Fellas,
-I know this topic is a little dated but I wanted to give my 2 cents on the Trijicon Huron 3-9x40
with the #4 reticle. I have two of these rifle scopes and they are used for Northeastern US deer
hunting in heavily forested terrain.
The Huron offers amazing clarity and resolution for an optic in this price range. I can honestly
say that it performs way above its price point. The low light performance is exceptional as well,
for a 40mm Obj. 1" tube. Eye relief is more along the 3.3-3.5" range, real world set up on my
Defiance Machine Tenacity action (308 win.)
Windage and Elevation adjustments are spot on and have a audible click that you can also feel
as you make adjustments. Shooting "the box" to verify adjustments, is easy and a repeatable
excercise and instills confidence in using this scopes adjustments.
In closing, I wish to state that the Trijicon Huron line of rifle scopes should be a very strong consideration
if you are looking for an upper mid-level rifle scope. I swapped out a Zeiss Conquest V4 in 3-12x44 for
this Trijicon. The Zeiss, to MY eye; could not compare to the resolution and contrast offered by the Trijicon and the brightness of the two were equal. However the "sweet spot" was hard to find on the Zeiss and
no where as easy as on the Trijicon. Edge to Edge clarity is hands down better on the Huron. And Trijicon
has a reputation for building scopes that are extremely tough.
Thanks for letting me share my thoughts on this line of scopes and I think you should give them a try
as I find they are much better than Leupold, Zeiss Conquest V4 and on par Optically with Swarovski Z3
and Z5 glass.
