ACOG or Nikon looks good on those little bows.

I do like that comment “beware the high price of cheap scope” :thumbup:

I'm somewhat of a scope junkie but have found one that just plain works for all my needs! :)

Redfield Revenge crossbow scope made under the Leupold roof!

They are selling now for as low as $60.00. :)

I just ordered one for my Grizzly. Any issues or useful hints for sighting it in? Should be light years ahead of my Vari-Zone. :thumbup:

Good call!

No issues so far.

Sight main crossbar @ 20yards
Move the target out to 30yards
Aim at target again using the main 20 yard crosshair.
POI will be low
Adjust the 30yard crosshair to where the arrow hit with the speed ring.

Will be good to go out to 60 yards! ;)
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

I like Leupold 1.25-4x VXR scopes. I have the VXR Patrol with the SPR Reticle and it’s very light, bright, and Firedot illumination is :clap: I can use the reticle or the elevation turrets for the yardages I hunt at, (usually under 50y).
Is it a single reticle or holdover lines?

Thanks
Google SPR Reticle... it’s a circle with a crosshair through the centre. It also has mil-dots on the main vertical crosshair which can be used too. Keep in mind, if you use the reticle you need to determine exact yardages. I use the dial usually, but in a pinch I know my holdovers too.

I wouldn't discount the Tact 100. Its a nice scope that is the right size.

Does anyone know where I can find a picture of the Tact 100 reticle?

Thanks!
