Sniper Crossbow Scope 1.5-5X33 300~450 FPS, 20-100 Yards, R/G/B Illuminated Rifle Scope (ND1.5-5X33CB)

scope is clear and lights are bright

Big for a crossbow but worth every penny! I can see alot with it. Bright reticle colors also making it good for colorblind individuals

I put this on my ar-15. Dialed in at 400 yards on a 6 inch gong. Amazing. Okay, but it's long and heavy. Now taking out a platoon or two from a distance. Heck yea. But it's laying down only. Takes all the fun out. So I put it on my 300 win mag. Dialed in at 1100 yards on a 24 in gong. 4 inch groupings. I'm a 56 year old Marine from the early nineties. I shot expert then and I'm still scary good. I'm freaking happy people. This scope is not a mistake.

I use this on my bench rest 22lr. It has improved my accuracy. Good quality.

Outstanding durable and sturdy quality, it was a perfect fit on my rifle, it was also very easy to install and it came with the tools necessary for installation, sight adjustment is quite on point and calibration was quick as well, worth every penny, i am quite happy with this product.

The Sniper ND1.5-5X33CB weighs in at 19 ounces and measures 10.4" and has a 30mm tube offers power between 300-450 FPS 1.5-5X VIA the magnification ring. Also featuring a 3 color MOA crossbow BDC reticle (red, blue, green) that offers three illumination intensity levels per color, optimized for 20-100 yards. Hinged objective and eyepiece lens covers are a welcome feature! Optics that offer clarity under a variety of lighting conditions allows for increased accuracy. Windage/Elevation adjustments are easily made VIA the Quick Adjustment Turrets at precise 1/2 MOA per click increments Illumination Setting Selecting reticle illumination intensity and color are achieved VIA the illumination dial positioned on the left of the crossbow scope. Adjustments are made by a detente type adjuster. Each color (RGB) offers three illumination intensity values. Mounting The Sniper First making certain that the weapon is unloaded and unlocked in addition to engaging the safety prior to mounting the scope. - First I checked the mount ring locations to ensure proper alignment of both rings-to-picatinny slot locations, leaving the scope ring bolts finger tight. - Once mounted I adjusted the eye relief to achieve an unimpeded full field of view. - Then rotating the scope to assure the reticle crosshair is vertical as well as perpendicular to the weapon, then tightening the scope mount ring bolts being careful not to over-tighten causing tube damage. The Parallax Setting - Aiming at a target I first adjusted the eyepiece focus to it's sharpest point; Making the parallax setting is made by incrementally adjusting the parallax adjustment ring until the sharpest image was achieved. Diopter Setting The ocular focus is adjustable. - To achieve the best possible focus of the crosshair I held the scope a few inches from my eyes then using the Fast Focus Eyepiece to bringing the reticle into a sharp focus. Zeroing The Scope To 100 Yards - I utilized a bore sighting collimator and adhered to it's zeroing instructions. * Each MOA is 1/60th of one degree. * One MOA spreads to roughly 1" per 100 yards. * One MOA is a different size at varied distances. Once Zeroed * Be certain the Windage and Elevation turrets are locked prior to making this adjustment or you will have to start over! - Using a hex wrench I removed the screws that secure the Windage & Elevation dials onto the adjuster itself then carefully pulling the turret cap off of the drum then rotate the dial aligning 0 with the indexing white dot. Locking & Unlocking Turrets * To unlock Windage or Elevation turrets, pull outward to unlock. * To lock Windage or Elevation turrets, push inward to lock. Outcome The day I was testing the Sniper was mixed, providing bright clear skies and then total cloud cover which creates a whole different environment of degraded ambient light availability to scope with. The Sniper 1.5-5X33CB crossbow scope is a well made scope that is easy to setup out of the box. I tested the Sniper in brightly lit conditions that tend to produce glare when scoping, the multi-coated lens employed in this platform did a very good job of maintaining completely viable, glare free clarity even when viewing heavily lit areas that tend to produce unwanted glare. As well, the Sniper scope handled low light conditions well still allowing for accuracy and confidence. Technically Crossbow Scopes are best suited for ranges between 20 and 50 yards catering to the range limitations of a crossbow, however the Sniper would serve very well as a rifle scope too! Rifle scope reticles are similar to crossbow scopes however they most usually feature descending range marks in the vertical reticle, each mark representing increased overall range.

At 1.5-5X the longest shot you'd realistically be able to take is 300 yards, but the ideal shooting distance for this scope would be between 100-150 yards. While hunting it is nice to have the ability to adjust the scope's magnification to improve your field of view and see to both the right and left. This function allows you to quickly acquire your target. It is very easy to mount the scope your self on the upper receiver. I set the scope as far in front as the receiver would allow and slowly moved it back until I had a good view-- which was about 3.5 to 4 inches from my eye. There is color flexibility for the reticle illumination that can be set to red, blue or green. Overall illumination regardless of color is very bright. Multiple colors is nice to have, but I prefer to use green because I find this color works best at low level light. The illumination colors, brightness and very clear optics make it a fun scope to use because it is very easy to see. Scope is waterproof and I did not have any fogging issues. Overall shape and design of the scope allows easy to reach adjustments with an Allen wrench. I did find that once I set the elevation and windage the point of impact remained consistent when I moved around. Aesthetically I like the look of the scope. The only negative about the design is the weight-- the scope is over 2.5 lbs. which is a pound more than other scopes I use with the same magnification. Really good value and a quality scope where the only negative was the weight.
