Others Vector optics quality question

[Blam62]

@Blam62 I looked it up. Very nice looking rifle. Best thing I can tell you that I learned when it comes to scope shopping is it’s good to read what others have to say, but they don’t have your eyes. I bought a decent amount of scopes based upon my reading of what others had to say. A lot of those scopes I don’t even use. I tend to listen more to what people have to say who shoot how I like to shoot and shoot similar types of guns. Once I learned how to evaluate a scope for my purposes I stopped placing so much stock in what many folks on forums had to say. If you own a Steyr, you may already know more than I did at the point you’re at now, but just thought i’d share if it might save you a few bucks and some space.

Thanks for the input. Much appreciated

@Blam62 No problem. Hope some of what’s in this thread helps.

If you are limited in your budget for scopes and want something that almost everyone raves about, get an Arken. I have six of them of various models and can't fault any of them. My friend has a Vector Optics and I'm not impressed to say the least. Athlon and Sightron are excellent scopes as well.

Yaaaa.... Just don't know when they don't put the warranty info up front and easy to find/ read.

Like here nothing on product then no menue links to go see .. a mystery I guess..

I've had three Veyron scopes, the first a 3-12X, whIch i still have and it's a great little scope. So good, in fact, it remains on my Katran. It tracks amazingly well, right up there with SWFA Sniper scopes, and is as clear as a bell. I tried every scope test I can think of on this scope, box test, resolution etc and it comes out fantastic.
I ordered a second one and it was not as clear, so I returned it, and bought a Veyron 10X. I haven't yet got confidence in it yet, but haven't put it though the paces yet, so the jury is still out on it.

Well lifetime warranty and hold up to hammering on a springer is key to me ..

Of it's robist to do that on a springer it should be good on anything else ... For it's life.. lol

I own both Vector Optics and Athlons. I find they are both very good scopes. Both have very good warranties; it seems the more money toward Vector the better warranty. But they've got very good glass. Like another person stated, once I get zero I don't dial in anymore. But they do have solid clicks. This one is my latest order:

A nice step up from the Veyron is the Optisan CP.

If the company cannot answer the springer related question, apparently they are NOT knowledgeable enough about springers, or they have a product no longer worthy of my consideration. l like to have scopes for both PCP and my springers, and I consider that a part of my reasons to buy. I cannot afford to just have scopes that only are adequate for PCPs.

They sent me an email not too long ago about choosing a scope for spring piston Airguns but I must’ve deleted it.

If you go to their website and type in “air rifle scope” several options will appear and in their description show as a “break barrel air rifle scope” and simply air rifle scope.

Right now, they are offering 10% off in conjunction with the SHOT show now in 2026 it’s in addition to any sale price, but you do need the code .

Let the savings go to the BOLD
