My Astigmatism is is horrible and for that reason, 90% of my Optics are Prismatic. This is a great prismatic sight, for the money. I returned it due to the Swampfox being better for my eyesight. I still recommend this product. Also, I prefer my reticals green.

It was pointed out to me that I have high-end tastes when it comes to optics. I like a crisp reticle, clear lenses, rugged construction, and long battery life. Those attributes can be hard to find in an optical device that doesn’t break the bank. I believe that I finally found the sight that brings everything to the table yet doesn’t cost a fortune. The mounting is super simple. If you know how to turn a screwdriver, you have all the skills necessary to install this sight on your favorite firearm, so there is no need for a trip to the gunsmith. The screws sit flush, so there is no fear of them sticking out and snagging on anything. A single AAA battery is all that is required to power the unit, and is easy to change out from the front. The buttons on the back of the unit are easy to reach and manipulate. There are no surprises here, the buttons do just what you’d think they should. The mount and battery compartment work together to make this unit sit at just the right height for use on an AR. The adjustment covers moved with just enough friction to make me believe that they aren’t coming off unintentionally. The adjustments themselves where both audible and tactile with their clicks. This is a prism sight which varies a little form the run of the mill red dot optic. This means that there is a fast adjust focus ring on the eyepiece. This allows you to tailor, the optic to your individual eye. This especially important for those of us with astigmatism or other eye problems. Even if most red dot sights look fuzzy to your eye, the adjustment ring will allow you to focus the sight to you as an individual. The only downside to this sight at all is that at full brightness, the battery lasts only 250 hours. While that may seem to be too short a runtime to some, it is important to remember that as a prism sight, the reticle is visible without the unit being turned on, or even with no battery installed. In this regard it can be thought of more as a 1X scope than a red dot. Like a magnified scope however, it will have a “sweet spot” where it will need to be mounted for proper eye-relief.

I do like this scope, and the quality is great… If you come up my driveway, this attached to a 14.5" AR will be greeting you, and for that purpose, it's great. If you want a 1x Prism scope for punching paper at the range, well this reticle is less than ideal. The center dot is too small. and the outer rings are too large, for tack driving.

great optic, clear and brand new out of the box sighted very easy. only issue is when the brightness is turned all the way up it does flare and make a green or red hue. but thats at the max brightness level which i believe is 10. but in the middle of the day you would never need it. i only have it on level 3 and its perfect. sighted in just about out of the box very impressed with vortex

Seems to be well built with very crisp reticle. Feels solid built and durable. Have not sighted it in yet, but i am happy with the overall look and feel of this sight. The review must be 200 characters long before it will let you submit it.

I absolutely love this sight. The reticle is absolutely perfect for my style of shooting. I like the large outer ring and medium middle ring and small 1 moa dot. Its extremelt fast on target and super accurate when needed. The build is perfect and controls are great. I love the scope except it badly needs a ARD device as the retice light is very easily seen by the Tango which is the last thing you want. Tbey make one for another vortex sigjt but doesmt fit this one. I dod fomd one on ebay that fits and i just ordered so ill update when it arrives. Other then that it really is a incredibly awesome sigjt
