Looking to upgrade the glass on my PRS production rig. I have a Gen 1 Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 now. Theres nothing wrong with it I just want something with 10 MIL per rev of the turret. I can get the Gen 2 PST Viper 5-25x 50 for $780. MY question is if there is anything else out there worth looking at? I want it in MRAD turrets and reticle with a christmas tree style. It will probably go in a seekins 20 MOA mount just like my current setup ( which will be moved to my rimfire trainer) . So whats out there thats as good or better than the gen 2 PST? Keep in mind that for production class the scope has to have an MSRP below $2000 which sucks because if it was higher I would buy an razor HD and be done. Thanks
 
Is the MSRP thing a new rule or something? I haven't shot a match in like 2 years, so I'm a bit out of touch.

Production class is Rifle less than $2500 MSRP and Scope less than $2000 MSRP. So you can't buy a used AMG or something like that because its based off of MSRP. Trust me If I could I would lol

Had no idea they even broke it into classes. Lol

They created a class for people to get competitive in without spending a fortune. As said it has price limits on the rifle and optocs and what you can modify. I bought the 6 cm savage elite precision for that class.
 
That's a good question, and I dont know to be honest.


Gen 1 has small turrets and each rev is like 5 mil. The gen 2 have big turrets and each rev is 10 mil. I think the glass is a bit better. The illumination is also moved from the eyepiece to the same knob as the parallax. Turret is the big difference.

Compared to gen 1 razor the razor still has bigger tube 34 vs 30mm and better glass at the edges.

Let us know how you like it. I have an XTR II, which isn't bad. Tracks well. Repeatable. Works for me for now. A little dark at max magnification, but that's probably expected at that price point.

I went and zeroed it this morning and I like it so far. The clicks are nice and positive. Glass seems good ( better than my gen 1 viper) Probably not as good as the Razor but like you said at this price point its to be expected. Going to take it out to 1200 tomorrow. I will report back with my thoughts on it after the range session.
