Vortex 5-25x56 Strike Eagle Torture Test

Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 gets put thru the ringer at 50 yards .This is the second Strike Eagle by Vortex that I’ve reviewed . The 5-25 in my opinion is average to below average scope buy .

Your honesty and humor and information is what makes you the best optic reviewer on KZbin.

[@TherealBartcephus]

I’d like to see you test one of the discovery optics 5-30x56 gen 2 scopes. If it holds up to you then maybe I can trust what the other reviewers said about it lol

[@wimstraetmans1890]

Indeed, review this one 🤞

[@eodninja6]

I bought one of these for my RPR in 6.5CM . Then I discovered ARKEN thanks to you.

[@randydickinson4864]

Love when stuff improves by company hearing reviews.

[@ronaldbenskin493]

You hit the jackpot with that rifle!

[@xtremearmor]

Dang, that rifle is a tack driver. The scope police was checking on you 😂. Great video!

[@ChristianGrest]

Great to see Vortex starting to treat you right. Thanks as always!

[@narutobroken]

Please test the Razor series

[@JoefromSoCal]

Great vid Joe. I really enjoy your reviews. Glad I subscribed.

[@robertmirabilio5940]

You're a pisser. I so enjoy your reviews and all the no bullshit presentation. Bought a Blackhound FFP based on your review and is the best scope I've ever used.

[@thegunviking]

I really enjoy your videos! You always make good entertainment!

[@dennisholle1005]

Nice work. Another great review! That was a very kind way to say this scope isn't worth a shit if you try to use it on either end of the magnification spectrum.

[@Sagittariustoo]

Joe, your rifle's so accurate that it still shoots good with a Vortex. 🙂

[@willtrax71]

I subscribed to this Channel to see Optics take a beating with Anal Beads and I haven’t been disappointed… Joe your Reviews are top tier my friend thank you. Semper Fidelis

[@lyndonhamby7432]

Sup Big Joe. Asking Santa Clause for a Rim-X. That is a total baddass 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@sammartinez8084]

Joe🎉 your show is amazing and the best 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@fredshebester-wg4vb]

Well, you beat the crap out of it and it didn't let you down this time. Hope it continues.

[@BROTUNED]

Poe lease lol! That’s awesome Joe cheers buddy love the videos

[@williamwilson2624]

I'm starting to feel like I'm living in an alternate universe where you don't rip on Vortex. Great review, Joe!

[@MrPiimpslap]

He doesn't hate all Vortex products, he says the really cheap end and the high-end are good, but the middle of their line up is junk.

[@carlosugarte1450]

I had a Diamondback 6-24×50. Maybe the only one acceptable for the price. Gone now, just like the Arken scopes I bought, only the EP-5 in their first year was an acceptable scope for the money. In the end, I got what I paid for. I can't expect a rib eye steak when I pay for beans. Good job Joe,

[@AF-O6]

At first I that you were beating the scope with a butt plug, but then I realized it was a flexy tripod.

[@ronws2007]

For some people, that is the same thing. You are welcome, internet.

[@tombouldin8403]

Tell us more about the rifle you are shooting. It looks good.

[@kriswarren6202]

The Vortex S.E. is the only scope I have ever owned that I physically saw the turret move backwards several clicks after a dope adjustment. The lpvo version fell apart the second day on the range as the rear focus came unscrewed and dropped a ring. My girlfriend has an lpvo on an AR 10 and it's been very reliable. 2 out of three worked. I personally cannot use Vortex.

[@jdmbraceyourself9860]

Great video Cyclops

[@user-je5fg8mh4h]

Mine was a POS didn’t even mount it, after a few min looking thru it. Sold it off to a fan boy. I buy on quality not brand according to my specific need

[@narutobroken]

Test Razors please

[@AffordableAirguns]

For the next video I’m gonna send you a 24 ounce Construction hammer so you can beat the hell out of it 🤣🤣🤣 good scope.

[@tommykawasaki9676]

I’m not even gonna start with the Vortexes. Cuz you know how I get.

[@ElkoCowboy888]

I can't imagine what it would be like to have a few drinks with him and where the conversation might go 😃😛🤣

[@daveberry3853]

I’m from Vermont and I’ll stick with Cabot.LOL

[@markcerajewski5709]

I got rid of my Strike Eagle ….. would not hold zero

[@user-jk3jw3pw4n]

Joe where did you get your Tier-One FTR at!

