I have the 2-12x42. Like it. Pretty much every loopie I've ever owned crapped out between 800 and ,1000 rounds. I'm not there yet on the 2-12. So far so good. Time will tell. Reticle is a big game killer. Thinning it out would be mistake. Never had a issue load developing with a fat reticle. Just fit it to your target . pretty simple. Think the only thing I'd like changed on it is a capped windage knob. Dave
Only accurate rifles are interesting.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!........................ I will say the colored electrical tape on your caps is looking much neater... far more "professional". Congratulations!
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Welcome to the forum. I Respect that and welcome the open conversation. I had one of your range finders from camera land ny. Think it was the Midas 1 mile? It would not range a torso silhouette at 850+/-. With plenty of reflective objects around it. I’ll post a pic. I called and spoke to somebody (maybe you?) and got asked if I was using a tripod. I wasn’t but you guys still had me send it and replaced with a new one. Tried out the new one and same. So I sold it and told him about the tripod if he shoots that far. But, my other range finders don’t need a tripod even at their max range. Regarding your scope, I saw couple guys ask about low power hunting scope. This is a big thing that you and other scope manufacturers are missing out on. I get that you’re making what sells… ELR scopes for all the new long range wannabe or LPVO for tacticool D bags. There are still guys out there that want nice quality scopes not made in China for their brush guns or straight wall cartridge rifles. Lightweight, 1-6, 2-8, fixed 6x with out all the tactical BS. 32 or 40 mm I’m ok with BDC but don’t need the full blown Christmas tree . Thanks, Andre
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Vortex missed the mark as well with the LHT. Instead they make products to go along with the current fads. Think Bud Light. Lol.

Not sure why then”Christmas tree” reticle is a negative? Or why if you want 2-8 vs 2-12 you don’t just stop at 8? I get the made in China hate, but it’s misplaced. Being China’s #1 trading partner has probably deterred a war over Taiwan. Welcome to the forum. I Respect that and welcome the open conversation. I had one of your range finders from camera land ny.

Ken and David. I have looked else where. But there isn’t much selection in regards to quality yet affordable scopes in the lower power range. Look at the price old vx1 2-7, Same price or more than when they were new. Why stop at 8 power? Do I really need 2-12 with LR reticle on my 44 mag carbine? Wouldn’t the 1-6 Or 2-8 be more than enough scope ? Or Does it really need all the AR tactical reticle? Wide field of view is much more important to me when hunting the thick stuff vs max zoom. Make it 1.5-8 for all that I care.

Drool, Your AMAZINGLY long list,of very WELL founded Brokedick Insecurities,is funnier than fhuqk...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!? I'm VERY "surprised",that you can almost post a picture,by yourself. Almost! Hint. Hercules was 2 months old,on his first Buck. Illuminatti there,Wayne's world bottom and stock,with a 120 MB Smooch. Google as you MUST. Hint. BabyMan was a "whopping" 5 months old here and the splendors exceed your "life's" efforts. 6x MQ and some tape,for a 162 'Max. Google as you MUST. Hint. Try prying your kchunts from the couch and actually mashing a trigger. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!........................

Drool, I VERY much enjoy that your Woke Crying Karen Routine,is no fhuqking "Act"...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!? What were the "odds" of you feverishly reading my EVERY fhuqking word and gawking EVERY Splendid Pixel,if only to "live" vicariously and escape being you,for fleeting moments? Perhaps extoll upon what you "do" for a "living",which mandates the High Pitched Whining Brokedicktitude an AMAZINGLY long list of Insecurities? Hint Baby Man was 5 months old on his first Steelhead,which trumps your "life's" efforts. Hint. At least you "get" to read about it and ogle The Splendid Pixels,as you TRY to "convince" yourself,that you "could too". Hint. How come you are schlepping a Goat Fhuqk 10/22 with an Oil Filter "can" and Baby Man drives a Vudoo,with a HD MQ 1-6x Lit Bitch? Google as you MUST and Whine as you do. Hint. Try prying your kchunt from the couch and actually mashing a trigger. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!........................

How about a relatively light weight scope in the 2x7x36 range. This would be strictly a hunting scope. Don't need turrets or Xmas tree reticles. SFP with a duplex reticle. Something to compete with the Leupold 2.5x8x36. This. ^^^
