Vortex Golden Eagle HD

The Vortex Golden Eagle HD 15-60x52 is a powerhouse for precision shooters and competition enthusiasts. With its impressive 15-60x magnification range, this riflescope is built for those who demand sharp detail at extreme distances. The high-density, extra-low dispersion glass ensures crystal-clear images with edge-to-edge clarity, essential for identifying small targets or reading mirage. Designed with competitive shooters in mind, the Golden Eagle HD features an ultra-fine, second focal plane reticle, allowing precise holds without obstructing the view. Its side focus adjustment and 1/8 MOA clicks provide unparalleled control over elevation and windage adjustments. Lightweight yet durable, the Golden Eagle HD is as functional as it is robust, making it an ideal choice for long-range target and benchrest shooters.

Sightmark Pinnacle

The Sightmark Pinnacle Riflescope stands out as a top-tier optic, ideal for a wide range of shooting scenarios. With premium Japanese glass and fully multi-coated optics, the image quality is exceptional, offering clarity that competitors struggle to match. Whether you're a competition shooter or a dedicated hunter, the Pinnacle’s first focal plane reticle ensures precise holdovers at any magnification, while the zero stop elevation dial guarantees repeatable accuracy with every shot. I’ve spent significant time testing the Pinnacle in various conditions, and the red/green illuminated reticle truly shines in low-light environments, powered by a CR2032 battery. Whether you're shooting at close range or pushing out to longer distances, the reticle’s illumination offers quick target acquisition and the flexibility to adapt to different lighting situations. The scope’s robust construction, with options for capped or exposed turrets, offers durability and customization, allowing you to fine-tune your setup for any challenge. The combination of features makes the Pinnacle an excellent choice for those who demand both precision and versatility.
