Why These 3 AR15 Scopes Are Awesome

[@nutnfancy]

Thanks for coming out to the video! This or course is thanks to my donors who make this expensive process possible, fully independent reviews: www.patreon.com/Nutnfancy You can also donate to the TNP independence with PayPal also, above. Here’s some of TNPP comments on this video! "Todd Strelka Great video. I love my Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24mm Rifle Scope. 3 6d The Nutnfancy Project Dude YOU turned me on the Strike Eagle, thanks! 1 6d Cheesewell I needed this! Thank you! 1 6d The Nutnfancy Project You know it brother 1 6d Aaron Carrington For a very affordable long range scope I’d recommend the Arken SH-4 34mm 6-24x50. Their scope rings and mount are very robust and durable as well. 1 6d The Nutnfancy Project Sounds good, maybe long range scope stuff later 6d Joshua Keeler Hey. Thank you for your great attitude. You are consistent. I appreciate that in you. 6d EthanRX Love it, thanks Nutn. I recently got in the new Primary Arms 3x micro prism and it has been awesome. Very small and lightweight. 2 6d Anthony Sias II I got mine too, haven't got a chance to shoot it yet 5d Jon Bartholomew Another one of your "tiered" optic videos would be great. Updated of course with newer optics brands/models. I'm still running the Leupold VX-R based on your last recommendation. I'm certainly not a glass snob, but these 3 are all low tier non quality optics. I personally wouldn't run them on a rifle defending myself or my family. Introducing and reviewing some quality optics would be much appreciated if you ever get around to it. Thank you for all your work. 2 6d Jayson Fraser I recently (finally) got my first optic after saving for a while and practicing with irons. I was debating between an LPVO and a prism (like the primary arms micro prisms), and within LPVOs I debated between the Strike Eagle and similar Primary Arms optics. I decided on the Primary Arms 1-6x FFP with the ACSS Raptor reticle. I just mounted and zeroed it the other day, but haven’t gotten to play with it much yet, but so far I love it. The reticle was the deciding factor over the Vortex. Plus the FFP functionality (while not a deal breaker for me in that magnification range) seems like it’ll make certain medium range applications easier. If I had known about that swampfox though, it would have at least been in consideration. 1 6d Gilberto Esquivel Yes, Yes, and Yes...The glass ain't terrific on the PA's but they're good enough; and damn it if you can't ring steel consistently up to 300 yards with these scopes! They remind of of ACOG's in terms of ruggedness (like on land only) except they run batteries.. 1 5d Anthony I have the Swampfox Arrowhead 1-10 LPVO on a Savage Model 10 in 308 and I love it, great scope! 6d Jamie Ayers Check out the Swampfox website. They give really nice discounts to LEO’s and military active and vets. They make affordable pistol optics and often have flash sales. 5d Brad Fegan Thanks for the review appreciate it👍👍 5d Gilberto Esquivel After I watched Flannel Daddy beat the F^%$ out of one mounted on a SCAR and give it a thumbs up after it didn't fail to get rounds on target....I settled on the Chi-Com built PA 1-6x with ACSS Reticle. These little tanks are effective and rugged for the money...you can hand a few of those babies out to your buddies running without glass to help them get rounds on target WITHOUT BREAKING YOUR BANK...for when the music stops...Hell if they die, just peel it out of their hands and give it to someone else...its gonna keep working! 5d Whippersnapper Nutn, the family has been out of town this week, so I have been binging GRVs and hanging out with you and TD. Thanks for all the good times and info. Glad I can't smell the farts through the screen...Maybe move the bean storage out of the bunker if you can't control yourself? Been watching since I was 18. Now 32. Just bought me a Ruger American in .270 last week off your review. Got 4 kids now, oldest is 7. He's on track for a cricket .22 next year😉. Rock on sir. 1 5d The Nutnfancy Project I will continue to rock on and glad to hear about the binge watching; that's fun. TD's fun to have, I always try to get him to be in more vids. That Ruger American is a great gun, I like a lot. .270 is legit too. You kids will love their Cricket too; glad to help 1 5d Jonathan-James Always enjoy the vids, very fun and informative. Very much appreciate the work, enthusiasm and consistency. Thanks Nutn. 1 5d The Nutnfancy Project Thank you much JJ and you bet. The foundation of TNP is solid and true with some new add ons, fun surprises here and there. But I want the product to be consistent for ya'll; really important in our clown world of change. Come here to relax ;-) 1 5d Matthew Sinn I use the OpMod Strike Eagle 1-6 on my KelTec RDB Survival, in an AeroPrecision mount. Absolutely love it, highly recommended. The only thing I would change is for the illumination dial to have “off” positions between each brightness level. 1 5d The Nutnfancy Project Yep that would be nice; you chose well. That OpMod is an incredible value. 