Leupold VX-3HD

The Leupold VX-3HD riflescope is a great choice for hunters who value clarity and reliability in the field. Its low-light performance is exceptional, thanks to the high-definition lenses and Elite Optical System, which ensures crisp visuals from dawn till dusk. The 4.5-14x magnification range is versatile, allowing precision shots at various distances, whether stalking whitetails or tracking big game. With a rugged yet lightweight design, this scope won’t weigh down your setup, and the ZeroLock CDS-ZL dial prevents accidental adjustments, keeping you locked on target. Add in Leupold's unmatched durability, and the VX-3HD proves to be a smart, durable companion for any hunting adventure.

Burris Droptine

When I decided to take on a weekend hunt in the rugged terrain, I knew I needed a riflescope that could handle both close-range and longer shots without adding unnecessary bulk. Enter the Burris Droptine 3-9x40mm. This scope strikes the perfect balance between magnification and lightweight design. It offers a solid 3-9x zoom range that’s versatile enough for anything from brush shots to reaching out at 300 yards. The Ballistic Plex reticle adds precision for those longer shots, and the optics deliver clear, bright images no matter the lighting. After putting the Droptine through a series of tests, it’s clear this scope is built for performance in the field.
