sasquatch981 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Can Somebody post some pictures with the reticule lit? From the photos I have seen the dot appears to be so small as to be pointless. I realize you don't want to have a 4MOA dot, but it would be nice to have one big enough to see. Maybe I have been spoiled with the Trijicon Accupoint Triangle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv Z Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Optics planet is notorius for not letting you know if it's in stock or not. If you click on there availability icon (that's new), it says call or email to discuss it. They don't have any right now. The season is almost over up here, so I may wait untill they become widely available. I really want one though!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoShooter Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 How is the eye box compared of that of the Razor 1-4 at 1x, 4x, and how does it look at 6x? You did not like the photo? I thought that was good for 1000 words. Wow is the most common term that shooters use to describe the big screen TV at the back of the scope. Not a single person that looked at my scope at Rockcastle thought that the RED Dot could be should be any brighter. The Red dot is small enough that I could leave it on to shoot the steel targets through the trees on stage #4 at the ProAm. In fact I was able to hit some targets faster than the RO could be "Herd" calling hit. ?Couldn't find the Razor at Rockcastle ? ... Did you see the guy with the bight Green and white Vortex shirt passing a scope around ? Not more than two Jaimie's allowed at one event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RufDog Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 The Reticle that Jerry designed for this 1-6 is fast like Jerry and even a Zombie could learn how to use it in seconds. Lite it up and its going to burn every thing under 100 yards = Turn off the lite for longer shots and the detail on the targets is going to spoil every one. I'm a Zombie AND I like lasers; do you think this scope is right for me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Zombie AND I like lasers; do you think this scope is right for me? I have been married twice = the first one taught me a lot, most of it I have hopes of forgetting. Is it rite for you? This scope is like the Hottest woman you have ever met , And she thinks your smart and handsome. How could that not be "Right for You" even if you never shot out to 500 yards and over the field of view and high definiton of the targets make it great. I have very little exsperiance with a Laser sight, But I did shoot open handgun for 18+ years 1/2 of it with a Target Focus like you would shoot a Lazor. I think this scope with the red dot on has advantages over a Lazor becuse you can set the red dot up over the Head area on a 4 yard target and still know it will hit below the dot on the center of the A in the head.

rkgsmith Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 If your looking for a Vortex call Scott at Liberty Optics (on the net) he's a good guy and service is top shelf. Don't know if in stock or not, but he's a vortex dealer and prices are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveI Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Subjective question; do you see the reticle for the Razor II getting "better?" Or if anybody has heard any feelers about what they MIGHT offer for reticles. On one hand I guess I just like knowing what my options are before I buy. On the other, this seems pretty good in that it's simple, uncluttered, and has all I think I'd use. I'm curious how people think it compares to the Razor EBR-556 reticle. I suppose I can just wait and find out what else they throw out there, just thought I'd ask the peanut gallery. -Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I Do Like ) the EBR reticle in the 1-4 Razor very much. But it 'in my opinion' would be too big and clumsy for the 1-6. When Vortex has something new with the Reticle, I doubt very much it would be something that is "Throw out there" = it will be good. The Reticle as is would have worked for 99.5% of the match shots I did this last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
