If you are looking for a high-quality budget friendly rifle scope that delivers great performance and has precise tracking, you might want to consider the Vector Veyron Line of Rifle Scopes. These scopes are designed to meet the needs of hunters, target shooters who demand the best from their optics and at an affordable budget friendly price point.
In this blog post, we will review some of the features and benefits of the Vector Veyron Rifle Scope, and why they are gaining popularity in the shooting community. The Vector Veyron Rifle Scope is offered in first focal plane (FFP) and now is also being offered in a second focal plane (SFP) version. The Veyron lineup offers a wide range of magnification options. The scope is feature rich and has a lot of features found in top tier scopes. Here are a few of the notable features of the Veyron Scope Lines.
- The reticle is illuminated, with 6 brightness settings that can be adjusted with a side knob. The illumination feature is useful for low-light conditions or when aiming at dark backgrounds.
- The scope has a 30mm tube diameter, which provides a large field of view and with a 44mm objective provides excellent light transmission. The lenses are fully multi-coated, which reduces glare and enhances clarity and contrast. The scope also has a fast focus eyepiece, which allows you to quickly adjust the diopter to suit your eye. The eye relief is generous, at 3.5 inches, which gives you enough space to avoid recoil injuries.
- The scope is equipped with a resettable turret feature so you can reset to zero. The turrets are also lockable, which prevents accidental adjustments or movements during transport or storage. The turrets have a crisp and audible click feedback, and each click corresponds to 0.1 MRAD of adjustment. The scope has a total adjustment range of 14.5 MRAD for both elevation and windage.
- The scope is made of aircraft-grade aluminum, which makes it durable and lightweight. The scope is also shockproof, waterproof, and fog proof, which means it can withstand harsh weather and environmental conditions. The scope comes with a honeycomb style sunshade, lens caps, and a cleaning cloth. The scope has a matte black finish, which gives it a sleek and professional look.
We tested out 2 Vector Veyron Scopes and put them head-to-head to compare the differences and likenesses of each scope. The scope we tested were the Vector Optics Veyron 6-24x44 IR FFP Model SCFF-37 and the Vector Optics Veyron 6-24x44 IR SFP Model SCOL-49.
Both scopes are identical in appearance, however they are totally different scopes, and each has specific purposes. Below we list the specs of each scope. We tested these because although both are similar, one is a First Focal Plane Scope and the other is Second Focal Plane. They also feature two different reticles that are Christmas tree patterns however the second focal plane version had the MPR V10 reticle that featured numerous subtention marks for precise holdover points. The FFP version featured the MPR V5 Reticle that also has subtention and holdover reference dots allowing for fast target engagement.
We mounted the Veyron FFP 6-24x44 on a precision target rimfire. We took shots at 25, 50 and 75 yards during our testing and were very pleased at the fast target engagement and accuracy of the holdover marks.
We also mounted the Veyron SFP 26-24x44 on a Bejamin Akela PCP air rifle. Again we tested the scope at 25, 50 and 75 yards and longer distances used the holdover marks to engage targets. We successfully engaged the targets with extreme accuracy.
Prior to mounting these scopes on the test guns, we performed a box test on both scopes, and both returned to zero without issue. We also performed the same test after the test session, and both still passed the box test.
These are budget rifle scopes, and a downfall of many budget scopes are poor glass clarity. As you may know from prior testing on Vector Paragon and Continental series scopes, we have high standards for glass clarity. Veyron being a budget offering in a compact form factor I did not expect the glass clarity to be excellent. However, to my surprise, although not the same glass quality as the Paragon and Continental which are more expensive offerings, the Veyron’s both were VERY clear edge to edge. That was a very pleasant surprise. For the modest price point of these budget ultra compact scopes the glass clarity performs above most scopes in the same price range.
From our test I concluded that this offering is great for the average shooter that is looking for a budget offering and a compact scope platform. For the modest price it performs slightly above what most would expect from an budget offering. A few key aspects we love are the side focus parallax focus down to 10 yards. This should be appealing to the serious air gun shooters as short distance shots are quite common in that discipline of shooting. This scope will work well on any PCP Air Rifle, Rimfire Rifle, AR platforms due to the Ultra Compact design and would be appropriate for light to moderate centerfire hunting rifles. The Vector Veyron Rifle Scope is a versatile and reliable scope that can handle many shooting scenarios. Whether you are hunting, plinking, or target shooting, this scope will provide you with the accuracy and precision you need.
