Which maven line was you talking about? I’m interested in them.
Rip meopta 🫡
Joe, I'm sure you have answered this question 1,000 times, so forgive me if I don't know. For what you do out in the world and possibly everyday, what would you choose MOA or Mil?
Heya I'm torn between the maven RS 1.2 and tract toric UHD. The UHD is on sale $894. The maven is $1200. Which would you say has better glass?
I am missing the Vector Optics Conquest lineup.
Bought 2 Zeiss Dyatal fixed 4X in 1974. Favorite. Light graet duplex and terrific glass. Also a Kahles 3-9 with a rapid elevation turret which can be exposed or capped.
Just got a Bergara wilderness ridge in 300 PRC and can’t make my mind up for a hunting scope, so you know who I came to!
I bought a tract optic rimfire once, and the eyebox was horrible. Maybe their higher priced scopes are better?
I aint trusting no body with a eye patch about scopes 😂😂😂😂
Hi Joe! Love your channel, good work! I own a CZ457 and need a new glass for precision benchrest shooting at 100 m. If you had a budget of +/- 750 Euros, which scope would you choose? Please help me, I need an advice of a .22lr master 😉 Greetings from Frankfurt 🇩🇪🇺🇲
What would you sugest over my vortex viper 2.5 10 44. For better light transmission in low light
I just purchased the Arken EPL-4 6-24 ×50 FFP with an illuminated reticle, an I can tell you since I took my Nikon Pro Staff 3-9×50 off my CVA Cascade 300 Win. Mag. , and put the Arken EPL4 on it using Winchester Deer Season XP ammo it now shoots lights out. The EPL-4 has helped my old eyes out that much. I will highly recommend the Arken EPL 4 to anyone.
But Amazon sells these products.
Joss❤❤
BOOM 💥
Thank You 🎉
Hi can you recommend what you think is the best budget lightweight scopes first focal plane x44 to x 50? I was looking at Bushnell and Viper Optics. I'm not going to be shooting Beyond 500 yds. It's a high-powered FX air rifle
How are the trijicon hunting scopes? Are they any good??
Why not Arken???
Not one vortex?
Joe do you think the Burris E1 is a good Optic? I’m an Old Ass DAV and need something kind of lightweight under 300 dollars I can see the Reticle on so second focal of course. Thank you my friend
Great videos, but the Freedom VX retical in your video doesn't match the reticle of that actual item from what I see on their website.
Have a look into Steiners, great glass too
Why do so many well many people royally mispronounce Leupold as Leo-pold?
Lov the channel dood .. could you recommend a 24 x50 size scope with a fine floating dot retical .. in the upper budget price range $1000 or bit more?
No nightforce 😅
4x12x40 vortex tactical on a 30-06 1000 yards no problem with it
