Century C308 is kind of a reincarnation of the famous HK91/G3 .308 rifle. While most of them will consider this as a clone. Century would rather say it’s inspired. We were not here to fight for Clone Wars, rather we were here to settle down on the C308 and make it our endgame-worthy rifle.
C308 fires .308 cartridges with high precision and speed. It’s based on AR-15 design, it performs as well as an AR15 should. To increase that performance and help you become a better shooter, you must pair your C308 with a riflescope.
With so many options out there to choose from, it’s not as easy as it looks. Don’t worry. Leave the hard lifting to me. You just sit there relax and enjoy the read. Let’s find out some of the best scopes for Century C308.
Best Century C308 Scopes [Editor’s Choice]
1. Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6×24 Rifle Scope
Vortex is a leading scope manufacturer. Their scopes are some of the best in tactical shooting and hunting. They have a large fan following as well. Each year, they try something different to please that different crowd.
The products released under the Razor banner are often on the expensive side and offer a lot of features. Razor HD Gen II is a hunting riflescope with a maximum magnification of 6x. It’s not a long-range scope. Rather it’s a medium-range riflescope with a very good base and maximum magnification. The magnification ring of this scope is very smooth to operate as well.
The housing is made out of some of the best types of aluminum out there. The weight of this scope is 609 grams. That’s pretty light considering how big of a scope this is. The lenses of this scope are sealed with an O-ring on the scope. That prevents water from going inside the scope.
The lenses of the scope use HD glasses. They are fully multi-coated as well. They perform better than your regular scopes. As the lenses are clearer and brighter, the low-light performance of the scope is highly praiseworthy.

2. Burris 200437 MTAC 1-4×24 Illuminated Scope
MTAC 1-4×24 is a tactical and hunting riflescope from Burris. Burris doesn’t need any glorification as their products are enough. MTAC has a magnification of 1x to 4x. With 4x magnification, you can shoot at short to medium-range targets.
To make it compatible with rifles like Century C308, Burris made this scope with aluminum. Durable and sturdy housing is shock and waterproof as well. As there won’t be any moisture inside the housing of the scope, it will perform excellent in cold weather as well.
The lenses of the scope are fully multi-coated. Brightness isn’t an issue to this riflescope at all. It gets plenty of bright under different lighting conditions. On top of that, the reticle of this scope is illuminated. That’s right.
Century C308 is a perfect match with this scope. As you won’t be shooting too far with a C308m this scope can match up the bullet drop quite well. Once you get the hang of it, you will find yourself hitting more targets than ever before.

P4Xi is a compact and lightweight tactical scope suitable for assault rifles. Steiner is one of the largest scope manufacturers. They are mostly known for their high-end riflescopes. P4Xi is a high-end riflescope as well.
The scope is made out of high-quality aluminum. The inside of the scope is filled with nitrogen to make it fogproof. Outside sealings are waterproof as well. The entire housing is shockproof. Thanks to that, all the adjustments won’t move around with each shot. Unlike some cheap scopes.

Things To Keep in Mind Before Buying
Finding the right scope may not be the easiest thing you ever do. But it can made a lot easier if you know what you are doing. Don’t worry, you don’t have to know everything. I’m here to help you in that matter.
Build Quality
A lot of scopes are made out of polymer as well. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with that. But cheap and polymer is not a good combination. They might use a bad-quality plastic and you will have a rough time with your scope. That’s why, it’s better to grab a scope with durable housing.
Lens Quality
Lenses are everything. They are your second pair of eyes. If they are not good, then you will have a hard time using the scope. Taking a clear pair of lenses is always the best idea.
Adjustments
Adjustment knobs tend to be different on each scope. Their tactility and how they stick to one place are also quite different. But having a scope without any kind of adjustment often backfires on us. That’s why, take a scope where you can adjust the windage and elevation at least.
Summary
Century C308 is a great rifle. You know it, I know it, the guy next to you knows it. But that’s not the point of this post. The point was to provide you with a good scope for your C308. That’s exactly what I delivered.
