Crimson Trace Hardline
The Crimson Trace Hardline 3-9x40 is built for shooters who need a no-nonsense, durable scope that handles everything from close to mid-range engagements. Featuring a second focal plane CT Custom BDC .223/5.56 reticle, it offers precise shot placement with its 1/4 MOA click adjustments. While testing this scope, I appreciated the exposed windage and elevation turrets, allowing for quick, easy adjustments without needing tools. Its aerospace-grade aluminum construction and nitrogen-purged, multi-coated lenses hold up well in harsh conditions, staying clear and fog-free. At just 15.2 ounces, it’s a lightweight yet tough addition to any rifle setup, backed by Crimson Trace’s complete lifetime warranty for extra peace of mind.

With a 1-6x magnification range, it offers versatility in various shooting scenarios, from up-close encounters to moderate distances. The 24mm objective lens provides clear, bright images, while the illuminated reticle ensures visibility in low-light conditions. Built from aircraft-grade aluminum, the Banshee is durable yet lightweight, making it easy to handle in dynamic shooting environments. The scope includes an offset cantilever mount for easy installation, and its sealed, nitrogen-filled tube ensures waterproof and fog-proof performance.
