Trijicon Question

The Accupoint is one of my favorite scopes. I love the crisp corrections, clear glass, and, when I need it, the tritium illumination.
 
I can't tell the difference between the eye relief of my Huron vs my Leupolds or Vortex. If I bought another scope it would be a Trijicon.
 
I’ve been migrating over to Trijicon Accupoint 3-9x40 green mil-dot scopes on virtually all of my big game rifles. I regularly practice to 600 yards and don’t find 9X top end to be a handicap. Previously, I was running a Nightforce NSX 2-10 on my mountain rifle. I’m much happier with my current set up.View attachment 935089
Do you hold over on the mil dots or do you dial the scope?
 
I loved the Huron 3-12 I had. In hindsight, wish I still had it. FWIW It dialed and returned reliably (although not extensively) to 500.
 
I can’t speak to the specific scopes you’re considering but regarding Trijicon products, we ran some Trijicon optics in Iraq and beat on them pretty hard.

I own two Tenmile 3-18x44 scopes. I have run one on multiple backcountry hunts. On one occasion, a wind gust knocked my rifle off of a boulder and it landed hard enough on the scope to gouge the parallax knob and the objective bell. The scope had no zero shift at all.

The other scope has been on my NRL Hunter competition rifle for a full season and I shot 5 matches with it and all associated training. That’s dialing elevation for almost every single one of over 2500 rounds (I keep a log of round counts). I imagine once factoring for some of those being groups fired for load development and zero confirmation, I’ve dialed that scope well over 2,000 times. It hasn’t missed a beat, has never lost zero, and I don’t expect it to.

I’m pulling off my competition rifle for next season (switching to an optic that’s more competition oriented) but that scope will go straight onto my 7PRC mountain hunting rifle.

I’d have zero issues buying another Trijicon scope.
