Optic Clarity
Customers have generally positive opinions about the optic clarity of the Vortex Optics Sonora 4-12x44 Second Focal Plane Riflescope - Dead-Hold BDC Reticle, with some mentioning that it is clearer than other scopes in its price range. However, a few customers noted that they experienced glare at dusk and that the clarity was not as good as more expensive scopes beyond 200 yards.
Highlights
Quality
Quality scope,installed on my rifle bore sighted for 100yds.
High quality scope and very pleased with it so far
This senora zeroed easily and has held the zero through my first 100 rounds.
However, i was only able to enjoy this scope for a few days, and had shot only a hundred or so pellets before it would no longer hold zero.
Price
I purchased this scope mainly for the price.
This budget vortex scope is a great deal.
For the money you cannot go wrong,ordered one for our son, just order another one for my husband.
All and all not a bad product for the money.
Shipping
Fast shipping and unlimited warranty from vortex.
Competitiveness
Comparison to one of my $1,000 dollar optics is impressive.
The scopes are clear, bright, and much better than the price might suggest.
But i do not feel the glass is as good as quality as you get with a nikon or a burris which are both within the same price range.
However at 200+ yards you can really tell the difference between this and a diamondback or even crossfire.
