Sonicking 3-9×40 Rifle Scope: Amazing for the Price

Sonicking 3-9x40 Rifle Scope — Sonicking 3-9×40 Rifle Scope

Note: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

Sonicking (which you should think of as “Sonic King”, not “sonick-ing”) offers a rifle scope that will barely put a crease in your wallet. You can easily find it for less than $50. At that price point, it’s certainly worth a first as well as a second look.

Other reviewers have found many positive points to make about it, so I’ll give you the details here along with some of their thoughts. I think this will be enough to convince you to at least give it a chance, again, especially considering the low cost. Continue reading “Sonicking 3-9×40 Rifle Scope: Amazing for the Price”

CVLIFE makes more than a dozen different styles of rifle scopes. You can find many of them (as of this writing) here on Amazon. The question is whether or not CVLIFE rifle scopes are worth even a little of your money.

In this overview and review of CVLIFE scopes, I’ll take a quick look at several of them to help you determine if a CVLIFE rifle scope is in your future or not. Continue reading “CVLIFE Rifle Scopes: Inexpensive But Do They Work?”

Millett Rifle Scopes Overview: High Quality in 5 Classes

Note: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

You can put Millett rifle scopes into 5 classes of optics. At least, that’s what Millett itself does on their website. They group their several offerings into Designated Marksman, Tactical, Long Range, Tactical Red Dot, and SP Red Dot classes.

You could probably argue that some of those groupings could be combined, but since the makers see them that way, I’ll stick to the same arrangement in this overview and review.

All but a few of the current Millett models have a listing on Amazon. If you’re in a hurry and just want to check the pricing and availability of these Millett scopes at Amazon, you can click (tap) the links in the list below.

Note: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

With the discontinuation of the X-Sight 5-18 Smart Riflescope, you need to look at something similar or perhaps a step up from that scope. The ATN X-Sight II HD 5-20x seems to be the way to go.

If you’re already fairly certain that this is the scope for you, click this link to see the X-Sight II HD 5-20x Riflescope at Amazon. Continue reading “ATN X-Sight II HD 5-20x Day and Night Riflescope Review: Because Math Is Hard 24/7”

Note: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

When all you need is a solid riflescope for hunting, you need look no further than the Sightmark Photon XT.

I probably should have preceded that remark with a “spoiler alert” because now you might not feel the need to read the rest of this article about the 4.6x42S version of this digital night vision scope. Continue reading “Sightmark Photon XT 4.6x42S Digital Night Vision Riflescope: All You Need?”

You’ve heard or read that Zeiss; that is, the Carl Zeiss company, makes some pretty nice rifle scopes. But you wish that you didn’t have to slog through a ton of Zeiss scopes reviews just to find out whether or not a particular Zeiss instrument will work for you.

Every time you go searching for information on scopes, you feel like you’ll just be reading more sales pitches.

Know what? You aren’t alone. Continue reading “How To Make Sense of All the Zeiss Scopes Reviews: Think ‘Terra’”

Leupold VX-1: Review of the Best Rifle Scope in Its Class

Back in 2008, Leupold bought the Redfield brand of optical equipment. They added Rifleman scopes to their lineup of other excellent products. This had the effect of pushing Leupold VX-1 rifle scopes upward relative to their other offerings.

Best Long Range Hunting Scope under $1000 and under $500

As a hunter, unless you are an absolute beginner (and there’s nothing wrong with that), you know that there is a multitude of long range scopes available for your rifle.

It is impossible for a single person to examine every long range hunting scope on the market today. You simply must rely on the advice of others to narrow your choices so you can make your own decision from a handful of models.
