Vector Optics Veyron 4-16

[MACTEN]

I got the V-V 4-16 the other day..

It passes the 109 yard test I use out my back door where there is a sign with small lettering.
If I can read it easily and clearly at max power, it's a keeper.

I have a few scopes in my closet that won't pass the test.
It's at a minimum as clear as the Vortex Venom 3-15 which I also consider pretty clear glass.
Either I'm not as picky as some, or it's a good solid scope with a very bright and clear image.
I'm glad at this this V-V 4-16 is good as I had read that some have had issues.

I used to think my Vector Veyron 6-24 was not as clear as my Athlon Talos 6-24 but I just didn't get the parallax adjusted as well on the Veyron. With that fixed it is pretty clear. My Arken EPL-4 6-24 is noticably more clear but it is also noticably more expensive. I like the Vector locking turrets but I find they will not go in to the lock position sometimes. Moving a click one way or the other has solved this so far. 1 click is not much at my normal range of 30 yards. To me the big advantage of the Veyron is its size. It better matches my small bullpups.

FFP or SFP? Thanks.

FFP...

No personal Veyron 4-16 experience but read some member concerns. Was similarly impressed with 3-12 and 6-24. WM

My 6-24 is SFP. The Veyron reticle is not terribly fine but I think it would still be difficult to see at 6X in a FFP. I like to pest at 6X so I prefer SFP.

I bought SFP to be able to use 6X but it looks like they are also $100 less at Amazon.

Surprisingly, the Veyron is pretty decent for an inexpensive scope. It works, but at the bottom end of that price spectrum. My only criticism is that the turrets and kind of hard to manipulate, but it's still workable.

I was griping a little about how it doesn't fit well for me on my Avenger. A cantilever mount might cure that for me. Aside from that, I think it's fine.

Don't recall fit complaints regarding 4-16, but specifics escape me. Had to use cantilever on my AGT guns, FX and Taipan, with longer pic rails, were no problem. WM
