Tactical Range Scope for the field – Vortex

dsc_0005Do you even know what a “Tactical Range Scope” is?  Well check this article out!!

It was my turn out on perimeter watch.  Lately it has been pretty boring.  Most of the time overwatch is boring.  You have to just rough it sometimes.  So, I take up watch inside of a tree for concealment.  Yes their is a difference between cover and concealment and we can talk about that one later.  With my new Tactical Range Scope I got from Vortex optics!  Man, one thing about Vortex is that every optic you get from them is crystal clear!  I love Vortex!

Anyways, just as the sun started to go down behind me, I thought I saw a flash.  You know a flash from something the sun hit that was metal.  I looked through the Tactical ret_mon_recon-rtscope again in the same area I saw the flash.  There it was, a guy with a gun.  I knew it.  I adjusted the scope to where I could see the whites of his eyes!  LOL…. and used the little Hashmarked ranging off to the side in the scope to quickly find the yards out they were.  The guy was 500 yards out!  Man that was quick.

I immediately took a knee again after radio in their position.  Even though I couldn’t believe how clear it was, I maintained eye contact with them and called in the range as they continued to come closer.  Where would I be without Vortex?

dsc_0012See, Vortex makes a number of different items, but I can tell you by FIELD experience, there is nothing that compares to their scopes.  Check out what they had to say about this Tactical Range Scope:
