I make no claim to be a hunter, but the hogs have become enough of a problem that I need to exercise some population control.

I have an AR-15 chambered in 6.8. I need some glass on it and I am wondering what you would advise to get the best bang per buck.

I am considering a nikon monarch in 2.5X10 (42MM)
Refurb trijicon ACOG
Zeiss in 4X9 (40mm)
Refurb Leupold 3X9


I would like to remove as many of these vermin as possible. I plan to sit and wait for them to come to me....not make my way down the creek hunting them.

I have a 6x24 bushnell 50ao ..ar15 in 223 I would be more than glad to help you with your vermin problem, I usually use my 300 weatherby mag on hogs, makes em really mad...for about a tenth of a second.hahahah....dustydooley@yahoo.com

We have Eotech 552's on all of our AR15's and they work great for hogs, especially around 50 to 75 yards. The Eotech 512 is nearly the same and a little cheaper.

Pilothawk,

Need some help getting rid of these pests?
Me and my gun are always availiable!

my buddy has a red dot on his and that thing is killer. go to the store and just look at one you will love it

I wouldn't spend a bunch of money for hogs unless you just want high-end optics. I bought a Pentax Lightseeker 0x-4x scope for my PC4 that works like a champ. It's a scope made specifically for the NWTF competition one year (don't remember which) so it's long eye relief but I usually shoot it on zero power. It just gives a good aiming point for old eyes.
