Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24 30 mm FFP EBR-8 (SKU: SE-1801)

If you own an AR15 rifle, you're likely considering the purchase of a Low Power Variable Optics (LPVO) scope—a compact optic with variable magnification. Unlike traditional scopes that start with a minimum magnification of 3-4x, LPVO scopes begin at the true 1x magnification and typically offer a maximum magnification of 10x. These scopes are popularly used with AR-15 rifles and hunting weapons due to their ability to facilitate dynamic and precise shooting at various distances. The Vortex LVPO sight, specifically the Strike Eagle 1-8x24 model, boasts exceptional versatility, making it a preferred choice among sport shooters, military and law enforcement personnel, as well as hunters.

The Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24 scope features an illuminated EBR-8 reticle located in the foreground. As you adjust the magnification, the First Focal Plane (FFP) reticle expands or shrinks proportionally, allowing for easier reading and precise corrections when shooting at longer distances. The laser-etched reticle on the glass ensures reliability and durability of the optics.

The illuminated aiming point, represented by a dot and an open circle, offers 11 brightness adjustment levels, enabling you to fine-tune the illumination according to your specific needs. With a wide adjustment range, this scope ensures comfortable usage in all lighting conditions, including compatibility with night vision devices (the two lowest brightness settings). Additionally, the generous 99mm distance from the exit pupil ensures that the shooter's eyesight remains relaxed, as the target naturally aligns with the field of view. This feature also accommodates the comfortable use of corrective lenses and provides recoil protection when paired with high-caliber firearms. With its true 1x magnification and illuminated sight, this scope functions as a collimator, allowing for dynamic shooting at close distances.

The EBR-8 reticle takes into account the ballistics of ammunition for calibers such as .223 Rem/.308/7.62, but it can also be used with other calibers by making adjustments using the Bullet Drop Compensation (BDC) scale. An additional upper scale facilitates quick target distance calculations. The adjustments for the reticle are made using low-profile, covered turrets with knurled covers, enabling easy settings changes even while wearing gloves. Each click of the turret adjusts the reticle by 1/4 MOA (7mm/100m). The full range of adjustment for the reticle is 145 MOA both vertically and horizontally.
