Next step up from Trijicon

[Djahnsen]

Hey guys I have a Trijicon Huron 4-16x50 and absolutely love it. I’m looking for another scope for my next build and was wondering where to go if I want to keep the reliability and simplicity while upping the glass quality. I’m certainly not complaining about the glass quality of this scope but want to make the next step up. Keeping the capped turrets and the adjustable parallax are a must for me. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Everyone is going to say the new rokslide scope.

If you want to keep capped turrets, probably this. In the same price range, and magnification range, I don't know what's getting better than what you have. As much as I like the Nightforce SHV scopes, I don't know that there's really THAT much of an improvement, glass wise. I'm comparing the 3-9 Huron to the 3-10 SHV. I think the 3-10 is a bit better though. If you want more ruggedness and don't mind more weight, the SHV 4-14 might be your thing.

Most of us have never seen it. It may be a great scope but only a few have used it.

You’re not gonna be blown away by the 4-14x SHV’s if comparing them to the 4-16x Huron. I think you might actually be disappointed as for $627 at EuroOptic, the value of the Huron can’t be beat. The biggest differences to me are the reticle choices the and availability of illumination if you want that. Glass is too close to edge one out over the other in my opinion.

I’d say the Trijicon Credo 2.5-15 or a Trijicon Accupoint in similar power. I like the Accupoint for the way it is illuminated and there’s some more capped turret options.

Thanks all yeah the illumination does nothing for me and I like the simple reticle of the Huron so it’s looking like I’ll be buying a second thank you guys!

I went from 3-9x40 Huron to 2.5-10x50 S&B T96.

The Huron is a nice scope but not a low light scope imo. It is better than many, you'll see the reticle at the last minute on a clear day but not into the woods. Shot a buck in the very first minute of legal but in a field. Also couldn't see 2 in the shadows during legal shooting time.

Decided to just cut thru the crap and just get it - arguably one of the best low light scope made. Need to put it on the rifle.

The Credo HX 2.5-15 is a great scope

This, and from the look at that hog hanging in your profile pic, SB is perfect.
Mine, although the elevation turret is un-capped, but has zero stop and lockable level, is the best legal low light optic out there. Excellent glass, durable, does have illumination but works best in lower light situations which it is designed for. Here is a closeup of the throw level that will lock the turret at any position, but like I mentioned, has zero stop as well. Mine is the 4-16x56 Polar T96 series, but they make other models.

I see. That looks like it’s gonna be high on the wish list then. What do they typically run for?
