    Burris MTAC 1-4x Scope-which reticle:ballistic AR or CQ?

    I'm buying a Burris MTAC 1-4x Illuminated scope on my AR-15 for informal target shooting,hunting use (no competition use) and I can't decide between the AR-ballistic and the CQ-ballistic reticle. Anyone have any experience with either one. I can't post pics. Midway has the one with the AR-ballistic reticle on clearance. Any help will be appreciated. I bought a bunch of AR15 lowers for several projects; next is 300 BlK for boolits.....the optic stuff is new to me. Thanks.

    Mine isn't on an AR, but here goes :



    A few weeks ago, I shot my Siamese 98 Mauser 45-70. I use an M - Tac Burris scope, 30 mm tube, with etched in the glass illuminated reticle.

    Talk about a Deer killing scope !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My load was 24 grs. of 2400 with a small tuff of dacron softly seated over the powder charge. Accurate 405 gr. V wide flat point sized .4598 ".
    Wolf Large rifle primers.

    I zeroed the gun dead center at 50 yards.
    Moved the target stand to a full 100 yards, used the lower dot to verify my load would be
    in the kill zone at 100 yards, fired 2 rounds and put the rifle away.



    Here is my 100 yard target with the 2 bullet holes :



    Here is my Accurate , 405 gr. bullet :

    Ben,

    Nice shooting but you could just throw that bullet and kill something

    Thanks Ben: That CQ reticle is the one to have on the MTAC scope. I just looked thru one at the range this morning and ordered one.
