1 SCOPE TO RULE THEM ALL
I was able to spend the majority of my time at the 2018 Las Vegas SHOT SHOW checking out the Vortex products. First off the price point caught my eye. Second the military discount and warranty really made me smile. Then the clarity blew my mind! I wanted a long range scope with a long eye relief due to trying it on a .338 Rem Ultra Mag. The crosshair tracking is phenomenal and I didn't want crosshairs that light up. The field of view at 6x all the way to 24x is just amazing. I could go on for days about how pleased I am. My friends have now bought the same scope after looking through mine.

Great Scope! I own 4 of theses.
I bought My first vortex viper scope back in 2015, and installed it on a Remington 700 in .308. It tracks perfect. Since then I have bought 4 more and installed them on all my long range rifles. All of them track perfectly, and return to zero! Thank you Vortex for supplying a great product at a great price, and standing behind it! I will continue to buy vortex scopes. And I have gotten serveral of my friends on the Vortex band wagon now! God Bless.

Great dual purpose scope
If you're looking for a dual purpose scope for hunting/target shooting you'll be hard pressed to find a better option. It seems a lot of shooters these days feel that if a scope isn't FFP(first focal plane) it isn't good. From a hunting standpoint the SFP(second focal plane) reticle is easy to pick up at any distance. For Target or long range shooting it still performs well. The turrets have very positive movents and MOA changes seem accurate. All of this in a price range that most shooters can afford. My only some what negative would the shims for the zero stop. It would be nice to incorporate the zero stop feature that the PSTII line has.
