EOTECH Makes a Premium LPVO | 1-10x Vudu
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2024
- The Vudu 1-10x is basically the best 10x lpvo on the market, by a fairly wide margin.
But is a good LPVO? Meh. Depends.

You and Hop are the GOATs at keeping me from throwing money at things. Keep up the hard work of defending my wallet from me.

They've definitely made me consider what I spend my money on much more throughly
Lost me at $1600, fuck I have none for how good it is, if I can’t afford it it doesn’t matter

Why hasn't this guy been picked up? Perhaps his witty banter and painfully honest reviews. Keep'em coming, keeping companies striving to improve.
Picked up by whom? Leviathan group? 🤢
Why would you even want him to be "picked up". I go to him because he ISN'T an industry shill.
Because he doesn't wanna be a sellout. Check the video about guntuber reviewers bias.
@@ReubenPastrami the value comes from their putting hours of use into many articles of gear and being able to give an informed evaluation of their utility and compatibility with other gear. These are things that take a long time and a lot of money for an individual to learn, and the viewership benefits from this by not having to spend thousands and thousands of their own hours, dollars and rounds learning it themselves. Please stop being gay for SF
@@ReubenPastrami that's literally a lot of people on the guntuber community...if good videography is you shooting a gun with a still or moving camera, that ain't much especially when reviewing a gun a massive percentage of the market isn't gonna be using for combat but really hitting paper and steel. Irons red dot, holographic, lpvo, is just a flavor for what you want on your firearm dinner.
This is legit the best review channel in the gun-tuber universe
Thanks for the video. That smooth jazz voice is perfect for this format.
Finally!! The vudu has gracefully got it's just deserves!!! I've come to realize the sweet spot in this lpvo craze is in the 1-6 range. I'm totally happy running a vudu 1-6 ffp sr1. Great content bro!! Been waiting for this review. 🙌 & I've got a new/spare PSL lever for the vudu from trajectory arm's. Would you like it? I don't need 2 of them & that's what I ended up with. Lol
Great video as usual! I appreciate your honest reviews!
Thanks for talking me out of considering this as a LPVO option FOR ME. Seriously! 😁
Great video man. Looking forward to the review you do on that PST
Thanks for the review, I have the Vortex Razor 1-10x on an ADM 308, and I honestly think it belongs there, while the EOtech is a decent offering, after about 2 years with the 1-10x I just love what that thing can do and a daylight bright optic is a must for me in the woods of the upper midwest as I've hunted with it in the last 2 years, plus the reticle from Vortex is nice with that semi transparent dot (which wasn't on the Eotech 1-10 with the MOA reticle I played with at my LGS), now you can tell me its not $1200 dollars nicer and I would agree, but I got my Razor 1-10x for about $1680 with a Veterans/ LEO discount, and for that I would argue puts it over the top. Now if I was going to mount an LPVO on a 5.56 AR, I would look to a 1-6x or possibly 1-8x scope that was much more versatile in all situations
Mmm, mm yes mm, quality content. My soul has been relieved
That Vortex is an _expensive_ boat anchor ($1680 _after_ the LE/Veteran discount... blech). 2.5-10X with an off-set is just a far more viable and well thought out set-up IMO.
@@DB.KOOPERVortex 1-10x is 21.5oz vs 21.3 of the Eotech 1-10x, a 2.5-10x Primary Arms is 22.5 Oz so adding in an offset is even more weight
Vortex razor 1-10 is a great scope. I liked my first one so much that I ended up buying a second one. Paid about $1700 for both.
I bet That ADM in .308 is pure heavenly. Nice setup…. Spendy but really nice 👍
Might be a boring video but it'd be cool to see what y'alls storage solutions are like or what you recommend for a safe for apartment life
Your analogies are gold. I can’t stop laughing. 😂😂😂
Stellar delivery on the warning disclaimer
REKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Great video, been waiting for your views on the eotech.
