Features 6

  • The updated Strike Eagle 1-8x24 is defined by speed and versatility. A true 1x on the low end adapts to a wide range of scenarios, letting users engage from close to extended ranges
  • The magnification ring has been updated and now includes a thread-in throw lever, and the magnification indicators can now be seen without coming off the scope.
  • The new illuminated BDC3 reticle focuses the user's eye faster and holdovers allow for immediate use out to 650 yards for targets of known distance.
  • The fast focus dial on the eyepiece allows for quick and easy reticle focusing. Anti-reflective coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces provide increased light transmission for greater clarity and low-light performance.

Description

Speed and versatility—that’s what 1x variable optics offer shooters who need to engage targets from point-blank out to 600 yards, and that’s exactly what you get with the redesigned Strike Eagle. With the BDC3 reticle and a thread-in throw lever, you’ll be on target even faster. Thread in the included throw lever as shown until the throw lever is secured. Do not over torque the throw lever. The magnification adjustment is used to change the riflescope’s magnification level, or "power,” adjusting from low to high magnification depending on the shooter’s preference. To activate/adjust the illumination, rotate the adjustment dial in either direction. The illumination dial allows for 11 levels of illumination intensity. Your riflescope uses a fast focus eyepiece designed to quickly and easily adjust the focus on the riflescope’s reticle. 1. Look through the riflescope at a blank white wall or at the sky. 2. Turn focus knob fully outward (counterclockwise). 3. Slowly turn the eyepiece focus knob inward until the reticle image is as crisp as possible. Your riflescope features adjustable elevation and windage turret dials with audible and tactile clicks. Each click moves the point of impact 1/2 MOA. 1. Remove the turret caps. 2. Following the directional arrows, turn the dials in the direction you wish the bullet’s point of impact to go. 3. When finished adjusting, replace the turret caps. Strike Eagles feature Elevation and Windage Turrets that allow you to re-index the zero indicator after sight-in without disturbing your zero setting. 1. After completing the final sight-in, remove the turret cap(s). 2. Without rotating the turret, twist the turret dial to reposition it with the “0” mark aligned with “Up” on the scope housing. 3. Replace the turret cap(s).

Excellent quality scope for the money
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
The scope was received in brand new condition, in original factory packaging. It is exactly what I ordered. It comes with a life-time warranty. This is the perfect scope for my intended use. I would definitely recommend this item to anyone. You can buy more expensive scopes but they won't do the job any better. Do yourself a favor, if you're looking for this size scope give the Vortex Optics Strike Eagle 1-8X24 a try. ... show more

Well built great glass great knobs easy to zero low caps.
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
Ok so I wanted the 1x6 but it was sold out. So I'm having to spend an extra 100 dollars. Dobi regret it would I go back and buy the 1x6 instead? No reason I out this on 8x and put my target all the way to the end of the indoor range. So I have a 3x9x40 and if it was slightly more powerful I'd hit the target 30 out of 30. So when I put on this which is 1xless power I thought well it's Vortex maybe it will be ok more then ok I hit the black on target 30 of 30. Most guys out there do say 1x6 is better better eyebox. I tested using my off eye hit 20 of 20 of reloads! it's a really lighter then tbe 1x6 also. It also has a regrow lever. OP mod us cool with tbe 1x6 but they are sold out so do I feel left out it ripped off. Not at all I love this optic it is clean crisp all the way up to 8x and I seen videos showing how after 6 its garbage power blurry. Maybe it is but you know what I'll take that then limited to 6. So I can stop at 6 and gave amazing quality but I do go to 7x and you know what I dont see anything bad about those 2 extra powers I hit my targets very well. Also I heard about Primary Arms being better. Well possible the design of the horseshoe vs the Chevron and the 3g box is better but I can see thjs out lines the round nksck target better and it's not too much going on at all. Infact lower it to a 4 and it's just a crimson outline. VORTEX is known great valued optics. Period Orimary Arms is t on that list if top 10 purchased reliable optics. I think most law enforcement and military persons would pick it over Primary Arms. Both made in China but it's ran like an American Company great customer service wrote me a check and took back a bad product. My life depends on it I'm choosing the Vortex. On my Spr I have 2 Vortex but the struke Eagle is there because most things I shoot are under 100 yards. The other is a Diamondback Tactical 6x24 and it is amazing for like 200 yard shots I know that you can take 1000 yard shots with it. But I'm running 62 grain 556 so I'm taking no more then 100yards 77 grain I'd attempt a longer shot and obviously you would need a stronger scope but it's true 1 power that does not grow. it's perfect and my sig xdr predator is on my sbr. And I wish that thjs strike Eagle was green like that is. If it was green like it br better then pretty much any short distance scope. Also I understand 400 is alot and most would choose tbe 1x6 but if you are used to 3x9 then go with this because it's pretty much the same ... show more

These are the standard for LPVOs
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
Theses are really nice optics. The glass is clear and the 1x allows you to operate with both eyes open. The illuminated reticle is nice for low light situations but bright nough to be seen in daylight. Eye relief is good but gets finicky at higher power which is always the case with LPVO's. I highly recommend this optic. ... show more

A good scope
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
I put it on my henry x 45-70 medium rings, fits good, looks good i haven't got to shoot it yet because of the fire danger since the gun is only good for 150-200 yards i don't need a long range scope should be a perfect fit

Best 1-8 you'll find for the money.
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
The only complaint is the dim reticle (it does do well under low light however). I mean the only complaint. This scope is well built. Clear glass, rugged construction. Its held zero and adjusted accurately at four corners and back to zero. One thing I have learned trying to buy budget scopes of other brands....yeah don't. You end up wasting more money then you would have needed to. This is on an older HM Defense Comander 5.56. If you research that weapon you will know it's a tank. I also run a 45 degree mounted Vortex red dot on it (for hard left leans around courners and other CQB situations). This is my end of days zombie apocalypse work horse. The Two brands that are my go to wallet friendly best bang for the buck would be Vortex and Holosun. One unfortunate thing about both is their made in China, but damn...the rest of the world needs to be more competitive. China is kicking our butt and for good reason. Holosun and Vortex are just two small examples. Highly recommend the Vortex Strike Eagle. ... show more

Decent scope for the money
Size: 1-8x24 Style: BDC3
I bought this scope because of the reticle. I love the reticle, but the distance markers built into the reticle are not accurate. In my case, to hit a target at 300 yards, I had to hold on the mark of 350 to make hits. If you can get familiar with the scope and use Kentucky windage techniques, and you'll be fine. The eye relief could be a little better, too, but all in all, for the money, it was easy to install and okay to use... again, so long as you shoot some with it and learn what the scope will do for you. Know your rifle, know your scope, and know your ammo round... and you'll be fine. Good scope for the money. Light weight is handy, too. I put mine on my Colt AR-15 and it will be one of my hunting rifles this season. ... show more
