Vectronix Vector X 10x42mm Evaluation

[ID_Matt]

I’ve only used a couple of the early Gen 2’s. While not as horrible as the Gen 1’s with the blue tint, the color/contrast/clarity was still not as good as the 4x Revics I’ve used, nor as good as these Vectors.

Any laser/read out/feedback time advantage of the sig? Or revic still at the forefront?

I have been using the Revics for competitions for the last several months. We just got our first order of Vector-X 10x42s in at MKM and I have taken them out a few times now. I have gotten the LRF to fail one time, but it was due to beam dispersion with another object in the foreground. I was also unable to replicate the failure.

I have noticed that the clarity of the class is near the same, but the color fidelity in the Vector-Xs are much better and the CA is improved over the Revics as well.

I initially thought that the DMR reticle was going to be too busy in the FOV, but after some practical usage, I see straight through it. Perhaps in low light the red will be to bright to ignore, but I have not noticed so. I spend many hours every week behind a set of binos on a tripod, and I am really enjoying the Vector-Xs so far.

We still have not received out stock of 12x42s and range enhancers, but I am really eager to take those out and play with them.

Nope. The Revics are extremely fast in showing ballistic data.

$1,695 deal at Cameraland this morning made up my mind on the Revic's. Excited to try them. Have been using Sig 6K for competitions and Swaro 12x50 with separate RF for hunting. Hoping these are convince me to sell both!

Whatever was/is causing this specific issue in that piece of ground is consist with the Vectors. Old series Leica Geovid and the Revic’s have zero issues side by side on the same spot. I did but change the lasing mode however, and that might have helped.

Thats what I am seeing as well, though not the difference in CA.

For pure range use on plates, it’s not a problem- what it was designed around. Glassing broken terrain and especially in lowlight- it is not proving to be ideal.

I’m interested to hear what you find.

I find the glass to be mediocre in the Revics.
