Any scope suggestions for a .50 Beowulf AR-15?
I was wondering if anyone has scoped one and what they thought was a good choice?

Considering the moderately heavy bullets, maybe you should get a scope that can really handle recoil; perhaps a Valdada tactical model with reticle movement or a lower-powered Leupold VX-3 or Swarovski Z6, which boast special erector-tube springs.

I put a 1.5-6X42 Burris MTAC on my 458 SOCOM AR15. Works perfect for 300 yards and in shooting.

Something along those lines would be good on your rifle.

If you only stick to short range, a 1-4X20 Nikon would also work. Or equivalent in another quality brand.
