Disclaimer; I work for a store/range that sells Vortex and I get them for cost.That being said I own Vortex binocs, spotting scope and several rifle scopes. I am always amazed at the cost:quality ratio of their products. I just spent the last 2 days with Viper 3-9x40 w/BDC reticle and couldnt be happier.All my stuff spends a lot of time being abused and I can't break any Vortex stuff yet. You cant touch the Viper at that cost and magnification plus features IMHO.
Good hunting, Mike R.
Ps I also get Leupold, Zeiss etc. at cost.


Don't wish it were easier
Wish you were better

Stab them in the taint, you can't put a tourniquet on that.
