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.
Crimson Trace Brushline Pro
The Crimson Trace Brushline Pro 3-9x40 is crafted with the avid hunter in mind, delivering precision and durability in a lightweight package. With a CT Custom BDC Pro reticle, this scope offers a clear, non-illuminated view on a second focal plane, making it a reliable choice for mid-range engagements. Its spring-loaded zero-reset capped turrets allow for smooth adjustments, and the windage and elevation knobs are easily accessible without tools, a feature I found convenient during field testing. Built with anodized aluminum, the Brushline Pro is waterproof, shockproof, and nitrogen-purged to ensure clear optics in any weather. Weighing just 15 ounces, it’s a practical, rugged companion, fully backed by Crimson Trace’s lifetime warranty.
