Crimson Trace Hardline Pro
The Crimson Trace Hardline Pro 4-16x50 is designed for shooters who value precision and adaptability in their optics. Equipped with an illuminated CT Custom MR1-MOA reticle, this scope excels at both mid to long-range shooting, offering clear and reliable targeting on a second focal plane. The exposed turrets provide smooth, quick adjustments, while the parallax adjustment on the left side allows for precise target focus. I found the lightweight anodized aluminum construction durable and well-suited to varying field conditions, with multi-coated lenses that enhance clarity and reduce glare. At 25.4 ounces, the Hardline Pro is waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof, backed by Crimson Trace’s trusted lifetime warranty.
Sightmark Core HX
The Sightmark Core HX rifle scope combines a classic red illuminated dot duplex reticle with a large 56mm objective lens, offering superior low-light performance and ensuring bright, clear images even in tough lighting. I’ve found that the red illumination greatly enhances target acquisition, allowing for fast and precise aiming in various conditions. The side focus adjustment is a game-changer, offering parallax removal without needing to shift position, which is a huge benefit for ensuring accuracy in dynamic hunting situations. The scope
