After extensively reading and watching reviews, going to multiple stores with LPVOs and figuring out what I really wanted, this was the best deal by far. The optic glass is comparable to the more expensive Viper Gen 2 than the Strike Eagles and far superior. The reticle is my main buying point as well with the segmented circle that’s daylight bright illuminated. The adjustment turrets are a bit oversized but that is a feature of this model. I would highly recommend the Viper Gen1!

The Vortex Viper PST is very well made & it looks great. The only problem I had was using the scope during the daytime. The reticle is very difficult to see, it's not bright enough & the size is very small. I returned it for a Trijicon product.

I ran this scope days and nights illuminated none illuminated. Works well on both ends. Tested it with multiple magnifications I am very happy with it. It didn't strain my eyes at ALL. With both eyes open and with magnified for long range acquisition from eye to eye had no muscle fatigue. The glass is pretty dang clear for the price. Rugged is the truth. Dropped multiple times. Still zeroed in. For the features it gives you and the clarity I back this product up my DD is happy with it. Some might say just a few levels below us optics. In my opinion. I have one so I can say that.

I had done quite a bit of research to find a quality scope for my semi-auto rifle. My first inclination was not the Vortex scope but after reading so many positive reviews regarding the Vortex Viper PST 1x4x24 I decided to give it a try. Boy, am I glad I did! The glass is extremely clear, and is a good indication as to why the scope is a little heavier than comparable scopes. I like the second focal plane reticle as it maintains the same MOA center dot regardless of the power setting. Moving between the power levels is smooth but not sloppy. The reticle itself is simple and easy to use, and doesn't take up as much field of view as some other scopes. The adjustment knobs are solid yet still easy to manipulate. The reticle power settings work very well and I particularly like the "off" settings between each power level. Overall I am very pleased with the Vortex scope and would definitely recommend it to anyone.Read full review

I went with Vortex because of quality and warranty. I'm not thrilled with the reticle on this particular scope. It's very hard to see in lower light conditions, however, when illuminated it is awesome. It's best just to always keep it illuminated when you're shooting it. The magnification dial is harder to turn than I like, but I'm picky. Scope is awesome though. This is me second PST. I have a high power viper on my .308 bolt gun & love it. It's a scope for a lifetime because of the quality & the warranty. That's how I like my gear.
