MTC Viper Connect

[Hurricane]

Second time in a rifle bag it fell off, it clips in very weakly, so why have a cap on the front when the rear lens has none?

Touch wood mine has been fine so far

Because you can't open a lens cap when you have a scope enhancer on..

Drop us a line and we'll replace the objective cover, no biggie and we've had no other problems with them

No problem with not having the lens cap on for me, after I found it on the floor I clipped it on and off a couple of times to see how it fitted then put it in my misc. box.

I have used the Connect in a couple of HFT competitions and haven't had a problem with the objective lens cap. Personally I don't get on with the rubber 'concertina' enhancer, but have used a Bushwacker flip-up eyepiece cover to keep the rain off.

Now I could not get on with the Viper at all ( my dodgy eyes ) but I have tried the connect a couple of times and really like it , very clear , compact with a great ret too . When finances allow I will certainly be getting one .

Charles how are you finding the scope with / without glasses mate

No worse with glasses than any other scope I've used, but nowadays I only shoot wearing a contact lens, much better than glasses.
Though reading glasses do have their uses.

Do you find that you lose the ret in the darker wooded areas when a dark target is used? Its a b*tch to range find with it. Now if the ret was a fully illuminated one it would be a good hft scope as well as a good hunting scope

IMHO the illuminated centre cross is all you need.

What Mog said.

I now find fully illuminated rets distracting, especially as in HFT you can't adjust them. And the illuminated centre cross is excellent for hunting. IMHO, of course.