You get a like just for the rekke comment
The commentary is on point 🤣 good shit
Here I place my offering to the algorithm overlords. Great stuff as always
Brutally honest and to the point review. I'll pass. I'm a sucker for ACSS Reticles anyway. I agree with DIB001 "Why hasn't this guy been picked up? Perhaps his witty banter and painfully honest reviews." LOL! Love the dog...
LOL! I see what you did there with the intro in regard to my comment on your last video. 🤣
Like your reviews. Got the eotech vudu 1-10x SR5. I've run it in timed drills /courses of fire out to distance-- 600yds The eyebox at 10x is fantastic! I run a vltor emod stock and can get behind glass in prone very comfortably as well as on barricades, etc. More forgiving than razor 1-10x but proper cheekweld and rifle setup makes the Razor GTG in terms of eyebox. The 28mm objective, like on the Trijicon credo 1-8FFP, gathers more light and makes it feel like I'm looking through a higher magnification scope. Just 1st hand feedback from an actual owner. I run arisaka 45 offset for a red dot that's zeroed at 50/200 with 75gr bthp. It's a phenomenal lpvo and arguably the best on the market!
I'm quite fond of my Vudu 1-10 as well, but with the LE-5 reticle. It is amazing for the price and the parallax is set at 200 yards versus 100 with the Razor and most other LPVOs allowing a little more forgiveness at longer distances.
@Super61Blackhawk nice dude! Where did you find the 200m parallax info. I'll look at eotech site but dit recall seeing that spec. 200m parallax on an LPVO is great!
@@kiteokoh2652 I agree; I haven't seen it anywhere, but I called their customer service number and asked.
I just purchased a brand new Steiner M8Xi 1-8 LVPO for $1,560. I determined I wanted the best picture possible. Apparently, Steiner revised these long before Sage Dynamics did their video on them. I physically could not find a better scope for that kind of money. I am gonna hold off on any higher magnification optics for now. 8X is good enough. I determined there are downsides with every single scope on the market.
You bought a $4200 scope for $1560? The lowest I could find a new one for was around $2800.
honestly still kicking myself for not getting them on eotech's black friday sale at $1250 honestly competitive at that price
commenting to support this lovely content
I feel like eotech wanted to get into the scope game, but basically tried to ride their holographic sights as the hype. They have all the right components, just seems to fall short where I need it to be. I had the 1-6, and ended up selling it. Settled on the razor 1-6 in the end, but that thing is still heavy as all get out and the reticle is limiting at extended distances for holds. Really been eyeing the PLXc for the weight and what you get from it - for roughly the same price
I just don't see the purpose in going to a 1-10X over my 2.5-10X with an off-set RDS. In my experience it's a LOT faster to transition to the red dot then it is to dial back even a 1-8x LPVO to 1x for up close stuff. I hunt (deer) in the N.Idaho mountains with a 6.5 Grendel AR and I run the same PA 2.5-10x/off-set RDS set-up on that rifle as my main long-gun and I've taken 2 deer that surprised me walking out at ~20 and ~35yds respectively with the off-set red dot. It took more tim eto decide if they were shooters then it did to get on target and let the round go.
Great content mate, love this channel and all the "gear autism" you give us. Keep up the awesome work.
Just saw these optics IRL. They looked good but always like to see someone with some time behind it
I've considered the 1-6 or 1-8 for my 12.5 because the price point is very attractive.
Great video!!!
Thanks for a very comprehensive review. I was considering a 1-10 for a mid range duty on a .308, but I'm not so sure now after your comments about the performance on longer range and the absence of parallax adjustment.
Video liked. Comment posted. Easily my favorite gear review channel.
Good content my guy
Been using this one for a while (with an offset), and I quite like it, though I agree with everything you said in this video. In theory, I'd just change it to a 2-10, but the size/weight difference still makes this one the winner for now.
