I got the little bullets at 300 grains.
This 458 SOCOM build at the same time as a 6.5 Grendel is killing me but damn it is going to be fun when they are done.

It's going to suck when you flip the boat they are in.

You can shoot 300 win mag for cheaper than that.
But I cannot shoot 450 grain 300 WM

I think I've settled on 22 Nosler for my next build.

Ordered the final bits for my new AR. Picked up a BCG, a nicer charging handle and a Vortex red dot. Found a good deal on it at Brownells. Only thing left are some flip-up BUS... I think. Then of course to wait on Santa to deliver the upper.
Academy has a deal where you buy this scope and get the cantilever mount for it for free. So they got me. This should go nicely on my 300 Blkout SBR.

Glad you didnt post this about 20 minutes ago when I was right beside Academy
Magpul pro backup sights are nice.Ordered the final bits for my new AR. Picked up a BCG, a nicer charging handle and a Vortex red dot. Found a good deal on it at Brownells. Only thing left are some flip-up BUS... I think. Then of course to wait on Santa to deliver the upper.
I had one of those. The problem you'll quickly come to realize is the reticle is to thick to make precision shots. That reticle is for making fast hits on steel.

That's Mr Asshole to you
I'm looking at that scope for my 450 bushmaster.
Look at the 1-8x as it had a slightly better reticle or check out the scopes made by Primary Arms.
Which ACSS reticle for .450 Bushmaster? - Page 1 - AR15.COM
Which is fine. It really is not a precision setup as an SBR. It is more of a "make it dead and move on" setup.

@tx_shooter How much was it? I was looking at the 1-8 version. Want to put it on my Sig AR.
I've got those on all the others and I like them... will get another set for this one as well.

Out the door at $325. I just got it on the SBR and like it so far. It may not be a fine mildot reticle but I have no doubt I can hit a decent target. It is not like I intend to precision shoot past 300 yds with my 300BlkOut. If I get a similiar optic I for the 458 SOCOM I would be hard pressed to push it past 200 yds.
It's hard to make it dead when the reticle covers up the neck & chest at the same time
