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.
Sig Sauer Tango-MSR
The Sig Sauer TANGO-MSR 1-6x24mm riflescope combines exceptional value with top-tier features, crafted for versatile performance in the field. Part of the TANGO-MSR line, it includes an illuminated MSR-BDC6 reticle for precise aiming, factory-installed flip-back lens covers, and a removable thread-in magnification throw lever, all mounted on the durable ALPHA-MSR cantilever mount. Inspired by the acclaimed TANGO6T riflescope, a three-time US military contract winner, the TANGO-MSR brings advanced optical technology to civilian shooters. Designed for close to mid-range targeting, it offers a clear, bright view even at full magnification, making it ideal for precision at distances up to 200 yards.