[@louiswolff9382]

I got spoiled once I got my NightForce NX8 2.5-20, I just cant spend my money on lower end scopes anymore, I’d rather have to save up for a year to get a $2K-3k high quality ED glassed true daylight bright optic that maintains crystal clear edge to edge and the other features they come with then to buy 4-5 low end optics hoping to just get one decent out of the bunch, and with this one like you pointed there’s no rotation indicator to know if your on the second or third rotation without having to dial all the way back to your zero stop if this one even has at least that feature, I understand some guys never shoot more then maybe 200-300yds so they can just use hold overs and Kentucky windage to get that deer or hog etc… and as long as it maintains zero somewhat decently this is a good option although a large and heavy one to be lugging for distance through various terrain and that’s great for them, but if your taking 7-8-900 yd shots this ain’t the scope for that, the Razor is a good line from Vortex although for the $$ it is arguable you could get better for same money, the Gen 2 Razors for the money now that Gen 3 is out are hard to beat for the now lowered $$ you can find em at, anyway good vid and always love your commentary during them 😂, be good brother until next time 🙏🏻

[@georgiegross3322]

U have a similar problem …. I got a sworo z3 for dirt cheap know I can’t stand looking three cheaper scopes

[@davidbezuidenhout5939]

Can you please test/review the new Bushnell Elite 4500 2.5-10x40 Multi x - everybody say it is very good quality and value for money (with 4.4 eye relief for heavy hitting calibers).

[@kee7339]

Mr. Cyclops , your Bipod Left leg almost slipped of the table, not very safe would you think ? Keep an eye on that please

[@garygates5679]

LOVE YOUR KRAZY "" A N T I C S "" .... !!!!!!! I THINK JOSH HAS A CRUSH ON YOU .... !!!!!!!! {{{ L M A O }}} ... !!!!!!!😂

[@djhaack9239]

What are your thoughts on parlex vs. fixed parlex for hunting.

[@WhoCares-su8od]

What's the bipod you're using? Is it a arca rail style mount?

[@1bamabrad1]

I LOVE IT WHEN YOU TALK DIRTY!😂

[@jorgefigueroa7573]

[@user-mq4vo3mk1s]

😂

[@kendallhadden]

What’s your thoughts on that bipod?

[@tmurray1972]

Joe, you ain't getting soft on us are ya?..lol. But yes, test the high end vortex stuff if you can.👊🏻

[@blairbreland1443]

Your potty mouth makes me laugh lol

[@buddyd493]

I like my Strike Eagle and Arken…until I compare it to my Razor or Zeiss.

[@grizzstephens7538]

Joe, how those anger management classes going?

[@perdidocamaronero5400]

If Vortex would offer to give me my money back on that same scope I bought I would jump on it in a heartbeat. I truly believe their cheaper version of this scope is better. What's the only difference, a zero stop? No illumination?

[@jameshoggard7471]

Can you use a big rubber fist to slap the scopes around

[@jdmbraceyourself695]

It happens

[@ezrabrook3993]

Ur gettin'freasky pard, time fer ya'meds Essee😂😂😂😂

[@paulstakun8249]

Vortex is a Wisconsin company and everyone up here thinks anything from Wisconsin is the best. Go in any LGS here and all you find are Vortex scopes. Their cheese sucks too.

[@tx512outdoors]

Why you haten?

[@Snailz5]

Arken LH4!!! Make it a double!

[@kellym3531]

FJB

[@TripleGRogerLait]

Gotta love the Strike Eagle … mine is ace . 👍👍

[@e.l.robbins5614]

Just say NO Joe lol

[@JPUND]

Your bipod is on backwards

[@bob4003]

Once you have reviewed really good scopes. Why go back and review the mediocre. Go on to the higher quality ones and compare them to the best bang for your buck scopes. I’d like to see the tract toric compared to a 3 or 5000.00 scope.

[@locknnload]

THESE ARE GREAT SCOPES FOR 500.00 I HAVE 5 OF THEM

[@dragonrider385]

😎🇺🇸

[@PassionforRifles]

😁That shiet

[@jamesash5792]

That's a $200 scope at best 😂 but $899 there is one born every day 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@KC_2112]

😂 😂 😂 😂

[@Drivapete]

Sooo....below what serial number on the Strike Eagle were pieces of shit? Inquiring minds wanna know!!

[@snowman3219]

I have 2 of these 🤦🏼‍♂️ and they are complete POS compared to any of my Arken.

[@jcjustice3786]

😂😂😂👋👋🤝

[@garyjohns4711]

Dude you have lost your mind somewear

[@charlesking8542]

Uh, vortex suxxxx. End of story.

[@civilguardk9llc551]

Mind shoots fine at 1000 yds. On a 6.5 Creedmoor. Didn't have to spend $1,000s and actually out shot a 5,000 scope and rifle.

[@SlowhandDK33]

Therese test Are so stupid - if the score chance zero With That gentle behavior i would be really surprised 😂😂 6:37

[@Daywalkerbmz1188]

😂nope. def don't need 25x to shoot good groups at 50yrds. I have shot just as good or better groups with a 9x on a stock 10/22 carbine as a 30x on a cz455 varmint with 1 lbs trigger. we all know how terrible the triggers are on stock carbines lol.

[@jorgefigueroa7573]
