Does anyone have experience with either the 4-16 or the 6-24 SFP scopes? I am interested in clarity and actual focus ability out to about 80 meters. Both of these scopes look to be a good size for my incoming Epic Two Lite 300mm.

I've heard complaints regarding 4-16 but 3-12 has good reviews. I've five 6-24s in SFP and FFP, IR and non-IR, can't be more impressed. Super-subcompact size and weight is perfect for airguns, crystal clear optics and smooth functioning round out the package. WM

I have the SFP 4-16 and find the clarity is quite good. I did an evaluation of this, an Optisan CP and a German GPO scopes with similar dimensional qualities. They are all good, but of course, the more expensive they are, the better the optical quality, but not by much. The controls (windage, elevation) on the Veyron are a bit stiff, but doable.

Compact Scope Comparison
There are more and more good quality scopes being produced today, but the manufacturers seem to shy away from compact scopes. Most are too long and too heavy and are designed to produce large magnification and all kinds of fancy features. There are a few available, but all into the cheap gun...

Vector Veyrons include flip-up scope covers, honeycomb sun shade and a decent set of rings. Taipan Veteran and FXs mounted perfect with included rings but AGT (Uragan, Uragan 2 and Vulcan 3) all needed cantilever scope rings, as shown in photo, for proper eye relief. WestHunter and Marcool are two cantilever ring brands I've used. Only complaint is if eye piece is adjusted out a ways the flip-up scope cover doesn't grip well, a strip of electrical tape between scope and cap does help. WM

I recently ordered this scope. We shall see how good it is.

I used to think my SFP Veyron 6-24 was not as clear as my Athlon Talos 6-24 but I think it was just me not adjusting the parallax as well as possible. It has good glass for the money. I like the turrets that lock when you push them down. They adjust pretty well, not like my Arken but for small adjustments it works great. Large adjustments take a few shots to settle in. I'm debating buying another. I know of nothing else with its size and features and price.

Was my first VV, recommended by member. Very impressed but 12 power wasn't making it shooting dime-size circles @ 50 yards. Three AGTs, 2 FXs and a Taipan Veteran wear 6-24x44s, IR, non-IR, SFP and FFP. Six shade red center dot IR is outstanding, easily dialed down to avoid washout of sight picture. WMI recently ordered this scope. We shall see how good it is.

I run my Hawke's at 4x or 6x so that is my baseline. Hard to beat a Hawke so we shall see.
I can always throw it on a PB. Got a new 7.62x39 BCA that it could fit on.

Tried a bunch of mid-priced scopes, including Hawke, but super-subcompact, light weight Vector Veyrons with side-to-side crystal clarity, a same price point, was a gamechanger. I swear they transformed my airguns favorably in appearance and function. WMI run my Hawke's at 4x or 6x so that is my baseline. Hard to beat a Hawke so we shall see.
