This may be a silly question, but is there such a thing as caliber specific optics?
I've been a little confused on this for a while and I can't seem to find a satisfactory answer. Some tell me certain optics will function better on other caliber rifles, chiefley between .308 and .223
Slapping an optic "usually" used on a .223 caliber rifle may have problems if used on a .308
This part I don't understand, since if the optic was worth its salt, it wouldn't matter what firearm it was put on as it should function flawlessly and not lose its zero do to recoil.
Can someone please clarify this? Am I being misinformed about this, is my assumption that it doesn't matter what firearm an optic is put on, that it should work fine regardless?
