Vortex Optics
Overview
The Vortex Viper PST Gen II 1-6x24 SFP VMR-2 MOA Riflescope is a low power variable optic (LPVO) designed for versatility in various shooting scenarios. With a magnification range of 1X to 6X, it allows for quick target acquisition at close ranges and precise shots at longer distances, while the second focal plane reticle maintains its size regardless of magnification, making it easier to use in dynamic situations. The illuminated red MOA reticle enhances visibility in low-light conditions, and with 160 MOA of total elevation and windage adjustment, you can fine-tune your aim to suit your specific shooting environment. This scope is commonly found in builds utilizing a mid-length gas system chambered in 5.56 NATO, providing a balance of performance and flexibility for the builder.
