Anyone have the new MeoSport R 3-15x50 RD SFP and can provide quick opinion on performance and especially low light? Would it compare to Vx-3hd glass or ? for as low light performance. This would be a set and forget for 100 to 200 yard shots...mainly 30 to 45 mins after offical sunset. Thank you.

Bump it up for the same question

Can't believe no one has chimed in on this.

I think nobody has responded because I can’t possibly see a need for that much scope on 1-200 yard shots. For what it’s worth, Meopta has some really good scopes at that price point, but a 1-6x is probably what you need. Good luck!

I have one on a Tikka T3 Varmint rifle.It has zero stop 1/3 inch adjustments which are right on the money.For the money an excellent dialing scope .In my opinion better than a VX 3 HD.Has hydroscopic lens coating.Nothing in its price range touches it.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience

I have two of them, and they have performed well. The optical quality mirrors that of the original Conquest line, the center dot is relatively small, and the illumination goes very, very dim -- lower than any other Meopta offerings I have tried.
It's good enough to use in strong moonlight for predators or hogs.
While there are things I would change for my own preferences, including a heavier center wire for the reticle, I have no legitimate complaints. So far, both scopes have done very well.

I was curious about this scope as well and finally saw a review that showed the actual reticle. I'd also want to see something with a heavier wire in the center, possibly in the 2-10x range. That thin center section is just too light for me and would require illumination be turned on well before I need it on most other scopes with bolder center sections. More or less a deal-breaker for me. Meosport R review by GunsAmerica

Thank you all for responding, and this was the information I was seeking. I had new Burris FF2 3-9x50 I decided to mounted on Weatherby Vanguard Sporter 2 I purchased back during Walmart's Weatherby closeout and was getting ready to take it to the range to sight it in when I came across Outdoor life Best Rifle Scopes for Deer Hunting of 2022 and seen they rated the Meopta MeoSport R 3-15×50 RD Best-in-class low-light performance, so I was pondering of purchasing one to replace the Burris if the low light performance was really this good.
I don't care for the looks of the turrets... especially the parallax and illumination adjustment, but it's something for me to continue to ponder on based on low light performance for a deer rifle.
Thank you all again.
