TheVortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24 is a versatile hunting and sporting scope with an illuminated AR-BDC3 target reticle in the background and a quick zoom adjustment lever.
The second generation of the Vortex Strike Eeagle spotting scopes features several significant design changes that allow for faster target entry, short and long range shooting (up to 595m), and instant magnification changes after each shot.
Recoil- and weather-resistant design
The one-piece barrel is made from a single piece of 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, thus guaranteeing resistance to recoil, corrosion and mechanical damage.
The anodized barrel has a highly durable anti-reflective finish to prevent scratching and surface abrasion.
Precision sealing and filling the optics with dry nitrogen, completely eliminates the problem of internal lens evaporation (dew) and provides IPX7-rated protection, as a result, the scope is resistant to rain, snow and immersion in water.
The30mm diameter tube provides a wide range of vertical and horizontal adjustment (140 MOA) allowing shooting at distances up to 595m.
Ahard and durable ArmorTek coating has been applied to the external lenses to protect them from scratches, dirt, moisture and oils.
Such a construction means that the scope can be safely used in all weather conditions, without fear of damaging the optics.
A practical zoom lever is mounted on the eyepiece, which allows you to quickly change the magnification between shots.
Bright and sharp image
The scope uses XD glass lenses with a low dispersion coefficient, which contributes to excellent resolution and contrast. Another advantage of the glass used is its relatively low density, which makes the optics lighter.
A parameter that distinguishes Strike Eagle from the market competition is high light transmission, affecting image brightness even in unfavorable lighting conditions.
Multi-layer anti-reflective coatings were applied to all air-to-glass surfaces. As a result, the image is bright, sharp from edge to edge, has high resolution, reproduces colors faithfully and even at full 6× magnification the target is perfectly visible.
Illuminated target reticle in the background
TheVortex Strike Eagle 1-8 × 24 spotting scope uses an illuminated AR-BDC3 aiming reticle in the background. The crosshairs in the background do not change their size with changes in magnification, so the reticle does not obscure the target at higher magnification.
The AR-BDC3 reticle takes into account the ballistics of .223 Rem caliber ammunition.
Angle values for applying corrections are accurate at the highest magnification. The illuminated crosshair at single magnification acts as a collimator aiming dot, allowing dynamic shooting at short range.
Theaiming dot has an 11-position illumination adjustment. The large adjustment range allows comfortable operation regardless of lighting conditions.
To ensure maximum resistance and reliability of the optical system, the aiming reticle has been laser etched and protected with two layers of glass.
The large exit pupil distance means (89 mm) that the shooter's eyesight remains relaxed, as entering the target does not have to adapt to the field of view.
It also allows those using corrective lenses to use the scope comfortably and protects against the recoil of large caliber weapons.
Large adjustment range
To adjust the reticle, there are covered, low-profile turrets, with moleskin covers that allow you to change the settings even when wearing gloves. A click of the turret moves the reticle by 1/2 MOA (14.55 mm/ 100 m). Full reticle adjustment range is 140 MOA vertically and horizontally.
TheVortex Strike Eagle 1-8 × 24 is a versatile and reliable cross-country scope that is perfect for group hunting and 3Gun dynamic shooting optics.
