Vortex Feedback Wanted

[OhioChief]

Thanks. I'm trying hard to buy everything in my life Made in USA. But that's not easy. I hoped these were. Doesn't say anywhere on the scope or box where it's made. At least now I know, and thank god it's not made in f'n china.

The phillies make great stuff a majority of the time.

1911s included.

After over a year of looking around for one,I finally was able to hold and look at a Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50.
It was very clear glass,on par with Sightron SIII,Nightforce,and other scopes in the $750-1500 range.I personally don't have a need for the busy EBR reticle,but others like it.
I have a few scopes with FFP,and unless you really have a use for them,a SFP scope will suite you fine.

I've been very happy with the 4 Sightron SIII 6-24x50 scopes that I have,so I doubt I'll buy a Vortex anytime soon.

I must chime in again as my vortex viper and is always on full magification and is mounted on my 7mm mag and though I didn't hit myself I feel it brushing my glasses so as I need bi-focals I maybe giving a skewed or unfair post to that extent please note this! And when I shoot my other scopes they offer to me in my glasses a better eye relief, and my earlier post is informative to eyeglass wearers not to flame the quality of the glass or the scope.... As this is the Highroad I feel I must abide by our standard.

If an item on our site states "ships within 24 hours," that's the indication the item is in stock. Any future dates mean the item is not on our shelves for immediate shipment to you, and that we are awaiting a stocking shipment direct from Vortex.

I have the Wilson scope mount. It works very well it has perfect relief and height and mounts solid. Its a solid mount.

Only handled a Fury bino (a gift to someone); great glass and and build quality for the money at a discounted price. And the warranty ... well, you have to read it yourself on their website.

A-Fixer.....much of us this thread was referencing the Viper PST. You indicated you were using a Viper. Not sure if you meant Viper PST or not....there is difference.

If you check the specs, you'll find the Viper PST has nearly 1" more eye relief over the Viper. While I always wear shooting glasses, I've never had an issue with my Viper PST and my glasses. If I did, I wouldn't be using it nor recommending it for consideration by others.

Been doing so much research my head hurts at the end of the night. My choices have been narrowed to the Vortex listed or a Millet LRTS. It's a stepping stone until I can get a Zeiss.

 

[A-FIXER]

Yes it is not the PST, Just the viper took it out again today and had another shooter give his thoughts they were about the same. To those that owners of the PST enjoy.
