SavageHunter11's Review of Vortex OPMOD Strike Eagle Limited Edition 1-6x24mm Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)
Bought this scope to put on an SBR-AR15 that will function as a truck/trunk gun because of Vortex's phenomenal warranty if anything happens to it while transporting. Overall this is a great scope. A couple of surprises with this scope was there is a storage compartment for an extra battery under the windage cap (very neat) and the thought that was put into the reticle for quick shots at range. There are a few things that I wish were better though. At x1 power there is some definite fish-eye effect going on and I would not suggest this for any sort of competition. Also, the reticle is just a bit thick. It's thick enough that if you want to shoot over 200 yards the reticle is going to cover more of the target than other scopes. I know it's not a scope meant for precision but a slightly thinner reticle would be nice. Overall, I think the scope is worth buying. If it wasn't Vortex's amazing warranty I would say it's a tad overpriced but the extra peace-of-mind of their warranty makes up for it. One last thing to note, the picture shown is dead on for the color. They advertise the color as matte but this is an anodized finish and has the same shine as black anodized finish. It's not much of a shine but it's too much to be considered matte in my opinion.
Pros:
- Excellent value
- Reticle Design
- Vortex Warranty
- Extra Battery Storage
Cons:
- reticle thickness
- fisheye effect at 1-power
Best Used for:
