Just showing the Nikon P-223 3×32 scope in action, This is a really nice scope at the given price range and will hold a zero well. The only thing I don’t like about it is the “exposed turrets”. The primary disadvantage of exposed turrets is bumping your scope off “zero”, especially in a close-quarters situation where you don’t have time to check your zero each time before pulling the trigger or go to your gun. They also tend to be taller (so they can catch on more objects). For are mid distanced scope the “non exposed” turrets would be perfect, however all that said it’s a must have for your rifle if your looking for something to hunt with or to get you better accuracy over irons or 1x red dots.

I had rifle training where we used exposed turrets, we knew where our zero's were and adjusted for range and windage on longer range shots.
Very good, thanks for sharing.
Before he looks through the scope his finger is on the trigger. Stupid!
No… The first "slash" on the reticle is 400yds, and the 2nd "slash" is supposed to be 600yds, when you are using 55gr bullets and the rifle has been zeroed in at 200yds. Personally, I think they should have used a bullet weight in the mid-60gr's, and also done the zero for 100yds; the first slash for 200yds, 2nd for 300yds, and maybe done a few more slashes…
I guess, they didn't because the trajectory of the 2.23 is pretty flat, and only people in the military, or people shooting prairie dogs are going to go out to 600yds! The scopes they use are just a LITTLE BIT different, too 😛
Used this scope for a good 200 rds of good handloads (mine). My rifle loves the 55gr nos. varmentor over 23 gr of h335. 68 and 75gr hornady bthp match over a similar load. mag primers.
Unless you have REALLY good eyes (read "young") this is a 50 -100 yd scope.
Picture is really clear, holds zero (even with my UTG QD rings). Great scope for what it is. Doing my part, i can get dime size groups but usually 1" is common with this. Bit more power my groups would improve greatly. This is at 50yds. So figure this and the rifle are good for 1-2" moa.
Eyesight may vary. Suggest a bit more power tho.
Looks like you used the Nikon P series 2 piece mounts…are those any good? I just bought this scope and I'm really wanting a 1 piece mount with QD option.
You got the yardage wrong on the reticle….the first dot below the cross hair is 400 yards and the 2nd is 600 yards…..zero at crosshairs is 200 yards
I believe you are incorrect on the "hash marks" of the p-223 scope, cross hairs is 200 yes. Next mark down is 400, then 600 yes. The p-223 is a bcc 600 yd. scope, read the specs. And instructions.
The crosshair is 200 yds, first hash mark is 400 the next is 600, top of the post is 700. You need to study the information that came with the scope. Your putting out bad information.
Keep your finger off the trigger when your adjusting the lead sled, poor form. The exposed turrets are no more prone to being bumped than any other scope, some 10X the cost, are. It's a great scope and Nikons mounts for it are great too.
Guns and weed don't mix dude.
lay off the booze,dude.
Do you like the scope I'm thinking about getting one on eBay?
Dont understand the bad votes, video's awesome thanks man for sharing it with us!
you should read your manual, this scope is zeroed at 200yrds, and the hash marks are for 400 and 600 yards
Your zero is off….. you lose a 15 feet every addational hundred yards to your intended target and point of impact.
Getting same scope. Can you tell me what kind of mount that is exactly? I need to make sure this scope is high enough for my fixed front sight like yours. Thx!!
I use the Nikon ballistic chart and the reticles are always around 300 500 and 600. I do use 5.56 and .223 with 55gn to 75gn, and not much different. Tell me if I'm doing anything wrong. I don't know how you got your numbers, cause that's way lower than mines.
My type 97 with pla scope could outshoot your pos anyday you probably get like 6 moa lulz
i wonder how many anti gun people own nikon cameras lol
Can I has that AR Tmh???
Shooting from a lead sled, you better hit the bullseye.
sweet scope… usually can't go wrong with a Nikon.
Is Cokeman dead/rehab ? What about catfishman ?
u wot m8?
That gun is hella sexy with that scope
