An awesome reticle.
It's a really great scope for the price. You do lose some clarity at full power; however I will say, that's only at 30-60 yards on small targets. I put this on a Ruger 10-22. It's my squirrel gun.

Great optic currently on my 6. 5
It is a good optic. I enjoy it and it works for me. I just keep leaving. The batteries on low optic keeps dying.

Solid performing LPVO
I bought the 1-8 version after having good succuss with the the 1-6 version wanting just a little more zoom. Overall this is a good choice for an LPVO. I would buy one again. the one I have is sitting on a 350 legend and has held zero for a few hundred rounds using a vortex cantilevar mount.

Great budget option
Very clear glass up to 6x, tends to be slightly soft towards the 8x end - but honestly cannot be picky for this price point
Audible and tactile clicks, although there are some reviews claiming a less than adequate feel - but not the case for the scope I got

AMAZING SCOPE ALL AROUND
i used this on a 20" and 22" 308win for distance shooting up to 1000 yards with no problem. the "Christmas tree" style reticle makes hold overs easy while the clarity made farther shots a breeze. I'm truly astonished at the features and quality for the price that vortex offers this at. I was mostly interested in the locking turrets and reticle on this scope but i got illumination, sun shade, and throw lever on top. I recommend this scope to a lot of people at work who are looking for something with more magnification that your everyday 3x9.

Excellent performace, excellent value
Vortex is generally just a solid value for your dollar, this scope is certainly another example.

Great optic at reasonable price
I have 2 of these, one on a PRS rifle, and one on a hunting/ELR rifle. Both have held up perfectly. The tracking has been exact, clarity is amazing for the price, and it has a great reticle (EBR-7C MRAD). It would be a great optic for anyone in the NRL22, NRL Hunter, or PRS.

Fantastic Budget Option
This optic is robust and feature packed! The reticle is well designed and easy to use. The turrets' zero can be adjusted with anything remotely flathead shaped. The glass quality is leagues better than I expected, of course it isn't Leupold clear, but for half the price, you are getting 90% the capability. Not to mention the warranty should you somehow break it.
Quick points:
I had near perfect clarity at 1000m
The turrets track reliably
I have only shot this out to 800 but I feel very confident in pushing it further.

For the money/ warranty I
For the money/ warranty I don't think you can get a better lpvo. I have around 5k rounds through this optic on a bcm mk2 14. 5. For the money you cannot get a better lpvo. Maybe spend the extra 75 bucks and grab the FFP if you have some spare cash in your pocket. No complaints here.

Does the job, nothing fancy
It does what it needs to do. one complaint that i have is the reticle illumination dial doesn't match the actual intensity level. for instance off is actually 9. obvious misstep by QC. everything else functions tho.

Vortex Strike Eagle
I have had a few months to really dig into this optic and use it out at the range, and boy am I impressed. I am really impressed with the lens quality and how smooth the zoom dial is. The different illumination levels are especially nice! I cant wait to test this optic out in the snow and other weather conditions. I will highly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice LPVO for their rifle! I paired these with Vortex's riser mounts and can not complain!

Strike Eagle 5x25
Bought this scope about 3 years ago for my 6. 5 Creedmoore. Great scope for the price and zero issues whatsoever. Recently went hunting from a boat and got ejected into 10ft of water with my gun, with the strike eagle scope, as well as my Vortex binos and both survived water intrusion and function after being in 10 ft of water! Highly recommend!
