Wanted to shoot this scope for a while before writing a review on it. After using it in a PRS match, I feel I have a pretty good handle on things. First, it's a very capable scope and a steal at the clearance prices. Put it on budget builds all day. However, I have some issues with it. First, focus knob and magnification ring are WAY too hard to turn. Had to buy a cat tail for the magnification and the focus is always a pain to turn (I eventually stopped using it during the competition because it just wasn't working for me). Second, there's not enough elevation travel in the turret. I shoot 22 LR with 30 MOA base to 300 yds and 6.5 Creedmoor with 20 MOA base to 1200 yds; there isn't enough travel to dial either. On my ruger precision rifle, there are about 12.2 mils left in turret after I zero at 100 yds on a 20 moa base. In both cases, the EBR-2C reticle is a nice feature as hold overs will be needed. 3rd, glass is OK but noticeably worse than my razor gen 1. Spotting my impacts at 500 yards at my last PRS match was difficult due to glass quality. At distances further than that, forget about it. Eye box and eye relief are both also less forgiving than nicer scopes like the PST gen2, but that didn't cause me any issues. For less experienced shooters, that could be a real problem though.
However, I'm OK with that, and glass quality for the price. CRS zero stop works adequately well and dials were accurate and repeatable. Illumination works well. EBR-2C reticle and FFP are both a bargain at this price point. Bottom line: if you're on a tight budget, buy it; it will serve you well, but be prepared to deal with issues described above. If you're looking for a scope to shoot 1,000+ yards or compete with, I'd step up to a razor gen1, pst gen2, or comparable quality scope.

I have both Viper PST Gen 2 6x25x50 and a Vortex razor hd 4.5-27x56. While the Razor HD is a fantastic scope it's little brother the Viper PST Gen 2 closes the gap considerably. If the Razor is worth $2500. I would put the PST at $1800 in true value, they are just that close. I will most likely buy another PST before I buy another Razor HD.

This optic opens the door to using a 1st Focal Plane reticle @ long range. No more constantly spinning the turrets. I think it's just the ticket for Precision Rimfire or PRS type shooting.

Can't beat the price or the service at europtic even during corona virus when others take weeks to ship europtic still ships the same day you buy oh and this scope is great I now have 6 or 7 of these half in moa and half in mrad great scope for the price the last one I ordered came with malfunctioning cross hair which I had to send back to vortex and they fixed it for free but it cost me 38 bucks to ship being brand new and never using it they should have paid for so I'm not happy about that

Great deal on a great scope! Sturdy quality build with a lifetime no questions asked warranty, what else could you ask for. The glass is really clear and comfortable on the eye. Turrets are very distinct and positive. After researching scopes for the last couple of years, I didn't settle but chose this scope as it had features mainly found in more expensive scopes. I may have saved a lot of money with what I was expecting to spend, but I didn't have to forfeit anything by doing so. My experience with Eurooptic.com was simple and their shipping was fast. I couldn't be happier.

Best scope for the $. Very crisp. If you were debating a Diamondback or Viper then go with the PST gen1 - you won’t be disappointed having FFP + illuminated reticle. I can’t speak of the optics compared to the other lower tier options but I really have nothing to complaint. The release of gen2 really put this to an excellent price point vs feature! Eurooptic was the cheapest out there for the 6-24 I could find. Highly recommended!

Crisp clear, and very decent price, this $500 value can beat $1K's from any other brand . I know this is a discontinued product, but since Vortex has lifetime warranty, it's not a problem. And Eurooptic's service is the very best. The scope was shipped within a couple of days after I placed the order, think about it, in this pandemic time when all the other online stores are sluggish.

This new scope is amazing. Never thought I own an optic with this quality of glass. Vortex stands by its optics, and customers. I have all vortex optics. And thank you euro optic for the hook up, I look forward to doing business with you again.

At this point it's just been mounted but I will admit that I read every review on the entire internet before deciding to make the purchase.
There were a few points that were negative so I was on the lookout for these potential defects..... much to my delight, the hard to turn power ring was easy to turn. Same with the parallax adjustment. Both are as smooth as my $3200 Steiner. The SV-2 throw lever isn't needed for leverage on this scope but I'm used to using them on my other rifles so I'm still glad I got it!
From a limited session, I have none of the complaints regarding glass quality and believe it to compare with scopes that cost twice as much as the sale price.
Once the range dries out, I'm going to run it through my usual testing procedure to verify tracking and such.
On a side.... Eurooptic is the place for reasonable deals on great products. Always fast shipping and they do what they say! Could not be happier with the scope and the vendor. This is just one more in my Vortex Optics collection and might become my favorite in short time.

I have a total of 4 Viper PST 3 Gen I 6x24 FFP and a Gen II 5x25 FFP. These scopes have always been amazing values. Rock solid and clarity on par with current offering by Leupold at prices 1/3rd less. With the Gen I's on sale I think I'll end up buying more as long as the supply continues.

