MTC Optics viper 4x16x50

[Gary C]

Ok thanks ... how would you say the optics compare with a Bushnell Legend, as this is my favourite scope right now....

Not for me to say mate. Come to the Midland and take a look

Means an F'ing idiot Costas. Couple of the best 'uns on here are Romani and I'm fed up with my mates getting ripped by half wits

just bought one of these
fitted it to my s10 with the mounts supplied fits really well but the big sidewheel fouls the mag if i fit the scope where i would lke it.
the optics are very good, but fussy about having your eye in the right place (i consider this a good thing)
turrets great! i like the way they lock once set.
reticule very good, i can get it to be, and stay sharp at any range.
all the goodies and tools you need to fit it.and a warranty with people who actually give a s#it
overall very pleased.

What's the difference between the Viper 4-16x50 and the Mamba 4-16x50?

I'm looking for something with side-wheel parallax and low and very simple turrets that will work well with a Cobra Merlin NV monocular.



Gary and Sammie - These are sounding seriously impressive!

The former has tactical turrents, the latter low profile turrets. The Mamba also has a removable IR switch in the IR option.

So the Mamba has side parallax in the 4-16x50 model?

Yup -- the optics are the same as the Viper. When I had a look through the Mamba it looked very clear indeed. The reticle too is excellent.