1 5d Boxed1n I have the illuminated 1-8 swampfox on my Aero M5 in 308. The glass quality has been great and the illumination works with my astigmatism. (Some illuminated scopes bloom bad with my vision). Side note Eotechs look like crawley blood worms with my eyesight too. Not the same optic well aware but still very weird. 2 5d The Nutnfancy Project Good input on the Swampfox; glad it has worked with your eye situation. It's a great scope and I love mine. 1 5d Load reply Gabriel Duran Tryout the atibal mirage x8 , it's got clear glass reticle is nice 5d Plumber Angelo Great video Nutn! I need to step up my glass game 5d The Nutnfancy Project And you can do it with these w/o going broke, thanks PA 1 5d Cz-Bundy This came at a great time. I just got my lower in and now my thunder ranch aero finished. It's 6 lbs FLAT. 14.5" pinned and welded. Only has irons now and I need a light scope for it. Thanks for everything Nutn !! 5d Hold Fast Joe I got a Leupold hd5 3-15x 30mm illuminated a while back. It's 20oz about same as the swampfox he shot but 2x the cost. The main benefit would be to get ya up to 15x power. 3x on low end is still sufficient for close stuff both eyes open imo. I used a Leupold patrol vxr that's 3 to 9 power before and just wanted that extra zoom. Using the 15x I can make out 22 cal holes at 100 no problem. I can sometimes see the holes at 200 with right color and light. 9x i could see the holes at 100 with the right light and not even close at 200 yard That said I never had trouble connecting with 9x, it was just a want. Plus the vxr didn't have zero reset dials and nutn is dead on, it makes a huge difference. I would put my gear away and take it out a month later not be sure if I left it zero at 300 or 100. With zero reset I always know now. Plus I can spin for 300 yards without needing to count clicks. It's definitely worth it. Swampfox looks like a great bargain or get ya 5x more power for 2x the cost 5d Load reply Jarrad Walsh Hey Nutn! What are those things you have over your motorcycle grips? I have never seen them before! 5d Jordan Parker Swampfox Arrowhead looks like a contender for my next LPVO 5d Lee Harrell Been wondering about Swampfox. Thank you for the review! 5d BadgerTails Love my 950 ADV and all the guns we shoot. Drive on! 5d Michael McAtee I’m really digging my primary arms 1-6 with acss. Great scope, great reticle, fair price. Great vid as always nutn! 5d Shadeslinger Always love seeing optic vids. Thanks for the info! 5d Andrettski I put my first Swampfox product the 'Liberator'(green ret.) on my AR9 pistol and really like it. Huge Vortex and Holosun guy but Vortex doesn't make much with green reticles. I think green pops so much better than red and I think it's time these optics co's move more in that direction. Green means 'GO' and it's Go Time. 5d Natraswift Monstrum G3 1-6 FFP FDE $220 5d Nathan Simms aka Darkpriest I have the holosun 503C on my 10,5 pistol and the vortex strike eagle 1-8 on my best AR 15 ever build. Love them both. 5d Downtrodden Suggestion: a yearly optics update from the bunker so new folks to the project aren’t searching through years of videos for something that may no longer be produced. It’s probably tedious to keep up with the market when you haven’t needed to replace optics from over a decade ago. 2 5d Paul Kwiatkowski You are living the dream and that was a great review. 5d Anthony Sias II They just released the Strike Eagle in FFP. I own two of the SFP 1-6 (one gen 1 and one gen 2) and I love them both. Also digging my Primary Arms optics as well. 1 5d Brandon Hutchins Great video! I enjoyed the solo video. Beautiful location! I thank God for you Nutnfancy, your videos always raise my spirits and faith. 4d david rockwell The Swapfox 1-10x optic certainly appears to be a great choice for a working man's liberty rifle. If one is not shooting their liberty rifle every weekend in competition, an inexpensive magnified optic is a must have over iron sights. Unfortunately, age related presbyopia plays a factor for most patriots. Thank you for the continued effort and dedication. 4d Jerome J The barricade/motorcycle type of review is just my favorite I have to say. Nutn' is laser focused in the field. 4d Jerome J the desert is so nice and green in the spring. 4d Harold Galen McPheron Fantastic review... 1 4d Jody Whitaker Nice info on some scopes. I'm liking the price on that Sousa and it's great to see the swampfox in a review. I recently paired a Arrowhead with my M&P10 and am loving it so far. Been considering adding a swampfox tomahawk for one of my M&P15s for a good all around rifle set up. Thanks for the work you put in over all these years and the great info"

[@greatlakestrout]

Bought the Swampfox months ago. I got the gorilla dot bdc in green. Yes green! Far better than red in my opinion. Had the Vortex Razor HD 1X10 came in green, I would have bought it. Price doesn't matter on this gun. I'm excited to try it at 600 yards on a AR style 308. My Leupold Mark AR Mod 1 was only good out to 300ish. Weather has been bad here for zeroing.

