Trijicon Tenmile 4.5-50x56

Finally got my rifle back and have 20 rounds down range and I like this scope.

I picked up the tenmile a little while ago just to see if it would be close to the Nightforce Comp for use in F Class. Seemed like a risk but Trigicon has a good reputation for the most part. Set it up and did some side by side comparisons with the Nightforce comp. I and another another F Class shooter who looked through it were surprised. The glass on the Trigicon seems a bit better than that of the Nightforce. It is brighter anyway. Both scopes have good color, good resolving power, decent edge to edge sharpness, usable power ranges and nice controls. The reticle in the Nightforce is thinner but the reticle in the Trigicon is not large enough to block the x-ring of the target. I like both but the Trigicon has a street price $500 less than the Nightforce. Hopefully I'll find the time to do a more detailed comparison review in the future.

I just ordered this scope and not sure which rifle to put it on? Do I put it on my Vudoo 22 or my Rem 700 .308 F-TR? The .308 now has a Vortex Golden Eagle on it now. Do I move the GE to the Vudoo and the the Tenmile on my F-TR. Has anybody shoot the Trijicon in F-TR?

Very nice to have such decisions to make. The variables and opportunities make this a truly great sport. I used to get a class all zeroed and confident to the point their heads were swollen then i had them take their scopes off and pass to the right (military and all were the same) so they would have to figure it out and re-zero. Almost all wanted to “keep” the one they had and change serial numbers...nope, tomorrow they get theirs back to re-zero again. The point is...use it on both, use it on whatever you want to do well with and don’t worry about it.

I have the Delta Striker HD Gen 2 4.5-30x56mm The Trijicon Accupower 5-50x56mm and Athlon Cronus BTR . To my 63 year old correction eyes ( Wear glasses) I think the Delta is slightly better glass, The Athlon is slightly warmer than the Trijicon . The center dot in the Delta is dang small, its going to take some getting use to .

Any more details on this now that you have had a while? FOpen scopes above 35X are hard to find and very expensive

Still pretty much of the same opinion I formed originally. Used both extensively and I can switch back and forth easily. Some would not like the thicker reticle on the Trijicon but I've used it at 600 and 1000 and do not have issue with it. The Trijicon is heavier as well. I consider both them to be top notch optics and would be hard pressed to say which I prefer.

I took a chance on the Trijicon 5-50 last winter for a 22 Creedmoor build. At only $500 less than a Nightforce, I was a bit apprehensive. When I got it mounted and saw how it tracked during a 100yd sight in I was relieved.
The glass is clear and mine tracks well. I shoot an informal steel match and dial from 200 to over 1000 yards and several different yardages between. it runs pretty dang close to what my kestrel says.
keep in mind, I’m not a great shooter, so when I loose, I don’t feel it’s the scopes fault, lol.
