Cool! What's your intended use for it? That will get ya up close and personal with your targets. What are you putting it on?

I took your lead and just ordered one of these. I went with the more traditional target dot reticle for bench rest. Also ordered 2 sets of quick release rings so I can swap scopes on my RAW at will. The other is the Falcon 5.5-25x50 ffp mil/mil tactical scope. Should be cool!

I bought a Vector Optics 10-40X56 FFP about a month ago. I liked it so much I ended up getting a 8-32X56 FFP. I'm digging it also.

So how do you like this scope? The price is amazing for FFP & variable power! Where is the catch?

No BULL! I sold my hawk scopes and bought these. Very accurate Just as good, If not better.

It's a different scope. That link was to a Vector Optics FFP. I meant I got the VO 8-32x56 FFP in addition to the 10-40x56. Sorry for the miss up. I'm still loving it and totally surprised of the cost. I checked reviews and it's been around for awhile. I found reviews back as far as 2008 and all were favorable. They were mounted on hi powered firearms for the most part.

It's all good. Thanks for clarifying. Amazon not selling the Monarch anymore but I found it https://www.omegamanufacturinginc.com/Vector-Optics-Monarch-8-32x56-First-Focal-Plane-Rifle-Scope_p_313.html
I don't know the site but price appears good.

That's where I got my Monarch from too. They are the same sellers as the Amazon sellers I got the 10-40x56. I also got a 6-25x56 Counterpunch FFP scope from them. FYI If you apply for a "dealers" account it knocks $20 off the price.

Probably the 8-32. It has standard mildots where as the 10-40 has hash marks. The 6-25 has a MP reticle which I think I'm going to use for very long distance.

I really like it. I didn't see any reviews on amazon so I just googled vector optics reviews and got a few hits from firearm forums and they were all positive. Since I already had the Monarch and Sagittarius I felt comfortable getting it. I've only had the Counterpunch a week so I have only mounted it and zeroed it at 50 yards. It has a nice bright, clear picture and I like the reticle.

Thanks, the reticle is why I'm wondering. I like it a lot more than the reticle of the Monarch. 6-25x56 should be plenty for me unless the image gets too dark at full magnification.
What do you have the Counterpunch mounted to? My intention is to put it on a Vulcan .25. It's the most affordable, compact hard hitting .25 that is accurate to 100+ yards and I'd like the scope to be able to match that range and accuracy.

I have it on a 357 cal Ace Titan right now. But I'm moving it to my 30 cal BT65 for long range plinking.
