Sig Sauer Tango MSR 1-6x24mm Illuminated MSR-BDC6 SFP Black Riflescope w/Alpha-MSR Cantilevered Black Mount SOT61000

Sig keeps pulling value out of thin air by making probably the cheapest LPVO still worth a buy at its price point of $299 (if it's not at this price, try finding a Burris RT-6) and including a mountain (just about $100) of much appreciated freebies. I own a few of its close competitors and it punches just a touch above its weight class considering its costs: - Glass is clear and rather bright: The Chinese glass in the Tango MSR is not as good as the filipino glass in the Burris RT-6, but competes well with the Vortex Strike Eagle. Very little fisheye-ing and distortion across its magnification ranges, with good light transmission. On that note, comparable eyebox to the Strike Eagle on lower magnifications, but the RT-6 is flat out better in this regard. Higher magnifications are mediocre all around. - Solid build quality: Nothing to write home about, its as good as a $300 optic can get. Turret threads seem to be substantial as well. Has a decent warranty behind it too (Lifetime repair/replace with 5 years for device electronics), but not as good as Vortex's. It's a pretty hefty sight, I believe an ounce heavier than both the Strike Eagle and the RT6. - Impressively bright reticule with (supposedly) good battery life: Trijicon-ish inverted horseshoe with unilluminated holdovers, 12 brightness levels. Has been running for ages now on 5 brightness, but you just gotta remember to turn it off: There's no auto timeout on this optic. - Freebies: Sig has somehow included a cantilever mount and two fold-flat scope covers with the OEM packaging. This normally costs you at least $60-90 for the mount alone and ~10$ for the scope covers if you're frugal about it. The cantilever mount isn't cheapo garbage either: If you can stand the Sig standard logo/text spam it is a solidly built mount uniquely matched up to the scope itself by means of a leveling line. The scope covers are pretty bad, but a touch better than the bottom barrel ones as these actually fold flat. All in all, this is unbeatable at $299. The top of your AR might become a Sig billboard but this is the deal with the devil you make for a out-of-box ready to go LPVO at this price point.

UPDATE: A week after I received this and mounted it, a well known and established company started selling these for $280 plus $10 shipping. This is $50 cheaper. I should return this one and buy the other and get my $50 savings. Excellent build quality with .556 BDC illuminated etched reticle. The eye relief is excellent at about 4". The field of view and parallax are decent as well. Very little fish eye. The only thing I would like to see improved is the eye-box. Because of my cheek weld I have horrible trouble staying in the field of view, because the eye-box has no wiggle room. I purchased a .42" riser which raised the LPVO from 1.535 to 1.955. I found this to be perfect for my natural shooting position. I can probably get by without the riser but a better eye-box would help tremendously. The cantilever mount is a bonus and is high quality and comparable to the other brands that sell for 80-150. Took this out for the first time after zeroing in at 100 yards with a laser bore sight. Shooting at 50 yards, the first group shot 3" left and 2" low. Got it zeroed in with 3 shot groups hitting bullseye on the 10th shot. The turrets are tight and moved the reticle as promised. Very solid turrets. Shots stayed true to zero after 60 rounds using 2 different ammo mfrs. This LPVO is definitely worth the price and I would for sure purchase again and again.

So, this is my first Sig LPVO. So far, it’s quite good. For the price, it’s really hard to beat. Illuminated, tough, and already comes with a mount. All for under $400? Yeah, that’s a great deal. The glass is clear with no noticeable edge image deformation (such as “fish-eye”). It is a true 1x (normal eye sight) when set at “1.” The reticle is crisp and intuitive for usage in short to medium ranges (3-300yards). The magnification adjustment is a bit stiffer than what I’m used to with my Trijicons, but not so stiff it hinders in anyway. Now, for the drawbacks. The eye relief is not nearly as forgiving as a Trijicon or Vortex, especially at max magnification. Likewise, it’s heavier than a comparable 1-6x from those manufacturers. But, the Sig is solid. I’d have no fears of dropping this scope and messing up the zero. My conclusion; this is a heck of a deal. If you’re on a budget and want the most bang for your buck, you can’t go wrong with the Sig MSR line (we’ve also tested the Sig 1-10x and it’s a great deal as well). You’ll notice a difference in quality if you put this side-by-side with a Trijicon. The Trijicons are just better made. But with the Sig being half the price, this is a magnificent deal.

Sig optics are great especially for the money.

Want a entry to mid level scope? Easy to mount, easy to use and easy to zero. Added it to an AR-15 and zero regrets. It does have remarkably clear glass and love the reticle (and it's illumination) which makes lining up and hitting targets very easy.

Clean clear great magnification easy to focus on target

Honestly, at the price point I was expecting less than whats given. The reticle feels informative but not over cluttered. Illumination is not quite bright enough to deal with AZ daytime brightness, but the illumination isnt necessary during daylight shooting as the reticle offers plenty without it. Switching from 1-6 is pretty breezy, a little tight but not unreasonably so. Turrets are super pleasant for the price point. Clicks and tactile response are adequate to be confident in the adjustment you are making. Sight picture is a little dim on the 6x mag setting but considering the small objective lens that is expected. All in all 4.5/5 for the pricepoint, with only a small amount to detract from the overall build. Would recommend

I bought this for my new AR based on internet searches and write ups. I was torn between this and holographic sight with a 3x multiplier. This is truely the best of both worlds between a scope and holographic sight. It has the same illuminated half moon targeting dot and you can use it on power 1x much like a holographic sight while at the same time cranking the power to 6x and using it as a scope. Glass clarity is amazing, illumination fully 10 stage adjustable, and day/night use equally great. It comes with a mounting ring/riser and is a super value for what you get.
