I wanted to see if they could live up to this expectation once I had one in hand.

Basically, the Hardline Pro series is geared towards the long-range and tactical shooter.

It seemed to be a very high-quality, well-put-together optic.

By the way, the size of wrench for the turrets and zero stop is a 1.5mm hex wrench.

The turrets on this Hardline Pro are audible and very tactile.

The click feel is sharp, and they dont click as much as they snap.

Honestly, Ive used scopes that cost twice as much that didnt have turrets that felt this good.

I noted that while I was viewing white steel targets against the berm, they were sharp and well-defined.

But I was quite satisfied with the resolution in the Hardline Pro.

Of course, if a scope cant track accurately and consistently though, its pretty much useless to me.

One of these is the parallax knob numbering.

Even though its a soft click, that doesnt mean its not functional.

As mentioned earlier, tracking and return to zero were perfect.

The above shouldnt be taken as criticisms, just observations that I made about this scope in particular.

Its a sleeper hit in my opinion because its a simple design thats also versatile.

I think this is what will make it appealing for a variety of shooters.

It also wont break the bank, with an MSRP of $859.99.

Im sold on it!
