Crimson Trace Hardline Pro
The Crimson Trace Hardline Pro 4-16x50 is designed for shooters who value precision and adaptability in their optics. Equipped with an illuminated CT Custom MR1-MOA reticle, this scope excels at both mid to long-range shooting, offering clear and reliable targeting on a second focal plane. The exposed turrets provide smooth, quick adjustments, while the parallax adjustment on the left side allows for precise target focus. I found the lightweight anodized aluminum construction durable and well-suited to varying field conditions, with multi-coated lenses that enhance clarity and reduce glare. At 25.4 ounces, the Hardline Pro is waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof, backed by Crimson Trace’s trusted lifetime warranty.
Sightmark Core 2.0 TX
The Sightmark Core 2.0 TX riflescope stands out for its Ballistic Drop (BD) reticle, calibrated specifically for 55gr 5.56x45mm ammunition. This feature really enhances targeting and accuracy, particularly when using this popular caliber. I’ve been using it for a range of shooting scenarios, and the 1-4x magnification has proven versatile, making it ideal for both close-quarters and mid-range engagements. The 24mm objective lens diameter ensures excellent light transmission, delivering a sharp and clear image in various lighting conditions. The adjustable parallax settings, calibrated for 100 yards, allow for precise aiming without reticle shift at that range, making it a perfect fit for both precision shooting and hunting. With an impressive 140 MOA windage adjustment range, it’s easy to compensate for wind drift and dial in on target. Whether in competitive shooting or in the field, this scope offers accuracy and reliability that consistently delivers.
