Vortex Strike Eagle rifle scopes description

Vortex Strike Eagle rifle scopes are the most affordable tactical rifle scopes from Vortex. For such a low price, the user gets very feature-rich optics that is durable for shooting big caliber rifles from short to long range.

The reticle in all Strike Eagle rifle scopes is set in the second focal plane, so the size of the reticle doesn't change when changing the magnification. With such a reticle precise shoots at long distances are easily possible, because the reticle doesn't cover a lot of the target at the biggest magnifications. All Vortex Strike Eagle rifle scopes have an illuminated reticle with 10 intensity settings.

The main tube is made from a single-piece aluminum to withstand harsh treatment, and the entire housing is waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen to prevent internal fogging at low temperatures. The housing is also hard-anodized for a more scratch-resistant surface. The diameter where mounting rings have to be installed is 30 millimeters thick, so many mounting solutions are available for any kind of weapons platform.

All lenses are fully multi-coated for a brighter, sharper and contrast-rich picture. The reticle is glass-etched for a crisp view at all magnifications. The turrets on the wide-angle rifle scopes are low-profile for adding some additional accessories, and are capped for protection against accidental movement. The parallax is fixed at 100 yards. On the bigger magnification rifle scopes, the turrets are exposed tactical for quick elevation and windage adjustments, and both rifle scopes feature also and adjustable parallax turret on the opposite side of the windage turret. The parallax is adjustable from 20 yards / 18 meters to infinity. The clicks are in ¼ MOA, and on one given magnification, the clicks and the reticle are matched for calculating the distance to the target and making elevation and windage adjustments without making the clicks.

The Vortex Strike Eagle rifle scopes are made in China and are covered with the Vortex Unconditional Lifetime Warranty.

General properties of Tactical Rifle scopes

Tactical rifle scopes are meant for tactical situations where the importance of the first shot hitting the target is much higher than consistent pinpoint accuracy. Tactical - scope also offers the possibility of range estimation or shifting of the aim point in the reticle to compensate for bullet drop or wind drift.

The most common features of tactical scope are:

Tactical (uncapped) turrets
Tactical reticles (Mil-Dot, etc.)
Tube mounting (30mm, 34mm, 35mm, 36,mm or 40mm)
Minimal magnification from 1x to 6x
Maximal magnification from 12x to 30x
Bigger click values (usually 1cm/100m)
FFP reticle configuration is frequent

A special case of Tactical - scope is also MIL/MIL scope, which could be described also as fully tactical - scope.

What makes a scope tactical?

The tactical scope is a scope that features tactical (exposed) turrets, which is the one basic criterion. But there are more.

The optics is tactical if it meets the following requirements:

a magnification between 5x to 25x,
uncapped turrets on the riflescope,
an illuminated reticle,
one-centimeter clicks,
riflescope with the reticle in the first focal plane, and
on more expensive models, a zero stop.

What is the difference between a tactical scope and a hunting scope?

Hunting riflescope is, of course, meant to be used for hunting, whereas a tactical scope is intended to be used in all tactical situations. A hunting scope features a lower magnification range, so hunters can also use a scope in poor light conditions. A tactical scope, however, features a magnification that is on the upper side of the medium range.

Reticle position and turrets on tactical- rifle scope and hunting scope

Hunting scope is also the only type of scope that can be mounted with rails. The reticle is in the second focal plane, which is not the case with tactical scope, as they have a first focal plane reticle.

The turrets on hunting scope are capped low-profile hunting turrets, whereas tactical scope features uncapped turrets.

What is the difference between a tactical - scope and a target scope?

As mentioned, the purpose of the tactical scope is to be used in all tactical situations. Target scope, on the other hand, is meant for precision shooting. Compared to tactical scopes’ 5x to 25x magnification, target ones have an extremely high one, which is up to 55x.

Reticle position in Tactical scope and Target scope

The tactical scope features a first focal plane reticle, and target scope a second focal plane reticle. What is more, with a target scope, if the user has enough knowledge and experience, they can also use it for hunting.

The characteristics of tactical riflescope (the main one being the FFP reticle), make them suitable only for tactical shooting purposes.
