Rated 5 out of 5 by Justin from Great budget scope I bought this to replace another optic on my precision rifle. I'm super impressed by the features and quality at this price point. With my old optic, I was getting eye fatigue even after just short range sessions. After switching to the PST Gen2, that doesn't happen anymore. The glass/image is really clear, controls are very easy to adjust and the reticle is about as perfect as I could ask for. If I ever end up upgrading to a Razor, this will find itself on one of my AR's.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Golani2008 from A beast of an optic at an acceptable price I bought the 3-15x in the MOA reticle last year and put it on my long range .308, so I use it for target shooting out to about 800 meters maximum. I'm a proponent of having a large field of view (from combat experience), so not going up to the 20s helps me out quite a bit with quick target acquirement and awareness. The PST Gen II is definitely a bit heavy, but you know right away that the thing is a beast - I banged it about quite a bit on a trip backpacking with my rifle through the Arizona desert and it never missed a beat. The turrets are honking big thick sons of a guns, so you get great finger purchase on them as you're dialing in your dope. The zero stop function is fairly easy to use and doesn't require shims or anything crazy. Since I'm often changing altitudes on these kinds of trips, I need to easily change the zero, and the Gen II turrets help with that a ton. Optical clarity is unmatched in this price range, chromatic abberation is minimal to zilch, you name it. It's a great optic if you can afford it. Looks cool too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SOAR4 from Consistent and high quality! I own the first gen viper pst and love it. What a great value! A ton of scope for the money. Glass is very clear and comparable to glass 2x the cost. Tracks perfect, and nice palpable click on adjustments! Holds zero I couldn’t ask for anything better, if your shopping glass in this price range hands down the best value packed piece of equipment and most important part of any platform. I use mine for medium distance target shooting 1k yards with 6.5 Grendel. my experience is ex SOF, quality and value matter to me and vortex has a loyal customer with me.