Oh they did have a video about 1x10 ffp 34mm called the swamp donkey. It was suppose to release 2 years ago but never did

[@sirdanoman]

That exact SwampFox is on my AeroPrecision AR10 I use for elk hunting. It went through HELL last fall: sleet, snow, below freezing temps for 2 weeks and is unfazed. I have their red dots on my AKs, Vepr12 and will never go back. The quality, price point, and customer service is phenomenal.

[@TineEdong]

I hate the terrible look on the outside of the glass. All I hear is oh just look in the middle but that requires movement of the riffle not your eyes. I didn't like my SF and sticking with Trijicon. For me personally, not saying you made a bad choice, I am sticking with Trijicon and that's it.

Thanks Nutn. I've had the very rare opportunity to shoot my AR recently. In a year I shoot 500 rounds through it. But I do dry fire practice quite a bit. The recent shoot was out to 300. Man. I run a red dot on my rifle. While I did good. It was slow. This video gave me some options to look at for LPVOs.

[@SurvivaLust]

nice to see a few options being previewed here that are more budget oriented. Great job. For aging eyes you need a scope.

[@bigmike716]

The Swampfox is a great LPVO except for the reticle. I bought the MOA version and didn't care for the reticle. I sold it and got the Vortex PST gen2, mainly for the daylight bright reticle. Also, the glass is on a whole different level from the Swampfox. And the price was a difference of $40. The PST is a beast.

[@NeuRekrut]

I’m so happy when I get to wake up on a Saturday, but I see you uploaded a new video. Makes my day so much better!

[@coldfront7914]

FFP has its place.... but not in LPVOs IMO. FFP is excellent for long range. Great video Nutn

[@BringerOfD]

I disagree. With a good reticle I like FFP on everything. Particularly an LPVO with BDC I think FFP is a must.

[@coldfront7914]

@@BringerOfD isn't it great that we're all allowed to have our own opinions? What works for one may not work for another.

[@Elias-ur5tp]

Just my .02. FFP is absolutely critical on an lpvo, the ability to use speed drop, mil targets, use quick wind and have accurate sub tensions throughout are all predicated on an FFP scope. Imo an lpvo without a FFP mil reticle doesn't make sense

[@duroisgawd]

I'm hooked on primary arms glass. The primary arms reticles are the best out there in my opinion. The glass on my Primary arms optics is exceptional. Granted the models I'm talking about are a bit more expensive than any strike eagle. Also FFP is my jam.

[@Brimwald]

I agree about the reticle and their high end optics. The budget LPVO is just ok, I'll take a Burris RT6 over it. Their prisms are excellent if you havent tried them, especially the new 1x

I just bought a Trijicon Credo 1- 6 in SFP with a retile illuminated in RED, and love it! It's daylight bright and have no problem seeing it in full sun. I like it so much I ordered another one! It's 18oz, and glass is excellent. I used to have a PA but this scope is about as close to 1X as I've ever looked through. They also come with a screw in throw on the ring, and scope caps. I got it for $7-800 with OPs discount sale right now. I own 2 NF & 3 Vortex all costing 1K-2100 so when i say Trijicon is a keeper, I'm not blowing smoke. 😂

[@MARINERMAYNE]

Have you considered the wwsd rifle when Sawc are in play. You could have those set ups for under 6lbs

[@calangel]

Just got finished looking through the Vortex 1-10 LPVO and I know why a FFP is actually awesome on a LPVO. It turns the illuminated portion into a literal dot at 1x, and gives you a BDC at 10x. I still prefer a SFP on a hunting scope and the firedot from Leupold is the best implementation of illumination on a hunting scope.

[@jimjones516]

It’s really good I love the Swampfox line of optics. I have (3) 1-10 arrowheads and a 1-8 arrowhead. You can often get up to 15% off by using affiliate codes and they usually run the same 15% off deals around the holidays. I also have a 25% off LEO discount. Now for the scopes. -Greater field of view than others in their price/class. -No chromatic aberration -You already mentioned locking turrets, resetting your zero, throw lever. -Generous eye relief/box at one power and adequate at 10 power -50,000 round warranty which equates to a lifetime warranty no questions asked. And their customer service is fantastic as I’ve used it.

