Vortex Optics Recon R/T 15x50 Tactical Scope Monocular

In short, yes. Although the ranging silhouettes reach out to 600 meters, the hashmarks on the reticle are in MRAD and they provide you with about 100 mils of elevation from the top to the bottom and 100 mils of windage from the right to the left It is sufficient for more than 1,000 yards with 15X magnification. While Vortex glass is not the very best glass you can get, it is very It is my pleasure to own and use a few Vortex rifle scopes. They have allowed me to shoot beyond 500 yards and for a long time. A monocular of this quality would be comparable to a rifle scope. The only thing I do not like about this monocular is how heavy and large it is. The scope is a very good spotting scope when used in the role of a range instrument (it comes with a miniature flexible tripod that fits in the case), and it is adequate for an extended hunting trip on foot when used as a long range instrument. My son got the Solo R/T for Christmas last year, and it would be a better choice as an EDC equipment for everyday use. The Solo R/T is lighter and smaller, and it would be more convenient to carry daily in your EDC gear. Although it has the same reticle, it has "only" about 70 vertical and horizontal mils and offers an 8X magnification, which is more than enough for the majority of uses most of us would encounter. It can even be used out past 500 yards (in comparison, 4X magnification on an ACOG is effective out to 600 yards), in a package that is significantly smaller and lighter than an ACOG. Am I likely to recommend the 15X monocular to a friend or colleague? Yes, of course. Although I'm happy with my phone, the truth is that it is a little bit overkill for the vast majority of people in most situations.

In this optic, the focal plane is irrelevant since it has a fixed power. Despite its focusing ring, it does not have a power dial. Since there is no zooming in or out of the picture, where it is FFP or SFP is of no significance. However, the glass appears to be very clear, as it is The viscosity is at least as good as my Vortex Viper PST (FFP) 4 The 16x50 riflescope is a good scope As for the reticle, the standard Vortex MRAD appears to be here, with range silhouettes for 300m, 400m, 500m, and 600m in the right lower I thought it was going to be smaller and lighter, but it turned out to be much larger and heavier than I expected. A couple of years ago, I gave my son the 8x32 Recon R/T Tactical monocular for Christmas, and although it is less powerful, it has a host of advantages These two longer range rifle scopes, my 4- and 4.5-inch models, are the ones I own An 18x and a 5 This monocular doesn't even get used as a spotting scope because other optics with larger magnifications and reticles, such as the 20x, are more powerful at full magnification than this one. This is probably most useful to a sniper spotter for ranging targets when they are part of a two person sniping crew. This information is provided in the hope that it will help.

It has a daytime optic, as well as a dark optic A milling reticle that glows in the dark. There is a lot of clarity in the glass. Lunar eclipses can be viewed at night with it, but other than that, it has the same night time limitations as any other good optical device. It's awesome, and I carry mine around with me all the time. Even though the carrier has a belt loop, it's still too big to carry on the belt. However, I have used it a number of times. I even used it as a spotting scope at the range while I spotted

Both, while the binoculars will give you a broader field of view at a distance than the monocular will. It is very important, however, to have a good monocular glass This riflescope has HD glass that's on par with Vortex's riflescopes, and the mil-based reticle offers range options if you know what you're doing. In the end, I will carry binoculars with 10x42 apertures and a 1200 meter range finder instead of a monocular, which I haven't used much since it isn't quite so useful. For distances under 200 yards, I've used it primarily as a spotting scope at the rifle range.
