Klem,
The Myth Busters episode refd GySgt. Hathcocks shot. Myth Busters did not debunk the shot, they used a down loaded .308 Rem 700 (1-11 twist) with a Sierra 168 MK shootting different scopes vice a Win 70 30-06 (1-10 twist) with AP shooting at the correct scope. They later correctly replicated the shot successfully.
Back-up irons depends on usage. Scope fails in a short range firefight then the 45 degee offsets work. I go with MagPuls on vehicle guns (AR rifles and pistols) zerod 100 or 200 yards depending on round used.
Currently Palmetto has a sale on MagPul sets for $50.00.
