Mostly where the Africans live.
You think that's what ALL of Africa looks like?
Does all of America look like this?

It took the US some time to recover from that huge sucker punch we received at Pearl Harbor and be technologically up to par with Imperial Japan and the Third Reich. Prior to Pearl Harbor, we had been WAY behind Japan and Germany technologically. At one point both of the Axis giants were enriching uranium fuel for future weapon development while we were still just carrying out university experiments with fissionables. The Mitsubishi Zero had been the apex fighter craft for a few years until we shot one down over Alaska in 1943 with great difficulty. That Zero crashed into the snow and was relatively undamaged, the US pilot managing to get a great lead on the enemy plane and hit it with a burst that mainly shredded the cockpit and Swiss-cheesing the occupant. From that one Zero, Northrop-Grumman reverse engineered the thing and produced the F6F Hellcat which surpassed the Zero in speed and maneuverability. From 1943 onward it was a direct straight line uphill climb for us. All of the top secret Tier 1 tech agencies like the Skunk Works and JPL, the holy of holies throughout the intense moments of the Cold War right up to this day, started during this time whose original missions were to capture and reverse engineer Axis tech.
I just bought three of these with the German #4 reticle and like them very much.Thanks Stan!! Good find. This optic will be included in the T&E.

Need more of her please.
It appears Steiner uses a reticle calibrated to 556 NATO 62gr and 7.62 NATO 175gr projectiles. That won't work. Thanks.The Razor has been so good for so long that it can almost seem like no one has really bothered making anything worth mentioning to take a run at it.
If you’re open to loosening your parameters a bit, the good ol’ Steiner P4Xi 1-4 is still the next best thing to the Razor IMHO even after all these years (maybe better for some since it’s lighter and cheaper), true 1X, nuclear dot, simple reticle:

As others have mentioned, the Razor 1-6 GenII is still a super star.No budget to work within.
By BDC, I'm referring to reticles with stadia marks based on a specific cartridge. A definite no go.
I'd rather have the stadia evenly disturbed. Example, every 5 moa or 2 moa.
The dials don't need to be exposed. Using holdovers is preferred.
I haven't heard much good regarding the Sig Tango. While the extreme opposite is true of the Vortex Razor.
I'm just surprised that the options are so few.
I'm interested in LPVO options that fit the following criteria:
Second focal
MOA dials
MOA reticle (no bullet drop compensation setups)
Illuminated reticle
I've found the Vortex Razor HD 1-6 and Sig Tango 6T 1-6. Any others I've missed?
Appreciate the help!
Optics will sit on 13.5" Tier 1 JP15LE rifles.What you putting it on and use? I have had Razors for about 12 years now on my ARs and it’s a great optic in your specs. Used it for a few years in 3 gun and more for just fun range use. Been tossed in many barrels at matches and no issues so I know it’s tough but if there was and I slammed it into something harder than I should or drop it then I know I am covered which is great also.
