Its rugged waterproof, shockproof, and fog-proof design protect it even in the harshest elements, and its battery life means it’ll keep going and going and going no matter how long you use it. If you’re in the market for a new red dot, I’d give the Vortex SPARC Solar a look.

It’s a jack of all trades stock that could do very well built up as a long-range hunting rifle or precision rifle for long-range competitions. I think Grayboe hit a home run with this stock and if you’re in the market for a composite stock, the Phoenix deserves a hard look.
