    I really like this thing. It is a no-fat, simple HPVO that does what it offers very well. For the standard price these are good to very good. For anything less than that, they are Excellent!

    i went the other way. i put a used acog on a stock 10/22 compact. it’s light and i like looking through it and being a 22 i can look through it a lot. the reti al works too. for standard velocity i multiply distance by three and high velocity by two.

    I have a Gen 1 HST 6-24x (not sure if they made a Gen 2). I've had it for about 6-8 years on the Savage 308 bolt action. I kinda want to upgrade it to a FFP optic so I am looking forward to your Vortex family review.

    Great video!! I am a pistol guy, just got into rifle shooting. Picked up a Savage axis 2 Precision in 6.5creedmoor.It has a vortex crossfire on it and im able to group about .5” at 100yards.
    Im looking to start going longer range. Recently at 200meter, groups 1.25” or better.
    Now, looking to go further and get a better optic.
    Originally looking at the Diamondback tactical, the The strike Eagle. Also the arken was tempting but feel its not the way to go.
    This Venom seems to be a good middle ground.
    What do you think? Also what scope rings do you recommend?
    Thanks!

    To put a little context to glass commentary this is mostly a design difference. Vortex's optical design is way ahead of most of the rest of the industry. I think they are doing a better job selecting glass (it's almost certainly all CDGM chinesium glass which is perfectly adequate for all commercial applications under 2inch diameter) but they are definitely doing a more consistent job controlling chromatic aberration than most of their competitors during the design process.
    I would also add that I prefer the diamondback reticle but the image quality is no comparison. This optic is vastly superior.

    • @CDOES
      @CDOES  Před rokem +2

      Of all you said I have no doubt. Add ontop of that Vortex backing their products like no other and it becomes a very easy purchase.

    Actually it's 22 mils of elevation. on all of them 18 if you're windage is set past three or the Rev stop is on . I have one but I've seen scopes with 30 mil tubes that have close to the same f.o.v , moa or mrad adjustments as well exit pupil..like the Vortex Diamondback and Nikon ( defunct ) Black X 1000, Only thing the Venom seems to significantly have over them is weight for bench shooting and glass quality..

    Sounds like you prefer the glass on the Venom over the Helos. Is it by much? Which one lets through more light of them during dusk/dawn?
    Looks to me like the Helos is above the Venom in everything else (turrets, illumination, weight).

    • @CDOES
      @CDOES  Před rokem

      It isn't by much, but it's enough to make me choose the venom over the helps for my purposes on my rimfire. If I needed lume then it would be a closer choice between the strikeeagle and helos

    Useless for me. No horizonal elevation marks to tell how many revolutions you have made. Cheap way to make scopes.

    • @stumpyhigginbottom3466
      @stumpyhigginbottom3466 Před rokem

      Easy fix for that. Go one rev up from bottom and mark with a paint pen. If you can't see a mark, you're at bottom; if you can, you're at +1, and if you have space between the turret and the mark, you're at +2. Venom doesn't have enough elevation to get to +3. Not worth complaining about when the fix is so easy.

      @@stumpyhigginbottom3466 no problem. All of my scopes have the revolution counter marks - Riton, Athlon, Vortex and others. Bushnell makes a really nice scope, Engage, that has the same problem. OTOH I have an Athlon Midas 4.5-27 x 50 that has the hash marks, but does not need them as I can go from a 50 yd zero to 200 yds in one revolution with a .22LR. My favorite scope is the Riton X1 6-24x50. $200ish. The glass is better than my $$$ Midas.
