Most Helpful Positive Review Cronus is just what the Doctor Ordered

Great quality glass and mechanics

by Ryan, from NE, United States Written on October 24, 2017
I have shot different Nightforce and Vortex Viper scopes in the same class as the Cronus, and I don't think the Cronus gives up anything to either one of them. The scope is built like a tank and I have had zero problems with it on my 300 Win Mag. The price point for what you get is really good too. I will be buying more of these for future long range rigs.
Pros:
  • great reticle
  • Top notch glass
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Long range shooting
Would recommend: Yes

Nice Glass but no lens caps or sunshade included

by Nick, from OK, United States Written on June 5, 2017
At this price point one should expect a sunshade and lens caps. Nice glass and reticle. you have to use an allen wrench to set your zero stops. very heavy (good for me but not everyone). quality looks good
Would recommend: No
