Venom 5-25x56mm 34mm Tube
Written on Dec 04, 2025
Very nice and clear view through my window. I probably won't actually use it until spring, I'm not a big fan of the cold. This is my first Vortex scope, I have Arken, Shepherd, and Burris scopes of similar design. So far, the Shepherd is my favorite, but all are decent scopes for the distances I shoot (up to 600 yards), so I expect that I will be pleased with this one. If not, you will definitely here from me in a review come spring 2026.
Optics Planet has had the best prices, and I definitely recommend purchasing from them, especially if you wait for the Blazing deals or closeout sales.

Shaw AR-15 204 Ruger

Review for
Shaw AR-15 204 Ruger Threaded AR Barrel
Beautiful barrel. Sighted in for zero at 100yrds with 1st 10 rounds no problem. I'm done shooting for the year, it's getting too cold for me. I have heard nothing but good things about Shaw, so I don't believe it will disappoint. The real test will be next year though. If you don't see a follow-up review in 2026, you can assume I am very pleased. Optics Planet was very good about the back-order, they offered me a couple of options for similar barrels at near same price if I was impatient, which I thought was very nice even though I declined. So far pleased with the barrel and pleased with Optics Planet.

Burris RT-5 Ballistic 5x Red Dot Prism

Review for
Burris RT-5 Ballistic 5x Red Dot Prism Sight
Great price. Bought this to replace a Vortex 5x Spitfire. The Burris is far better than the Vortex. It's clearer and the reticle is less intrusive. It's a good buy, I'm very pleased. Considering buying another while it's on sale.
