First Look At This Scope

For transparency, I am a Riton ProStaffer, however that does not mean I will skew reviews. I stand by the Riton brand. I wouldn’t be a ProStaffer if i didn’t.

I have the Riton MOD 5 6-24x50, the MOD 7 4-20x50 and the X3 6-24x50. I am a Special Forces Qualified Sniper and I have been in the US Army for 21 years, mostly Special Operations. I have seen some pretty of the chain optics over my time. Thus, I hope this review helps your decision in the right Riton optic for your rifle and needs.

Ok so the first look review:
Riton has improved its optics from the MOD series. This X3 has very audible clicks in the elevation and windage knobs, an integrated throw lever, and a zero stop system that will help you find zero when you forget to turn the dials back.

The integrated throw lever is awesome and a much needed improvement from the MOD series considering the zoom adjustment is tight, but smooth.

Unlike the MOD 5 I have, the whole reticle Illuminates. Also, there are 6 power settings of illumination with “off” between each setting. In my opinion you only need off and on.

The zero stop turret is probably my favorite feature because I forget to turn the dial back to zero every time �� be careful not to over tighten the screw or the locking mechanism when you install.

Over all, so far I have yet to shoot with it, I love the optic and it’s a great improvement from the other two I have.
