VORTEX VIPER PST 6-24x EBR FFP mil/mil

I had the 4-16 but it had a fault , was replaced with a 6-24 and I nearly fell over when I looked through it. The glass is lovely and the ret is spot on . Put it on my .17 Hornet and it all works rather well . Looking forward to better weather to stretch its legs and see how good the gun and scope are together . I have a feeling the scope is overkill for the gun . Don't think I need this much mag for this gun , I think I might buy another 4-16 PST for it and maybe put the 6-24 on my .223 . I am surprised how good these scopes are for the money , I have heard talk of people changing there Nightforce scopes for Vortex and I kind of see why . For the money the are amazing for sure , not sure about better than NF though , I am looking forward to taking it to Bisley to see how it dials up and from what I hear and read there will be no problem .

For me I would say a cracking bit of kit for the money .

Could you tell us a little more about the fault on your 4-16? I have one and apart from the smooth operation of the focus ring and the turrets it's honestly no better optically than my Hawke Sidewinder. Not a particularly crisp picture at anything beyond 300 yards. A Nightforce 'scope at the same price point that I looked through recently was far superior..

My mate has swapped out his scopes for Vortex, he has 7 of them and 3 are Razors!
