Crimson Trace Brushline
For hunters looking for a reliable mid-range scope, the Crimson Trace Brushline 4-12x40 offers a blend of durability and precision. This scope is crafted with a second focal plane custom CTC BDC reticle, providing accuracy up to 12x magnification with a 40mm lens. After field testing it, I noticed its simple windage and elevation adjustments, which make sighting in smooth and require no tools. The anodized aluminum build, along with waterproof and nitrogen-purged lenses, ensures it holds up in any weather. With its lightweight frame and spring-loaded zero-reset turrets, it’s a dependable optic that balances practicality with performance. Crimson Trace’s lifetime warranty further reassures you of its lasting quality.
