[QUOTE="Street Rat, post: 740847, member: 2802"] I took my M&P 15 out to the range and while I wait for the funds for a good scope, I was playing with a cheap scope, very cheap. I had it sighted in pretty good at about 25 yards, then went to about 75 yards and the results were not good. The target I was shooting at was about 16x20 with 5 red dots like the five dots on dice. At 75 yards I shot 30 rounds taking turns at each red dot. It was hot so I was not going to make several trips down range to check where I was hitting. Anyway when I retrieved the target, I had only hit it about 8 times, and they were all high as if I were aiming at the lower dots and hitting high just above the top two on each side. I've used the iron sights before at 50 yards and acutally surprised myself a little. What is my problem here, is it the scope? I know it's cheap, but I thought basicly, a scope is a scope. [/QUOTE]
