Anybody have experience with the vortex strike eagle 3x18x44 FFP?

Before I buy this Strike Eagle 3x18x44 thought I'd ask if any of y'all have experience with it. How do you like it?

What is your intended use for the scope? If it is for a hunting rifle that would be a hard pass for me. Vortex dont handle impacts very well.

Dedicated range gun is a different story.

In that price range a Trijicon Credo HX or some type of Arken would be my choice.

I plan on using it as a scope for a hunting rifle. I stick with vortex generally though because I get a discount through a dealer.

Take a look at the Viper HD in 3x15 as well.

About 5-6 ounces lighter in the same price range.

That scope is a good entry point for target setups (depending on your eyes I have seen them used successfully out to +- 1000yds). We sell a lot of them and I haven't gotten one returned in 5 years. Watch for sales and you can catch a good deal. With the tube size, weight and FFP it would NOT be my choice for a hunting scope. I have a couple of Strike Eagle LPVOs on ARs and they punch well above their weight.

Second this choice....just saw the hunting purpose.
