Alright, I'm heading out of town tomorrow, so I bit the bullet (so to speak   :rolleyes:) and bought the Bushnell AR optic 3-9X for $137 + 9 shipping and will get a $30 rebate from Bushnell (Ineedmoregear.com).  Couldn't argue with the price point, though the extra 1/2 pound might not be fun.  This will put my gun to the 8 1/2 pound mark with a 16" barrel.

I won't get it mounted and shoot until after March 4.

Thanks for all of the input.

Loki, i dont know if your aware or if this has been mentioned but be sure to get the correct scope rings for the AR.   They should move the scope forward. A nice solid one piece ring/mount works well.  This will help give you proper eye relief.  Regular scope rings put the scope in an akward position.  I just went trhough this a few months ago myself.
