Thanks for posting the Deflave! Sounds like you had some good winds to fight that day.

Even RayBan's can't help get a Virginian laid.

Tough luck.

Update:

Round count is lost. Consider it a bunch.

Fellow Campfire reviewers (mtcurman) seem to like the scope. He very much enjoyed dialing and hitting consistently. So did THE Nash. Especially when it's directing my ammo...

A wee-bit bloody. Need to do more calling with it. Birds and deer have been a hinderance to fun.

When you put it on an AR does it become a GI Tract? Possible new model name there...

Flave don't [bleep] around, nice report.



I'm actually thinking about trying one of these.

https://www.tractoptics.com/products/riflescopes/toric-2-10x42-bdc



Thoughts?


Ever since my old faithful Leupold started acting goofy a week ago I'm willing to try something different...


But this has me wondering what happens below zero?

Operating Temperature Range
158Β°F to -1.4Β°F

I'd love to tell you but we haven't gotten there this year.

As you know.

If schit gets to -5 or better, I'll hit the range.

Why would you spend more on an 18.6oz unproven scope with crappy reticle from a company that thinks a 2 inch box "test" is "testing", instead of one of the most proven scope lines in existence that knows what they are doing and where people that actually shoot design their optics.



This scope had over 70,000 rounds on it before it was mounted on this rifle.

Seventy THOUSAND rounds. It's never lost zero, has tracked correctly since day one, has what is probably the best reticle of any scope for hunting, and the manufacturer doesn't have to bs in advertising to sale them.



This one has more than 120,000 rounds.... we stopped counting. It still works perfectly as it has since day one.

I'd be in "don't screw around" mode and get a scope that will actually work.

Not to mention last year they were $450 during their Black Friday sale.

Do you have a link where one can order that scope?


And how many rounds fired at below zero(F) temps?



I don't shoot all that much anymore but have noticed that cold temps seem correlate with scope issues.

Extreme temperatures cause all kinds of issues. I wasn't trying to be a jerk, but scope failures are the biggest cause of failures on guns by far and I hate to see people get bit.

That's it, but if you want to try one out, I have extras.

I think you would be very happy with it! As from the other Tract Toric reviews, there is simply nothing close to it in regards to quality in both optics and construction for the price.

Its no secret where these scopes are coming from and what goes into them. Either you choose off the shelf at a factory and do some tweaking, which there are some small optics companies who do this..... or design your own systems, and that's (the latter) what TRACT has done.

Currently, the only criticism TRACT has is from people whom have not used them because we are a 'new' company. Funny, there is never any mention as to the same quality tests are done at the same factories, or the years of development and testing the TRACT founders did before the launch. If you have never seen a force test done on an optic at a factory...its just plain cool to watch.

I think you'll find every reviewer that has used a TRACT Optic, including Flave, is quite happy if not blown away by the quality...and then hit with a second wave of 'mind blown' when they see how little that price tag is.

Feel free to send me a PM or post a message here if you have any questions!
