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.

Sightmark Wraith

The Sightmark Wraith HD 2-16x28 Digital Riflescope stands out with its impressive combination of day and night vision capabilities. Equipped with a powerful 850nm IR illuminator and a 1920x1080 CMOS sensor, the Wraith delivers ultra-crisp imaging, even detecting objects up to 200 yards at night. The 8x digital zoom, paired with a 1280x720 FLCOS screen, ensures fine details are captured, whether in daylight or low-light conditions. What I found particularly useful was the versatile viewing modes, allowing a seamless transition from vibrant daytime color to black-and-white or green night vision modes. With 10 customizable reticle options in 9 colors, the Wraith offers adaptability for a wide range of shooting needs. Plus, the built-in 1080p HD video recording lets you preserve your hunts and adventures, making this scope a great tool for both performance and memories.
