Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 3-15x44 FFP MRAD

Discover the Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 3-15x44 FFP MRAD, a versatile riflescope engineered to give you an unfair advantage in every firefight, from tight CQB to precise long-range shots. This updated favorite keeps you ahead with thoughtful design, rugged construction, and a reticle that blends clarity with intuitive hold points. The result is a scope that stays in the background while your aim stays front and center, ensuring you can focus on the shot rather than chasing the reticle.

The illumination dial is cleanly integrated into the side focus adjustment knob for easy access and streamlined performance. This thoughtful placement means you can adjust illumination and range-finding without breaking your sight picture, preserving situational awareness in dynamic environments. With ten illumination levels and an off position between each, you can quickly return to your preferred brightness after a low-light transition, minimizing downtime and keeping you on target when timing matters most.

The EBR-2C RETICLE (MRAD) is a hash-marked reticle using MRAD subtension lines and floating wind hold dots for ranging, holdover, and windage corrections. This second focal plane (SFP) reticle maintains the same apparent size across magnification, so you don’t have to re-sight with changing power. The subtensions remain accurate at high magnification, giving you reliable ranging and holdover estimates at a glance. The reticle is glass-etched and protected between two layers of glass for durability, and the illuminated reticle provides precise aiming under low-light conditions without washing out the reticle in brighter settings.

Optical performance is built on XR Lens Coatings and XD Lens Elements. The XR proprietary anti-reflection coatings boost light transmission across all air-to-glass surfaces, delivering brighter, clearer images in dawn, dusk, and overcast conditions. XD glass, with its extra-low dispersion properties, enhances resolution, color fidelity, and contrast, so target edges pop with sharpness from edge to edge. This combination results in a bright sight picture with natural color and improved contrast, making it easier to identify hold points, mirage, and wind flags in variable light.

Construction is purpose-built for field reliability. The 30 mm tube provides greater strength and wider adjustment latitude than a 1-inch tube, while the one-piece tube minimizes alignment issues and improves water resistance. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, the Viper PST Gen 2 is designed for durability under fatigue and recoil. It is fully waterproof thanks to O-ring seals, fogproof due to nitrogen filling, and shockproof to withstand the recoil of your preferred rifle platform. The hard anodized finish adds durability and a low-glare matte that helps camouflage your position in the field, while ArmorTek adds an extra layer of protection against scratches, oil, and dirt on exterior lenses.

Tactical style turrets with exposed elevations and windage offer fast, repeatable adjustments that you can trust under pressure. The rugged construction is matched by intelligent internal mechanics designed for repeatability and long-term performance. The internal mechanism features a Radical Zero Stop (RZR) to prevent dialing below the sight-in range, a Precision Force Spring System to ensure consistent erector movement, and the Precision Glide Erector System for smooth magnification changes even in challenging conditions. These features translate to predictable tracking and repeatable accuracy, shot after shot, across the entire zoom range from 3x to 15x.

For quick visual reference, the Radius Bar provides a fiber optic turret rotation indicator, giving you a highly visible point of reference for turret adjustments. This aids in rapid escalation of elevation and windage settings during dynamic scenarios, reducing hesitation and keeping you on target when every millisecond counts. Coupled with US Patent 7,937,879 recognition for its fast and precise zeroing capabilities, the Viper PST Gen 2 stands out as a reliable choice for competition shooters, hunters, and tactical applications alike.
