I never used one but was curious about them myself.

I ha e owned a AR in 300 and 223 , accuracy was good with both but I have just always liked the mini I have owned 2. Accuracy hasn’t been stellar with either one vote for my purpose they will work

Accuracy hasn’t been stellar with either one vote for my purpose they will work Seems like you know what you want then. Will it be a shorter range gun? I haven't set one up yet,but always liked the idea of an Aimpoint Micro set up like that. To me the scout scope thing looks like it works at close range better anyway,so I think I would prefer a Aimpoint Micro which is lighter than a scope with a 2moa dot and cal literally stay on for years for close range and use a normal scope on a longer range gun.

Or buy a Savage scout 110. Col.Cooper's concept was general purpose rifle for game up to 500lb's @300 yards plus defense.
Skinny is my EX.Alcohol was involved.

I figure the 7.62 is a max 200 yards rd on deer but I likely would be shooting half that. I have never had a scout scope set up. The pros and cons have been all over the board from the reviews I have researched . Seems some love it others hate it. I do have a bushnell red dot I thought about trying for the time being.
