I don't know how in the hell anyone is supposed to take this test seriously when there is no nail polish on the screws and pretty colored tape. That was a great review. On a separate note, do you miss the Stick that much you need to invoke him to review the review? Why not just review the review? I agree, now look at what you did PaulBarnard !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like you have a very good barrel.

Have found JES rebores (and those from other companies, such as Classic Barrel & Gunworks) often shoot better than the original barrel. As more than one reborer has suggested, this may due to the heat built up during boring out to a larger caliber, which "heat-treats" and therefore stabilizes the barrel. And then the barrel is cut-rifled, which doesn't introduce any stress to the barrel.

Nobody cares what it looks like on 15x........... Question is........... Is it visible in low light from 2.5-10x? I doubt it.

I suppose it depends on what, where, and how one hunts. That reticle wouldn’t work for me, except on a rifle for shootings chucks, starlings, crows, etc. For me, this one is much better, with the T-Plex I like so well and a light. Kind of heavy for Grandpa, but he could manage it paired with the right rifle, under the right conditions. https://tractoptics.com/all-product...luminated-t-plex-dot-hunting-rifle-scope

Like most FFP all purpose reticles, this reticle could use some improvement, which I mentioned in my review. However, I also mentioned in my review that I was able to shoot a pig at sunset + 30 at 6x magnification, and the result was a very dead pig.

Nice review Hondo, thanks for doing it. I have personal experience with three different Tract scopes now and have nothing but good things to say about them.

Thanks for the definitive answer. If the scope is still in your "shilling" possession, a few pics of the reticle on low power would be appreciated. I actually don't need them though, your review wreaks of payoff and bias as the scope was "sent to you for review" by the company. Nice try though.....scope sucks....reticle sucks....and what kind of dumbass company offers illumination in 2nd focal plane only.....dumb fuggs from Nikon just haven't actually gotten anything right since Tracts inception.
Yep ...I've owned a few Torics....speaking from experience. You may find my non paid actual reviews on snipershide to be of benefit.

And the bullshit.....Tract Toric "Schott glass" comes from china........anyone serious about optics would know that "Schott glass" don't mean [bleep].
German Schott glass is not what you get with Tract.
Schott has German and Chinese glass ....Tract uses the china town version.
Tract still hasn't figured out how to make their scopes have a full image, they make Leupold Mark 5s look nice with their big black rings......
