So clear it's scary - Vortex Crossfire II 3-9x40mm 1in Tube Second Focal Plane Rifle Scope

Honestly, I don't have any scopes on any of my rifles. They are either iron sights or red dots. When I decided I wanted a 6.5 Creedmoore bolt action, I knew I would need some form of optic. I did not realize that scopes could be so expensive! With 2 kids in college, dropping $1k (or even $500) was out of the question. What to do, what to do. So I began my search and lo and behold, my favorite professional shooter Jerry Miculek happens to be sponsored by Vortex. Jerry don't fool around with his gear so I figured I'd give them a look. Lifetime VIP warranty, stellar ratings, reasonable price. All pluses in my book. Ordered the scope up (along with rings) and could not be happier. The sight picture is EXTREMELY bright and the focus is razor sharp. While others may scoff at the modest price, don't be fooled into the "more money, more better" mindset. I don't mind paying more for performance, but to pay more for the same performance is just foolish in my opinion. Give this scope a look, I think you'll be pleased you did.
