Looking at a new scope

[Baroid]

I have a 12.5 pistol mainly hunting everything here in Texas plus a little med range target shooting. Im looking at the Leupold VX-R Hog 1.25-4x20mm Riflescope, FireDot Pig Plex Illum. Reticle and the Primary Arms SLx6 1-6x24mm SFP Rifle Scope Gen III - Illuminated ACSS-PREDATOR. Anyone have any experience with either? I've never had a Primary Arms but I've had a couple Leupolds and I know and love the clarity of the glass. Theres no place near to me that has a Primary Arms scope.

Primary Arms has REAL fast shipping but I doubt they will be as clear as a Leupold. I had a Leupold AR with the Firedot but wasn't enough for my older eyes. Very good scope.

I have a Primary Arms 4x16 on my 18in Grendel. Great scope for $159.00. Is it a Leopold or Burris? No but I like it and it does a good job.

I have a leupold vxr hog with the pig pled reticle. I really like it for hunting but not so much for target shooting.

You should really look thru a scope vs looking at it

I have a 1-6x24 Vortex Razor on my 300 BO that I use for hog hunting.It also works well out to 400 yrds.But,it may be out of your price range.My buddy has a Vortex strikeeagle 1-6 illuminated scope he uses for hog hunting.Works great for him,and I see him use it out on the 200 yrd range.It is in the $300 price range and will do what you want.The strike Eagle has decent glass and tracks well.
I also have a budget hog hunting 300 BO rig I keep under the back seat of my truck.It has a 300blk Nikon 2-7x32 scope on it.I have taken many hogs with it.And it is inexpensive enough for me to not worry about getting mud on it.

I don't have one of these but I would if it was this price when I bought my vortex viper pst Gen 2...

good post!

[mdram]

dont overlook the swampfox if you are in the market for an lvpo. the glass on my surprised me for the price point
theres a review on here by another member

To me, I think folks tend to overpower the glass, at the expense of weight and field of view. I quite like the primary Arms 2.5x for a 25-200 yard primary field usage rig.

The Leupold scopes with the Firedot reticle are some of my favorite values in the sub $500 range. You might want to consider the Steiner P4Xi as well, since it has clearer glass than the Leupold VXRs.
