Default New Vortex Crossbow scope!

Vortex is going to be announcing a new crossbow scope. It is going to be shown at the ATA about a week from now.

This scope is based on the Vortex Viper PST line up. Here it is! !

Viper PST XBR 2.5-10X44mm

30mm tube
Length 12"
Weight 18.8 oz
Second Focal Plane
Eye Relief 4"
1 MOA adjustment graduation
48 MOA per rotation
86 MOA total
Parallax Setting 75 Yards
CRS Zero Stop
30mm Tube
length = 12"
weight = 8.8 oz
second focal plane
4" eye relief
1 MOA per click
48 MOA per rotation
86 MOA total adjustment
CRS Zero Stop
Parallax set to 75 yds
11 aim point reticule, 6 of which illuminate

Price is expected to be $600.00

This is a major step up in crossbow scopes. Much better quality of glass for clearer & sharper images. Also note that the 44mm objective is going to be a great help in low light situations as is the new crossbow reticule with illumination.

The price is higher than crossbow users are accustomed to, but this scope is a huge step up in quality of optics offered for crossbows till now.

What do you guys think of it? Thoughts good & bad regarding it? ?
