Sightmark Pinnacle

The Sightmark Pinnacle Riflescope stands out as a top-tier optic, ideal for a wide range of shooting scenarios. With premium Japanese glass and fully multi-coated optics, the image quality is exceptional, offering clarity that competitors struggle to match. Whether you're a competition shooter or a dedicated hunter, the Pinnacle’s first focal plane reticle ensures precise holdovers at any magnification, while the zero stop elevation dial guarantees repeatable accuracy with every shot. I’ve spent significant time testing the Pinnacle in various conditions, and the red/green illuminated reticle truly shines in low-light environments, powered by a CR2032 battery. Whether you're shooting at close range or pushing out to longer distances, the reticle’s illumination offers quick target acquisition and the flexibility to adapt to different lighting situations. The scope’s robust construction, with options for capped or exposed turrets, offers durability and customization, allowing you to fine-tune your setup for any challenge. The combination of features makes the Pinnacle an excellent choice for those who demand both precision and versatility.

Vortex Viper HS-T

The Vortex Viper HS-T 6-24x50 is a top-tier option for long-range hunting and shooting. With 6-24x magnification, it’s well-suited for dialing in distant targets, whether you’re in the open plains or a tree stand. The VMR-1 reticle offers clear, precise hold points, enhancing accuracy at any range, while the side focus adjustment ensures parallax-free targeting—ideal for hunting in rugged terrains. Built on a 30mm tube, the Viper HS-T is both durable and versatile. The fully multi-coated lenses deliver excellent light transmission, and the exposed turrets allow for quick adjustments in the field. Waterproof, shockproof, and fogproof, this scope performs flawlessly in all weather conditions, making it a reliable partner for any hunt.
