Compared to the amber or gray lens of my SI Ballistic M frame, the red dot pops out more on the daily prism lenses. Having it polarized makes a whole lot of difference too.

rooster mcbee Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I shoot Steel Challenge almost exclusively these days. Open guns, white targets against earth/dirt backgrounds. Any recommendations for this situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll enhance the target and red set against the dirt background. Oakley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like having thin frames under my ear pro Good Question. I'm on the fence about this set which includes the new 3.0 frame which is supposed to have thinner temples for better hearing protection and comfort. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1093486133759/oakley-si-ballistic-m-frame-30-shooting-glasses Edited March 2, 2019 by jrdoran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snipaz2420 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Thank you guys! Right now I'm running ESS Crossbow Suppressors but those Prizm lenses look nice. Jrdoran those are super similar to what I have now so I think that would be the way I would go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George16 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I have those Ballistic M Frame glasses with the TR22 and TR45 lenses. It also comes with a set of clear lens. I’ve had it for a while now and all I do is go to Oakley’s website and buy the replacement lens if I need new ones. The Ballistic M frames comes with the older 2.0 and the newer 3.0 models. The 3.0 has a slightly different mounting point but the lens are interchangeable with the 2.0. If if you are military, Leo, or first responder, you can go and register at Oakley’si.com. The prices are way lower compared to the civilian population. That $250 Ballistic M frame is about $165 plus $8 from Oakley’si.com. You just need to send them a photocopy or picture of your credentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageJoeShooting Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Theres probably no truth or science to this but with burnt orange i swear i can see the holes in the target better sometimes with lighter colored lenses i swear the light on the target makes things just blur together and i have no real idea where the shot went Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooster mcbee Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I went to Academy yesterday and bought the Oakley M frame Ballistic SI with the Prism T22 lens. I need an RX insert, but so far they look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GringoBandito Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Funny timing on this thread. I bought the prizm 22's and found they let too much light through on bright days. I ended up doing some research and found the deep blue prizm lens actually filters out the most light. The FO is hard to miss with these lenses and they are super clear. Highly recommended.

Sparten8654 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Oakley Prizm TR22 and TR45 lately I have been using Prizm Trail 36% Base Tint it was awesome for trail running and shooting in shadows or bright light. I find it better when shooting matches where foliage is involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abb1 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) I use a yellow lens in low light conditions (indoor or cloudy), which I find works great for the red dot. Edited March 4, 2019 by abb1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy kemlo Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I got a pair of Rudy tralyx xl glasses. They came with clear to black, clear to laser red, and clear lenses. I absolutely love them until I put my hat on. The hat blocks the sunlight which means they do not get more than 20 to 30% of the darkness they would with your half off. They offer no other impact lenses for this frame. The only other color they offer is multicast orange (not impact rated)which to me looks a little weird. So not much options for that frame. You would think for as much money as they sell these for they would offer a few colors that work under a hat. Included a picture of what the glasses look like in full sun under a hat and without a hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboy69 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Oakley TR45, Developed for military and 3 gun shooting. Also the Oakley Prizm trail works well for shooting. Prizm road is also decent for shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Oakleys scratch incredibly easily. Just looking at them wrong will make them scratch, haha. Rudy's are scratch resistant. In the end, I have succumbed to the fact that they are disposable.

Jumprun13k Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I really like the photochromatic reds. Except when the sun is too much in my eyes and then I switch to a regular red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeattleDude Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I run Oakley prism TR45 lens in Tombstone Reap variety pretty much all the time unless its dark or raining then I switch to Clear. I rarely use TR22 but they are good for very bright days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hardly ever run the TR22 unless shooting on a very sunny day with berms without grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