First time ordering from eurooptic. Products arrived in original sealed packaging...packed appropriately so as not to be damaged during shipping...mounted scope and zeroed in 3 shots...just like my other vortex scopes, all pst’s ....the glass is clear and bright...turrets are crisp..huge fan of the tactical turrets ....they are accessible (no need to take off caps)...zero stop is a great feature...lighted reticle has 10 different brightnesses(including a level for night vision) with off between every brightness level and most importantly...when I dial in adjustments...the Scope “listens” and moves the appropriate distance. Every time. To get this many features in any other scope costs 2x-3x what you would pay for the vortex ....and that’s retail price...even better on closeout The reticle on this scope is in my opinion the “best” for my application as it is perfect for holdover shots when you have multiple targets at different ranges and moving targets ..for when you don’t have time to dial them in. This is a top notch product. ...ps. Vortex customer service is excellent and they stand behind their warranty. I bought a used pst 4x16 and the previous owner did not use a torque screwdriver(get one to avoid this happening to you) and tightened the rings to tight. Sent the scope back, as I could tell something was wrong. They explained what had happened and sent a replacement. That was my first vortex, and every other scope I have bought since has been a vortex. Buy with confidence

Amazing glass. Exceeds my expectations. Quick zero on my 338. Hitting steel at 1200 yards (verified with Leica rangefinder) after just 5 rounds to zero at 100 yards.

I am just getting into Precision shooting. I bought this to mount on a Ruger Precision rifle. Can't wait to get it all up and running. Very Hefty scope and seems to be great quality. The customer service at EuroOptics is fantastic. There was an error in shipping. I received a call from them and they overnight shipped the scope. Will use them again.

I purchased the Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 MRAD EBR-2C Riflescope, this is a quality product, I have it deployed on several weapon systems in the Gen 1 and also the Gen 2. You can search the internet and you won’t fine a better price than here at EuroOptic.com. Fast delivery and great support.

Super clear optics at low power, and very good at higher magnifications. A little fuzzy around the edge when maxed out, but for the money no other scope in this price range even comes close to matching it.

Excellent clarity, fit and function on this scope. The reticle is easy to look at, with no eye fatigue due to its crisp design. The elevation and Windage turrets work very well with solid-feeling adjustments at every turn. I would purchase this optic again in a heartbeat! Plus: Eurooptic’s Service is second to NONE. They show that they are willing and more than able to help you find what you are looking for. Thanks!

My first Vortex scope, and was able to take advantage of the $$ difference between Gen1 and Gen2. Mounted it to my Savage 10 FCP McMillan. I like the clarity and the quality. So much so that I bought a second one for my Ruger RPR. And Euro has their act together, unlike the other major company with 'Optics' in their name. Great prices, great comms, fast shipping and no BS.

EuroOptic's service was great. Fast and easy. The price on this particular scope is AMAZING!
This scope is easily the best in class for precision rifle shooters wanting the best scope in the $1000 range. It is actually a smarter choice than spending $350-$450 on some of the second and third tier brands. With an EBR-2C reticle, positive repeatable turret adjustment, great optical clarity and light weight,
there's no contest. It is little long for an AR15 but perfect for a AR10 or bolt action long gun.
Would buy and recommend again, all day long.

Great product and value - I have another like this (with the EBR-1) Reticle and while the Gen 2 would have been nice, it's not "hundreds of dollars" nicer than this quality piece of glass!

At Europtic's clearance price of $500, it's a steal! I mounted mine on a self-built AR-10-class (260 REM Shilen 24" 1:8" barrel) and it shoots under an MOA up to 600 yd. I don't shoot much further, so its elevation knob has plenty of travel for me. Yes, the power ring is very stiff, but for the price I can live with it. I'm learning to use the FFP EBR-2C (Horus-type) reticle. I'm finding that it lets me shoot as accurately with a lower magnification and less time twisting turrets, both of which improve my situational awareness through the scope. Of course, this kind of reticle is useless without an anti-cant bubble level - I use the Vortex lo-pro for its small size.

This is my second Vortex rifle scope in less than 6 months. I had inherited a Ruger #1 Varminter in .22-250 with a fixed 8 power scope on the rifle. The scope was almost 50 years old and I wanted to upgrade the optics. Since I plan to use this for ground hog/varmint and long range shooting, I thought the magnification option and the reticle selection would be perfect. The unconditional lifetime warranty was also a plus. Great glass! Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase

So far so good. I mounted it on a Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5 creedmoor. Had Cabelas mount and boresight it. The indoor range close to me is only 25 yards but I was able to put two rounds in 1 hole. This is my first foray into long range and if my 25 yard experience holds up, this will be a good scope.

Scope is very well made and has good optics. The zero stop works well and the clicks have a good feel no slop or mush, a click is a click. Bought this for my ruger rpr and have found it to be ideal for this rifle in both proformance and price. I installed and zeroed the scope on a different rifle and then reinstalled on my ruger with the recorded settings and was right back in a 1" square at 100yds. Very repeatable.
