Vortex Gen 2 PST 1-6

Might be worth it if you're getting a second hand razor. Prices are coming down on them and I got mine under $1100.

But for a strict budget, this is looking pretty good.

I haven't had the opportunity the handle either. Have you handled both? I'm curious how similar they are side by side without the sales pitch from the YouTube vids.

I've read that the tube of the Razor nearly disappears when looking down it. I'm curious if the viper would be similar. My eyes are to shitty to really use a red dot but variables always give me a tunnel effect.

I think the 'tunnel' effect is always possible, simply because you are looking down a long tube vice a short RDS housing.

But compared to other LPVs, the PST Gen 2 1-6 is very easy to use and I don't notice the tube at all unless my head gets waaay out of position. It's very forgiving.

ETA I have limited time behind a Razor 1-6 during a carbine course, but that was last year so I don't have any side by side. But I don't see any noticeable difference in FOV / Illumination / etc.

Can anyone compare the quality of the Gen II PST 1-6x with the Burris XTR II scope? I'm trying to decide between the Vortex or the XTR II 1-8x model. I have not seen or handled either one in person.

Thanks,
Cuz.

I have not looked through the 1-6 or 1-8. But I have looked through a 3-15 Burris and a 5-25 PST. The PST was slightly better glass. I do have multiple 1-6 Razors and that glass is supirior to both. That said I think the Burris 1-8 is quite a bit more expensive than the 1-6 PST. Not sure it's worth it unless you need the 8x.
