Vortex
Optics Strike Eagle 1-6x24 Speed and versatility - that's what 1X Variable
optics offer AR shooters who need to engage targets from point-blank out to
extended ranges. And that's exactly what you're going to get with Vortex's new
StrikeEagle 1-6x24. Take into consideration what it costs to get into this
optic, and you may find you can't afford not to buy it. Whether
you're burning through a 3-Gun Stage, logging some range time, or holding for
hair on coyote you've duped into thinking you're lunch, the Strike Eagle is up
to the task. High quality, fully multicoated lenses deliver a clear, crisp
sight picture and optimal low light performance. A true one-power on the low
end of its 6X zoom range provides quick target acquisition in close quarters
scenarios. Need to engage targets at distance? Crank it up to 6X and let it
rip. The
illuminated, glass-etched BDC reticle subtends with popular .556 cartridges.
Illumination dial is located on the left side of the turret housing and
features eleven intensity levels to accommodate varying light conditions and
shooting scenarios. An extra battery can be stored in the windage cap and
released for use with the tip of a bullet. Reticle focus on the eyepiece
ensures reticle appears tack-sharp. A raised rib on the magnification ring
facilitates fast magnification changes in the heat of action. Built on a
30mm one-piece machined-aluminum tube with hard-coat anodized finish for
durability. O-ring sealed and nitrogen-purged for waterproof and fogproof
reliability. Top your AR
with the Strike Eagle and wring out every last bit of its
performance. Available Summer 2015 Buy just the scope: Vortex 1-6x24 Strike
Eagle Rifle Scope - $329.95 Or buy the scope with the SSALT mount and save $39.95 when purchased together:

Looks like it might be made in the same factory as Optisan CX-6 The specs are similar.
I am not convinced I like the reticle, but I will take a closer look at SHOT next week. ILya

Koshkin, is this reticle sort of like the GRSC reticle, or no?

No. GRSC reticle is specific to FFP scopes. This scope is SFP. |

Odd subtensions… almost like an afterthought. You're right… odd reticle… OK, I still don't care for Vortex...

I think it looks great. As long ss its good and tough. 3.5" eye relief should work well. Has the potential to become The scope on several of my rifles.

You are being watched.
