Wow, I can't believe this at $95!!! (Natchez is having tax refund optics clearance sale) - https://www.natchezss.com/viridian-serac-rifle-scope-6-24x50-30mm-sfp-etched-vfd-2-black
Natchez is selling Viridian Serac 6-24x50 (30mm tube), 11 coatings lens, side focus parallax (25-800 yards then infinity), SFP, locking external 1/8 MOA turrets, etched VFD-2 reticle and flip covers. While Natchez ad shows 7 year warranty but Viridian website shows "Iron Clad" lifetime warranty - https://viridianoptics.com/serac-landing-page
I would say you are essentially getting Vortex Crossfire II comparable scope in lens clarity and brightness (Crossfire II has slight brightness edge in dark shadows for my post cataract 100% light transmission Vivity IOL implant eyes but really no difference with any amount of sunlight) with extra features and hefty 24.7 oz (It's built like a tank).
Viridian Serac replaced Burris FF E1 6.5-20x50 (1" tube) on my accurized 10/22 with KSA bull barrel/Magpul MOE X-22 stock and while I had planned on replacing with Vortex Crossfire II, after getting EGW 20 MOA scope rail which brought Serac crosshair to center of turret adjustment and since it did so well during 6000 round break-in/accurizing testing with 10/22, I think I am going to keep the scope as I like the side focus for 50-100 yard switching of target range and prefer the external turrets over Crossfire II's internal turrets. At $95, it is likely the most under rated brand name 30mm tube 6-24x50 scope with lifetime warranty.
I just bought two with $20 shipping so $105 each before tax. (I paid $150 for mine and last price was $169)
BTW, pictures from review thread - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.p...-focus-sfp-long-range-reticle-for-150.900740/
