Nice presentation and nice video too thumbs up for you. I dont agree with you when you say 34 mm tube hase more space for elevation, becouse in nowdays we have scope 30mm tube like swfa ss and they have 31 Mrad, Meopta ZD 6-24x56 its 30mm tube but they have 33 MRAD. Also we have 34mm tube and they have only 26 Mrad elevation like Schmidt bender, Kahles, Stainer. Truth is bigest tube you have thats means more lights transmision, better clearity in low lights condition.
@VortexOpticsUSA
@VortexOpticsUSA 4 года назад
There is more that goes into a scope's overall amount of adjustment than scope tube size, as you're pointing out, but all else similar, a larger tube size does give physically more room inside for the erector unit to move around, and therefore can provide more range of adjustment with the right equipment around it. With some advances, a 30mm or smaller tube can have a great deal of adjustment available, but even those scopes could have even more if the tube size were bigger. They would also get bigger and heavier, though, which is a tradeoff some scopes shouldn't make depending on their application. The argument that larger scope tube size allows for more light transmission and better low light performance is a very common misconception. Scope tube size does not correlate to light gathering capabilities or light transmission in any way. The scope tube is just a physical aluminum tube which the optical system lives inside. The optical system and its lenses have everything to do with light transmission and low light performance. A larger scope tube can only give the optical system inside and its mechanicals more room to move around and provide room for an optical system with a bigger field of view if all else is similar.

Im a bit confused when you say with the zero stop engaged you lose some of that adjustability range... isnt that for all scopes? If you have your zero stop engaged and you cant go below your zero (besides for the 5 extra clicks) isn’t all that adjustability below your zero gone anyway? Sorry if this question doesn’t make sense but I am not yet a true long range shooter, I haven’t shot out past 100 yards and had to dial in elevation so this is not something I 100% familiar with.
@brian1978503
@brian1978503 3 года назад
It means you can go 5 clicks below your zero stop and only 47 above it. Say you have your zero set at 100 yards with the zero stop installed you only have 47 moa of travel left above it and 5 below it. With a 308 that should be enough to still get you out to 1000 yards. which is somewhere around 39 moa plus or minus depending on your bullets bc and velocity.
@sethturner3245

So I've almost convinced myself to get the PST Gen II FFP riflescope, but something about the Strike Eagle is slowing me down from fully committing. I like the locking turrets on the Strike Eagle, but I believe once you install the RevStop Zero ring on the Strike Eagle, you are actually limited to fewer MOA of adjustment on the elevation turret than you would have with the PST Gen II. The wider field of view in the Strike Eagle is also enticing. I've been considering the PST Gen II for a considerably long time and have saved up the money for the PST Gen II. So I don't want to just talk myself into the Strike Eagle because it is cheaper. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. With the locking turrets and the wider field of view, why does the PST Gen II still remain considerably more expensive than the Strike Eagle, especially considering the Strike Eagle comes with a throw lever. Once again, thank you.
@VortexOpticsUSA
@VortexOpticsUSA 2 года назад
Hey Seth - appreciate the question! The PST Gen II will give you more internal adjustment (compared to when you set the zero stop on the Strike Eagle) and a noticeable step up in optical quality as well which results in the higher price tag. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either of those options. How far are you planning on shooting out to?

@VortexOpticsUSA
@VortexOpticsUSA 3 года назад
Hey John - the parallax adjustment on the side of your scope is to help with parallax. Parallax is an optical illusion that occurs when you are not perfectly centered behind the riflescope. To check if you are experiencing parallax, simply get behind your riflescope and tilt your head left and right. If you see your reticle move on the target that indicates that you are experience parallax. You would then want to make a slight adjustment to that knob to clear that up.

So my question, is it worth the extra $300.00 to get the Viper PST Gen 2 5-25x50 FFP over the Strike Eagle 5-25x56 FFP? Optical quality is also very important to me.

If you have a scope for long range and zeroed at 100 or 200 for that matter, why would anyone dial down to 50 yards and care about losing adjustment range when setting zero stop? 5 mil past zero stop is plenty for somebody who can’t think.
@BlackDotPatrick

The concern is that one loses dialing up range with this zero stop. Granted this scope has a lot to begin with but you can't use it all if you also use the zero stop. It's more likely an issue the longer distance one is shooting.

It very well could, yes. This all depends on where the reticle is positioned inside the scope when you are zeroed. Almost no one is ever perfectly in the center of the scope’s travel so there are things that could limit it, but in a perfect world, even with the zero stop installed, the Strike Eagle would likely have more available travel than the PST Gen II.

@VortexOpticsUSA
@VortexOpticsUSA 4 года назад
Truthfully not much. From your zero, with the zero stop installed, you get 18 mils or 47 MOA from that point to dial at long range. In an ideal world where you're zeroed in the middle of the scope's travel range, you would run out of scope travel before hitting the limitations of the zero stop. Where it would become a potential limiting factor, though, is if you installed a 20 MOA base, giving yourself a zero in the scope with more potential travel in the scope's overall range. It's highly possible at that point you could be hitting the zero stop's limitation before running out of adjustment in the scope. You'd have to be shooting pretty far with most LR cartridges to need 18 Mils though :)

@@stevendoeblien4281 No - try not to confuse how numbers are listed in terms of "Overall travel" vs "Travel from zero". Overall travel is what you're referring to when a scope has, for example, 31 Mlis of adjustment. If you're zeroed in the middle, you'd have 15.5 mils on either side, realistically giving you 15.5 mils of adjustment for long range shooting. In that case, you wouldn't even run into the limitations of the zero stop at all. The Zero stop limits you to 18 mils (Or 47 MOA) in just the one direction, so if you were zeroed in the middle of the scope with 15.5 Mils of adjustment in the one direction you're giong to dial (Gravity only works in one direction) then your scope will actually run out of adjustment well in advance of when the zero stop would have run out.

@@djwhunting4455 22 scope certainly do get dialed a lot. Running this scope without the zero stop is extremely easy. You must be zeroed with your reticle literally all the way at the absolute extreme of the travel range somehow? If you have 69 MOA available to dial, the scope from top to bottom has 70 MOA, so you've got to have some sort of canted base or something to be getting way up there? If you were zeroed more towards the middle of that scope's range which is far more common, you'd then have 35 MOA to dial (Half of 70). With the Strike Eagle, there's 110 MOA of overall adjustment available. If you're zeroed more towards the middle, that will give you 55 in either direction. The zero stop would limit you to 47 MOA, so you wouldn't get to use the full 55 (In this perfect world scenario where you're zeroed right in the middle of the travel) but 47 MOA is still a lot of adjustment!

Night Force, the top end of US Optics, trijicon, top end Burris, Leupold and there's a few more. I shoot for NF and will tell you to buy NF but not just because they provide my optics and write me checks. NF optics are as good as good gets... Even the SHV models are world class scopes and priced very well for how good they are.

And also how is the tracking in them?
@VortexOpticsUSA
@VortexOpticsUSA 4 года назад
Turrets on the PST have a slightly "Clickier" feel to them, but the Strike Eagles aren't bad at all and are very tactile and audible. As for tracking, that won't be an issue with either of these scopes provided they're set up to spec, and the rifle, ammo and human behind the gun shoot well.

Is a slightly better glass quality worth $300 to you? It’s not worth it for me. However, the Strike Eagle is made in China. It’s worth the extra $300 to not support China and instead, the Philippines.

@Dustysa4
@Dustysa4 4 года назад
It brings it down to 47 MOA, or 18 MRAD. This is down from 110 MOA, or 31 MRAD. So basically using the zero stop negates the standout feature of this scope. Not great at all.
