Crimson Trace Brushline
For hunters looking for a reliable mid-range scope, the Crimson Trace Brushline 4-12x40 offers a blend of durability and precision. This scope is crafted with a second focal plane custom CTC BDC reticle, providing accuracy up to 12x magnification with a 40mm lens. After field testing it, I noticed its simple windage and elevation adjustments, which make sighting in smooth and require no tools. The anodized aluminum build, along with waterproof and nitrogen-purged lenses, ensures it holds up in any weather. With its lightweight frame and spring-loaded zero-reset turrets, it’s a dependable optic that balances practicality with performance. Crimson Trace’s lifetime warranty further reassures you of its lasting quality.
Athlon Talos
The Talos scope is built for the dedicated hunter, featuring fully multi-coated lenses that enhance light transmission for optimal brightness and true color across the entire light spectrum. Its etched glass reticle ensures durability and shock resistance, while the heat-treated one-piece tube design provides exceptional strength and moisture resistance, keeping the scope fog-proof for life. Nitrogen purging further reduces moisture inside the tube, ensuring waterproof performance in harsh conditions. With a versatile 4X magnification range, the Talos is ideal for various hunting scenarios, from whitetails in dense forests to prairie dogs in open fields. Choose from specialty reticle options like Center X, Mil Dot, or BDC600 IR for precise aiming and range estimation, empowering you to make the most of every low-light hunting opportunity.
