Scopes

The American flag on Pinty’s website shouldn’t fool you—these scopes are made in China. But they could still play a role in your gun safe. Not an important role, but something you can use and abuse and not worry too much if it ends up at the bottom of a pond.

If you don’t know about Horus reticles, I strongly suggest you look into them. When they say they are the official reticle of USSOCOM, that isn’t an exaggeration. If you have been waiting to get into the precision game, this is the only way to fly.

Primary Arms new SLx 1x Compact Prism Scope ACSS Cyclops has ALL of the advantages of a red dot but NONE of the negatives. How? Well, it…

For a beginner that wants to get started in long range shooting or precision rifle competition, the RT25 is a very good option. If anything should go wrong with the scope it’s covered by the Burris “Forever Warranty”.

To test out Trijicon’s VCOG 1-8×28 riflescope and to see how well the controls tracked, I did my version of “shooting the box.” My very short version of the longer story? The Trijicon VCOG 1-8×28 riflescope was and is an amazingly good and functional optic.

If you are looking for a scope for precision competition or the hunt of a lifetime you owe it to yourself to give the NX8 offerings a serious look. I think the NX8 F1 line of scopes with the wide range of magnification choices, focal plane options, Mil or MOA adjustment options, reticle options, and illumination choices leaves little else to be desired.

For the past 20 years, long range shooters have been looking for a scope reticule that incorporates both hold over and wind and will work with a multitude of various calibers. The problem has always been compromising precision for ease of use and adaptability to multiple calibers. The Tremor 3 reticle accomplishes having an exact holdover system and a precise wind hold system that is really quick to use in the field.

It seems that everyone is making a budget rifle scope these days, but that is a great thing! Competition leads to innovation in the industry and lower prices for the consumer. Viridian Weapon Technologies has a line of optics and I’ve been playing with the pinnacle of their lineup: the 3.5-10×40 SERAC.
