Thread: FFP hunting scope recommendations

I had a Sig Sauer Tango4 that ticked all of your boxes, except the glass was absoloute shite, the Tango6 may be better.

PREMIER OPTICS 3-15x50 LIGHT TACTICAL (30mm tube) - Clearance - LGA Supplies

Cheers will look into that.

Do you have one? If so what do you think?
I've done some quick research and some folk are complaining the XR reticle is too thin.

I had one and sold it too a mate of mine who still has it, the mildot reticle works very well in these which is what i had,

they are a fantastic scope mate not stupidly heavy and wicked glass! probably the best glass i have looked through in a tactical scope.

Another one to consider is Burris Veracity, they do 3-15x50 and a 4-20x50. Have the 3-15 on a 264, pretty good optics and reticle. Bought mine 2nd hand for about 12 hundie

Another, slightly cheaper, option would be the Vortex Diamondback Tactical FFP. Lacks illumination and a zero stop, but is about $1000 cheaper and 8oz lighter than the PST GenII etc. I haven’t got one yet but potentially looking at putting one on my .270Win hunting rifle.

They were purchased by Tangent Theta. They still make the same scope. I’ve not seen one in the flesh but they’re supposedly the same scope.
I have a 5 - 15 light tac. Really nice glass and the Gen 2 Mildot is a practical recticle.
I sent mine to Premier when I bought it as I wanted a target turret installed. Paul Lange was my contact at Premier and he was awesome to deal with. Premier has a very interesting history. They did a lot of work for Leupold in their formative years.

I've got the March 3-24 x 42 FFP - 2, actually, and they are beyond great. The FM-L reticle works well @3x where it looks like a duplex, and past 8x the floating dot is superb. Clicks are perfect, glass is superb, it all just works.
The only problem is you end up wanting more.
