BURRIS Eliminator 5
The BURRIS Eliminator 5 is a game-changer for hunters looking for precision at long ranges. Featuring a powerful 4x-16x magnification and a 50mm objective lens, this scope provides crystal-clear clarity, making it ideal for varying shooting distances. The real standout is its built-in rangefinder, which instantly calculates the perfect holdover point for your shot. Whether you're targeting small game at close range or taking down big game at 500 yards, the Eliminator 5 adapts to your needs. I mounted it on my .308 and tested it through dense woods and wide-open fields, and it performed flawlessly—quick, accurate, and efficient. This is the kind of scope that makes every shot count.
Sightmark Core HX
The Sightmark Core HX rifle scope combines a classic red illuminated dot duplex reticle with a large 56mm objective lens, offering superior low-light performance and ensuring bright, clear images even in tough lighting. I’ve found that the red illumination greatly enhances target acquisition, allowing for fast and precise aiming in various conditions. The side focus adjustment is a game-changer, offering parallax removal without needing to shift position, which is a huge benefit for ensuring accuracy in dynamic hunting situations. The scope