[@stevewhite4392]

Have 2 of the Swampfoxes on some SPR style AR-15s. SF has huge discounts for MIL/LEO that make them even more attractive. As an ever higher end, but still inexpensive option, look at the Athlon Helos BTR G2 1-10x28. Quite a bit brighter view than the SF and still only 18.2oz. Only downside is a 34mm tube that makes mounts harder to choose.

[@dougrippe33]

Their MIL/LEO discounts are insane!! I got my 1-6 Arrowhead for $167 shipped to my door, in 2 days, and I am thoroughly impressed. Will run this thing till it breaks and save up for a better one. Only thing I’m upset about is that I didn’t get the 1-8 or 1-10 and I only got one.

[@alexduke5402]

I've had a primary arms 1-6 acss raptor then upgraded to the 1-8 the cheap versions of it. It has a bit of fisheye on low magnification but not really that bad. Really good bang for buck. I'm hard on guns they get tossed in the tractor beat around in the truck and it's held 0 it has this farmers stamp of approval!

[@paganprepper13]

Those spots between the numbers on the Arrowhead illumination are actually off spots. Absolutely love mine (exactly the same as yours), and I agree with everything you said about it! The owners of Swampfox also said they sent some out with SFOD-A 7th for their SCAR 17's, and got rave reviews from the operators that used them. One hell of an endorsement!

[@acem82]

I got 2 Primary Arms SLx scopes with "tactical" style reticles, 1-6 at about 18 oz. I just had a heck of a time quickly locating the aiming point. I switched them out for a 15 year old Leupold VX-1 2-7 with a BDC reticle. Now, on a real cross hair, I can locate the aiming point immediately. Oh, it also weighs less than 10 oz. Now, you could say my slowness finding the aiming point is a training issue, and you'd be sort of correct. The issue is I have a dozen scopes with normal cross hairs and training on another thing made no sense to me. So, I'll happily keep the cross hair.

[@grunt1807]

I agree, the original PA ACSS reticle is a little busy but the newer ACSS-Raptor reticle is awesome. It removes the left and right range finders and uses a chevron instead of the 2 mil-dot. I've grown to prefer it.

[@Magilla_Gorilla7.62x39]

To be clear I like many vortex products, I have owned, mounted and sold many scopes 200+. I don’t like the strike eagle. A turret broke off and getting a really good zero was just not going to happen, I think the reticle was just not fine enough. Also busy. I did kill 5 beavers with it though. In low light over the course of a year. It was challenging to get a good reference for height over bore for closer specific shots. Lastly the turret broke after a year of hunting with it. I returned it to vortex and in a week I had a new scope. That was really cool. I ended up selling the scope and going with the vortex razor 1-6 gen 2 E mrad instead. So far no problems. And I prefer to have a 36 yard zero with a dope card anyways. That’s my experience with the strike eagle 2/5 overall. Not tough and certainly not something to rely your life on. Btw if you have a rifle system that you can’t rely on. Instead of just buying toys, buy gun stuff that are fun but also you can find trustworthy.

Ive had an arrowhead 1-8 mounted with an aero ultralight for over a year now. Its a great scope, clear glass, good size and weight and it holds zero. I got the 1-8 since the moa marks are only accurate at full zoom and i prefer the more forgiving eye box of 8x as apposed to 10x on a sporting rifle.

Awesome video, for some reason lately KZbin has been wanting to not show your videos in my feed. Been watching you for many many years, the first video I saw of you you were training your dog in the backyard, not sure if it was Allie or a dog before it. Miss Allie the mountain dog. Live outside an airbase and the globemasters and the new 767’s that replaces the KC135’s fly over the house all day everyday. Do you get to fly some still? On the East coast retired pilots still get to go fly, my Buddy is retired F-15 colonel and now he flys globemasters on the side when they need help he said they pay a lot per flight, something to look into. Have fun and stay safe.

@Nutnfancy I'm assuming this is a scam account

[@jtaylorb88]

Love my HD that's stupid expensive but the new primary arms while not cheap at 1,800 the field of view is incredible! Only downside is the reticle isn't daytime bright.

[@ValentinoRossFan46]

What muzzle device is on that rifle?

[@beagon6420]

Awesome. You're the best, Nutn!

