Can the red dot be seen is bright sun light ?

[Gunblastdotcom]

That is dependant upon the background.

Thanks for the video.The printed out reticle was good to look at . I think I'm going to put one on my new Yankee Hill AR

[voodoolord]

Hope no ones on the receiving end of your rifle, the safeties off ;)

[Gunblastdotcom]

The safety's between the ears.

[voodoolord]

good answer

[NITEOWL22LR]

what range would you zero this scope for?

[Gunblastdotcom]

I would zero the scope for 100 yards.

jeff

[NITEOWL22LR]

@Gunblastdotcom would you zero it for a 100 yards even for driven boar hunts? also whats the minimum range that it would be bang on centre of the reticle at a 100 yards?

[Gunblastdotcom]

Yes I would. I do not understand the second question.

Jeff

[NITEOWL22LR]

@Gunblastdotcom i mean if its zeroed for 100yards and your shooting a boar at lets say 40 or 50 would you still aim with the center of the crosshair?

[Gunblastdotcom]

Yes. There will be very little difference in the point of impact.

[texaspigman]

how much did the scope cost?

[FloridaRaider]

I'd love to have that set up. very nice.

[Nicho2177]

are you catching brass there or keeping them from hitting you in the face since you shoot left handed? I am a lefty shooter too and was just wondering

[Gunblastdotcom]

Catching brass. I don't have a problem with brass hitting me in the face, and brass flying out doesn't bother me at all. I think a lefty has an advantage with an AR because it's quicker for me to see and clear a jam.

[danthman114]

@Nicho2177 thats why the marine corps requseted a shell deflector...

[650LaMigra]

.50!

[oddcarl1]

Looks just like a german duplex with some hash marks.

[BlazinX]

Dandy. :)

[satchboogyfan]

Nice brass catcher

[Ithroz]

Gunblast is heavy duty!

[avi614614]

Thanks for the review would you say this can take the place of an Eotech, or just maybe fill in for it on a temporary basis?

[Gunblastdotcom]

I would much rather have the VX-R than an Eotech. It is a lot more versatile, but can still fill the role of a dot scope.

Jeff

[mindsmirror]

@Gunblastdotcom That's a good point. It could be left on the low power setting for home defense and then taken up to higher magnification if necessary. I do like this scope a great deal. It seems to be perfect for the setup you're running. Plus, if it had to be pressed quickly into a defensive role, that scope combined with the .50 Beowulf cartridge would likely tip the scales significantly in your favor!

[MisterDrumngun]

"You don't have to cut it on." HAHA, people say that where I am from too. ;)

[mrTheDide]

Nice review, nice tools.. :-). Seems your eye is back on track.... good to see!

[tracycolorado]

[MultiSr16]

AAC Cyclops would go great on there..

[MultiSr16]

thx, great "shiite" as usual

[clewi1091]

Is that a bag on the side to catch your empty shells?

[Gunblastdotcom]

It's a 3Bucc Brass Catcher, all my ARs are set up for them. There is a review (no video) in our ARCHIVE section.

[redmule02]

@Gunblastdotcom great review jeff

[13098519]

Does the term "Pig Plex" help you shoot more accurately or did they just want you to have something to read while you are looking through the scope?

[ndcouey70]

Really sweet rig Jeff. Be interested in the durability of the scope mounted on that rig. I haven't had a lot of luck with Leupys on hard kickers.

[stewplaid]

Looking at the prices of the VX-R series, they seem very affordable. I've been looking for a decent scope for my AR (that I can afford) for coyote purposes, and the 3-9 version of this looks pretty darn good for the money.

[rogermcgee1]

Man, that rifle's got alot of recoil. What caliber is it?

[Gunblastdotcom]

50 Beowulf - wonderful cartridge from Alexander Arms.

[rogermcgee1]

@Gunblastdotcom Yes sir. I'm no expert but looking at the recoil from that rifle, I'm sure it has some good hawg/bear knockdown power even if they're charg'in at ya full speed cause they're pissed off.

[Gunblastdotcom]

It is my favorite hog / bear rifle. I've never had to shoot anything twice with it.

[rogermcgee1]

Very good. Interesting.

[bluetunder40]

Awsome want one ,Nice scope

[Ablethe7]

Wow Real nice and good for them pesky wild hogs

[URBANAMERICANTAC]

good scope. thanks for sharing.

[vashguud]

Nifty scope.
