So I have one of the Primary Arms 6X ACSS rimfire scopes, I've had it awhile and have no complaints. Decided to play around with a scope on my Ruger Mini 14 in place of the RDS I had on there, just to see what it's capable of with a magnified optic. And no, I'm not expecting it to magically become a target rifle with the addition of a scope, but I want to do some load development for it, and that's kind of hard to do with just a red dot.
So the rimfire scope is about the only thing I have on hand that's appropriate for size and magnification, but my question is, has anyone tried one on a centerfire? Yeah, the .223 doesn't recoil much, but it's still a lot more than a .22 LR, and I don't want to trash this scope. It's certainly not a high end scope, but I like it, and will eventually be putting it back on a .22, once I get a different mount for my Savage. Thanks, guys.