[@ValentinoRossFan46]

Just picked up the sousa for 100 bucks off botach . Currently on sale

[@josephberndt6907]

Great content. Thanks for sharing

[@thelemmingtrain7974]

Hi Nutn'! Newish viewer and I just had a noobish question. Would you recommend any of these optics for an M1A? I watched through one of your previous videos on the M1A already but I can't recall anything being mentioned on a "medium"/close range optic. I really appreciate any feedback and stay classy!

[@nicholas1740]

I ordered two Warne QD MSR mounts for both my Trijicons because, if your going to run BUIS and they aren't canted or you can't QD your glass, then why have BUIS?

[@bva8252]

nice timing. shopping for a qr tank bag for my new 890 adventure myself! yours looks like if fits perfectly. do you mind sharing the make and model of the tank bag?

[@marvinbrock960]

The 1-6 PST for the same price is 2x-3x the optic of the Assault chicken… made in Japan or Philippines vs SE made in China.. glass isn’t even comparable. The PST has a true daylight illuminated red dot 🔴 check it out…

[@jonathanrogers9961]

Sad to see you didn't have the primary arms 1-6 o 1-8 in your lineup. FFP for a great price with a good reticle.

[@MrStargazer450]

Hey Nutn love the videos. GSM Outdoors has acquired Cold Steel. : / I have the large Espada and the screw that holds the thumb ramp, snapped in two. I tried emailing GSM Outdoors about my issue and they said they do not have a repair shop or do any repairs on Cold Steel knives. Sad that Cold Steel was sold off. Surprised not many people are talking about it.

[@patrickkasper2776]

Awesome review value added to my tool box. How about your pack out with rifles on the KTM going to the range.

[@emt1581]

Just bought a klx230 yesterday and I'm wondering how you are managing to carry THREE AR's on a KTM?!? Been a double owl since your first knife vid. Keep up the awesome work!

[@ivaniuk123]

Off the subject but did anyone else have issues with Lancer mags below 32F in snow. 5 years ago I used some Lancer mags at those low temperatures and the springs bund up in such a way that the rounds could just fall out. This wasn't just one or two mags this was 7 mags. The 1st gen Magpul mags did just fine.

[@SedriqMiers]

Legend returns, peace.

[@garyjohns4711]

Swamp Fox mount is very good also....

[@captureoutdoormedia]

I’m surprised the Strike Eagle gets your nod of approval. 24+/- oz for the scope and mount? I’m sure they’re nice, but don’t seem very SAWC compliant. Especially when Leupolds low end LPVO is half a pound lighter

[@Largepapa2]

Check out the new sig and the primary arms. I think those are the ones

[@michaelmusko989]

Your AR build is so awesome, did you do a video on it ? I would love to build something like it . I have the Swampfox Arrowhead 1X10 . The same scope that you have in this video. It’s a great scope, very clear glass all the latest options. I also have a Leupold VX-5HD 30 mm - Side Focus FireDot Duplex 3X15X56 with the CDS-ZL 2 It is a $1500.00 scope and my next best scope is the Swampfox Arrowhead 1x10 if you compare the scopes the Swampfox stands up for itself. It’s not a Leupold but for the price I would definitely buy the Swampfox. I’ve been thinking about getting one for my sons AR.

[@hampstershat123]

Is that a geissele charging handle? Pretty sure it is. I have one it's good but it's slippery with wet hands. Gloves or dry hands it's all good.

[@mpwmu9041]

Great stuff per usual.

[@donniesmith2430]

What's your AFSC

[@2Aknight762]

Atibal 1-10 is an excellent mid priced scope. SFP model has the X-mas tree reticle. Put mine atop a POF Revolution DI .308, sick rifle set up.

[@cole3078]

The 1-8 strike eagles are pretty good for the money but do distort around the edges at 8x magnification. The 1x setting isn’t a true 1x either. I had one on my 16” Aero M5 .308 but if I had to do it again, I’d save up another $100 or so and buy the 1-6x24 Gen 2 Viper PST which can be found easily for $500 and you won’t find a better LPVO anywhere for that price. Period.

[@bobwampler3387]

Have you had any issues with your KTM 890?

[@unidentifiedbiomass4106]

If your dabbling in value scopes the Burris RT6 is floating around out there

[@BlackdogADV]

I have a Husqvarna 701, I’m also an elite tactical sniper. How do you pack 2 16” ARs on your bike?

[@markchalloner5883]

I was wondering the same. I run a Mosko Moto Reckless 80, on my T7 and a two rifle case fits nicely crossways under the beaver tail. I haven't tried it offroad yet though.
