- It has the same massive FOV as the Vortex 1-10x24, but with less distortion at 1x. The type of distortion is a bit different too. Instead of distortion at the edges while static it’s only noticeable when slowly panning from left to right. Hard to explain.
- The reticle is better than the Vortex 1-10 or Trijicon Credo 1-8.
- - The Vortex has a center dot that ‘sheds off’ as it magnifies. Problem is you can’t use the center dot at mid magnification at range bc the outer reticle rings havnt properly shed off enough and it covers up the target too much. But there are excellent holds and ranging tools that work great at distance.
- - The Trijicon Credo has a ring style over a simple mil dot reticle. Problem is the center ring doesn’t leave the FOV at magnification like the Vudu 1-10, and the Trijicon’s clutters up the view substantially under magnification. Theres also no wind holds.
- - The Vudu has a speed ring like their HWS 1x optics, and the ring leaves the FOV completely at 5.5x. The center reticle group is very usable at 5.5x and up, and has excellent wind and elevation holds.
- It is not as bright as the Vortex, but the illumination is more ‘crisp’. It’s slightly brighter than the Trijicon.
- It does have slightly more distortion than the truly distortion free Vudu 1-8 SFP (my previously favorite LPVO). It’s completely different than the Vudu 1-8. I’d say the Vudu 1-8 is still better from point blank to 200 yards. But if you want 1 optic to do just about anything and everything, this is the optic to get.
