Burris Droptine

When I decided to take on a weekend hunt in the rugged terrain, I knew I needed a riflescope that could handle both close-range and longer shots without adding unnecessary bulk. Enter the Burris Droptine 3-9x40mm. This scope strikes the perfect balance between magnification and lightweight design. It offers a solid 3-9x zoom range that’s versatile enough for anything from brush shots to reaching out at 300 yards. The Ballistic Plex reticle adds precision for those longer shots, and the optics deliver clear, bright images no matter the lighting. After putting the Droptine through a series of tests, it’s clear this scope is built for performance in the field.

Vortex Optics Viper PST Gen II

The Vortex Optics Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50 is built for precision and performance, catering to hunters and long-range shooters alike. With its 5-25x magnification, this scope is ideal for extended ranges, providing clarity and detail necessary for critical shots. The illuminated reticle, combined with its precision-glide erector system, offers smooth magnification adjustments, which proves invaluable when conditions demand quick and accurate changes. Engineered with tactical shooting in mind, the Viper PST Gen II features an exposed turret with RZR zero stop, allowing you to return to zero with ease. Add in its rugged construction, and you've got a scope designed to perform in tough environments while delivering high-end features that make the shot count.
