No, I designed some graphics wraps for my Leshiy, they're cut vinyl... I have several different camo patterns...

Tac Vector Veyron 3-12 FFP
- Thread starter JoeWayneRhea
- Start date
I like it so far, after a few shots to sight it in put up a target and shot a quick 5 shot group... Happy with the performance so far... 5 shots JSB 15.89 gr, about 20 yards...

A couple clicks, looks good enough until I can get out and zero for 40 yards... The distance I usually shoot at...
So, my two thumbs up for the scope, shooting and glass, reticle and adjustments... A boo hiss that the provided scope rings don't work with a Leshiy and a boo hiss that the flip up objective lens cap not fitting (clearance on Leshiy shroud)... I still like it... A lot...

OK, short update, the ring height issue really bugged me, so I set about looking for the "perfect" set of rings to mount my new Veyron on my Leshiy… Most 30mm "High" rings are .70" from the top of the rail to the bottom of the scope cradle (My Weavers and Warnes measure the same as do a cheap set from local store)... The Leshiy shroud makes it impossible to install the flip up lens cap, not enough clearance... I found a set of UTG "high" rings that state .86" between the top of the rail and bottom of the scope cradle, they will be in my hands later today and I will be able to confirm it they work or not, I really want to avoid using any intermediate parts like a riser or such to get the clearance needed... I'll report back on the new rings...

Tac Vector Veyron Leshiy scope ring issue solved... I found a set of "UTG" High Profile Scope rings, they solved my clearance issue quite well...

I am torn between this scope and the Discovery....Small field of view might be the deal breaker for the Discovery.
Any updates on how everybody likes this scope?

I'm still digging mine . It's fun to see.guys faces when they look thru it for the first time. I think they are like me and when they see the size , they aren't expecting much . But it's very bright and clear .

The housing looks exactly the same (only difference I can see are the turretcaps and the magnifying ring), I suspect the glass and the geometry are the same make as well, so that makes for the same narrow FOV on both...But still very workable...

I don't normally jump in on conversations like this. I have spoken to Chris at SWFA, the Discovery took their reticle, this was enough for me not to carry them anymore.

Small field of view con the Veyron/Discovery 3-12x44 FFP, really??
The Vector webpage says this:
FoV 35.1-8.7 feet@ 100 yds = 6.7-1.7°
Now, that a wider field of view than e.g., the Bushnell Engage 3-12x42, or the Sightron S-TAC 3-16x42, or the Athlon Talos 3-12x40, or the Hawke Airmax 30 SF 3-12x50, or the UTG Bugbusters and Accushots of 3-12x.
As I'm interested in short scopes I collected some specs and this was one that's important to me, so I was a little suprised to read that someone considered it a small FoV -- I thinks it's actually at least upper average.
Happy shooting!

Well, from looking at the data of some other short scopes you mention you are right indeed.
It's just that the FOV seems (and is) narrower than when looking through a longer ("regular sized") scope on the same magnification. (and when comparing looking thourgh the MTC short eye relief range of scopes, the difference is gigantic, but then again the MTCs have a G A P I N G P A N O R A M I C W I D E S C R E E N FOV...)
Again, nothing wrong with the Discovery or the TAC Veyron, my remark is just to not expect the widescreen panoramic field of view, but a "regular" looking through a paper toilet roll tube experience.

The "'regular' looking through a paper toilet roll tube experience." —> Yupp, you nailed it...! Great picture!

Just looked at the MTC Viper connect and they run double of what the Veyron runs. Not sure the Leshiy will need a scope like the MTC so I think I will get the Veeyron from Edgun this week. Just wish it had a lit reticle.
Thanks for all the replies

is the Tac Vector Veyron 3-12 FFP the same as the Vector Optics Veyron 3-12x44mm sold @ optics planet ?
https://www.opticsplanet.com/vector-optics-veyron-3-12x44mm-rifle-scope.html?_iv_code=EG-RS-VEY312X44-SCOM-24
it's available in FFP or SFP , but i'll be interested in the SFP version . does having "tac" in front mean it's a whole different animal ? or is it the same scope from the same assembly line with a name change and a different price ?
heres a review of the 4-16 by AAR

I was lucky enough to get one in trade for an expired SCBA tank. Clarity & crispness of image across entire field of view blows me away! Very distinct clicks on the turrets too. Clearer than my Hawke Sidewinder! Got it to "lighten the load" on my Boss (with a Donny Ronin, Sidewinder 6x24x56 & a Tactacam w/FTS it's getting to be a hernia maker!) Oh, thanks for your video on the Tactacam. ANOTHER $460 I had to spend (LOL).

They are the same.
Optics Planet seems to have the best price, so far.
Pointing, thru Amazon, has them but for a higher price:

Personally, I like the looks of the Optisan CP better.
Low-slung turrets and a smaller front piece make it look sexier.
I abhor big heads, lol!
The Hawke Touch also looks nice except for its outrageously long turrets that make it look like a crucifix, lol again!
