Solid addition to the Strike Eagle line
Just like the original 1-6x, this new Strike Eagle model is bringing a lot to the table at a price most can afford.
Second Focal Plane, illuminated reticle that is useful without appearing too "busy". Brightest setting seems daylight visible in the conditions I have had it out in.
Side focus from 20yds to inf and 80 MOA of adjustment really help this scope perform at longer distances.
Minimal distortion at higher magnifications but still a very usable image which is often the concern with high magnification and lower price points.
I mounted this on a .308 AR and have used it out to about 400 yds but it would be just at home on a chassis bolt gun or most other platforms.
A first focal plane model would be something I want to see Vortex add.

Great scope
Guys who dont like this scope can pound sand and are probably a member of a 6.5 creedmore moose hunting club. On sale for 299? How can you beat that? Turrets are fine, glass is clear, everything a little stiff till you wear it in. It's alot of scope for the money. And guess what it can do everything...

looks like a ferrari performance of a honda
This scope looks great with decent glass that is pretty clear. It came with a sun shade and a cleaning cloth. I gave it 3 stars because the turrets are mushy and the side focus knob has no markings. If your a beginner this would be a great scope, but if your knowledgeable and trying to cut corners o...

Review updated
2 weeks ago I was at the range shooting my big game rifle and had shot a 3 shot group. When adjusting the parallex knob, I noticed that the illumination dial didn't look right and was ready to fall off. I immediately contacted Vortex customer care and talked to Kate Frost. She was on it! My scope was on its way for repairs within an hour and I received it back as good as new, in less than a week! Thats the way you take care of your customers!! First class service, customer for life.
Pros:
- Best warranty in the business
Cons:
- Same as my other review
Best Used for:
- hunting and target mid to long range
Would recommend: Yes

Vortex Strike Eagle
Put this scope on an older rifle that I didn’t expect much from in terms of accuracy. Very impressed, for the price getting a scope that was originally probably 800 dollars was well worth it. Shooting great groups with confidence from a rifle I didn’t think could do it, and banged it around for a week on a deer hunt before making one perfect shot to get one. Recommend this scope if you need something that can make your shot count within reasonable yardage.
Best Used for:
- hunting
Would recommend: Yes

I bought this for my new rifle and have been really impressed with how clear the optics are. The zoom is more than enough. My friend shot my rifle the other day and was amazed at how nice the scope was
Pros:
- Clear optics
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes

Great Scope
Love this scope. Glass is very clear. The side parallax focus delivers a clear image. I couldn't find any negatives. Reticle is not too busy and illumination is excellent. Highly recommend. I have the 1-8 Strike Eagle on my scorpion, which is also excellent and wouldn't have really benefitted spending any more money.
Would recommend: Yes

Heck of a deal
Very nice scope, does everything I need it to do at an unbelievable price. Glad I got one before they sell out.If there are any available don't mess around buy one or two. Awesome scope.Wish it had a zero stop but I can live with that. Also this is a big scope (heavy) so if you already have a heavy rifle take this into account.
Pros:
- Clear optics, awesome tracking, does what it is supposed to
Cons:
- Heavy
Best Used for:
- Target, hunting, recreational shooting
Would recommend: Yes

Vortex Strike Eagle
It is great glass for the price!I have numerous other vortex products and the warranty is fantastic. This scope seems to hold a zero even in rough conditions with multiple elevation and windage adjustments. Drops back to center each time. Very happy with my purchase.
Best Used for:
- Hunting, target practice
Would recommend: Yes

vortex strike eagle 4-24
Very useful reticle. Clear glass. Eye relief critical at higher powers. Great scope for the price. The 6x zoom makes the scope useful for both hunting and long range target shooting. Well worth the wait.
Pros:
- Great warranty.
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes

Still waiting.......
I have been on the waitlist for this scope since March 2018. What’s the deal? Anybody else having the same issue? I was told I was in the 30’s for the last fulfillment order. Is this optic in demand or what? I can’t wait to test it out if it ever magically becomes in stock. This is the unicorn of optics.
Pros:
- Seems like a potentially awesome optic.
Cons:
- You might die of old age before you get one.....
Would recommend: Yes

James W. Nix
Probably a great scope as others have testified to, but I ordered this scope from O/P on October 17, 2018 and have still not received it (01/20/2019)!!! Not O/P fault I guess but when I called Vortex directly recently, they said it may be March-April before I get it!!! They said they were overwhelmed with orders as they hadn’t expected the scope to sell that fast!
Would recommend: Yes

Has features found in much higher priced optics
Ok, one review stated it's a long wait, and that is true. IRS because this scope is really that good. I now own 2 of these and waiting for a 3rd. I'll give you my actual experience with this scope. Very bright and clear glass, a little fog at edges when using full magnification. Both scopes passed box test and ladder test with flying colors. I love the EBR-4 reticle. Makes windage adjustments easy at distance. Lit reticle great for low light shooting. Consistent adjustments up and down. I use this scope for PRS out to 1250 yards. This scope is as good as my $1000 scopes. No B.S. I feel sorry for the reviewer who opted for a Nikon... just not in the same realm.
Pros:
- Accurate adjustments
- Lighted reticle
- Bright & clear
- Zero adjustable
Cons:
- a little heavy
Best Used for:
- Long range competition or hunting
Would recommend: Yes