Random comment for algo’s
Just put a prs lite on my 1-6 gpr. Game changer. Superior cheek weld equals much less scope shadow while on the move.
Commenting for algorithms. May the nova burrito be forever cozy
Oh thank god, I was beginning to think I was secretly a psychopath stroking my rifle as I watch youtube videos.
Came close to an EoTech as I love the Holographic but I found a 1-5x Weaver local and I'm very happy with it. Paid half of what the EoTech is.
NGL, I'm honestly debating getting one of these but in 1-6. I currently have a Tango-6T on one of my 14.5's and it's definitely not bad, but, I've realized from it, that I don't need anything higher than a 1-6. Also, the Tango-6T is so damn heavy, I'm extremely confident that I could literally beat someone to death with it. Seriously.
I love my Eotech Vudu 1-6x but up front, the illumination absolutely sucks a butt. It's only good for dusk/overcast-ish conditions. Adjusting magnification is pretty stiff too. That being said, I run it on my Hellion and likely will leave it on there for quite some time. Their 1-8X is basically the Vortex Razor 1-8X they skipped to make the 1-10X.
BRASS FACTS DROP LESGOOOO
I feel justified by going to the NF NXS 2.5-10x42mm. Same weight, same price.
as an owner of this scope “what am i doing with a 100moa speed ring” part sent me
Was seriously considering this scope for a build until I watched this video... BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD I GUESS!!!
All in on the Nova burrito
2.5-20x ATRO-20 is a heavy hitter. Descent low end up to 20. Offset red dot best if you must have 1x.
From my internet "research" I managed to come to the same conclusion. It just seems like its overlooked. But now that you made a video calling it premium the price on the used market is going to jump. Thanks BF lol
Thank you, you saved me $1600. I was thinking about red dot ACOG combo or this.
“Make sure you’re not getting 10x lpvo on your gun just for the sake of getting a 10x lpvo on your gun”
This is solid advice as dumb as it may sound..I am ashamed to admit I fell into this trap without properly thinking it through. I thought lack of parallax adjustment would be fine but turned out I really needed it for my SPR…who knew!?
Anyway great video this is an optic I have been very interested in since it came out
Good review
I would love to hear the justification of not having daylight bright illumination. Especially when they went to such lengths to include their signature reticle. I get that it probably would have sucked up battery life, but the tradeoff would have been worth it.
Really liking your Optics Reviews. Stumbled across them while doing LPVO research. But it's extremely hard to actually find something that would be worthy enought to replace my 1-6 Delta Striker HD... unless you step up to a Kahles or Swarovski maybe...
This channel is starting to remind me of that meme where there is a guy in camo pants and a hi viz vest.
This is the video ever made.
I'm eagerly waiting for the slightly lighter 2-10x Vudu, to replace my triji 2-10x (because I didn't know about PA a the time)
I am most definitely tipsy (maybe drunk), but I love the sass. Commenting on how eotech is a decade behind on certain features 😂
Algorithm fed. Looking forward to the future content bud.
Interesting video. Do you have any experience on the vortex razor 1-10? Be curious to hear your thoughts.
Yeah, it's red dot bright illum, and looks sexier.
Imo, in all other regards the Vudu wins.
Good shit thank you
How about the 5-25x50 short boy EOtech makes ?
Been debating between this and a PLXC for a scar 17 battle rifle build. Any opinion?
The upcoming Delta 1-10x with parallax adjustment is looking promising but also will have a street price of 2k - about 700 more than the vudu
Damn, I was really hoping you were going to sell me on it bc I LOVE the idea of the speed ring. It must sounds like the execution missed.
The more I hear of people dropping Gs on scopes, the happier I am for getting a new trijicon accupoint with the green triangle for only 600 bucks.
Any scope has zero-set if you just unscrew the crowns and move zero back go the marker.

Seems like sticking with my Vudu 1-6 was objectively the better choice. Glad I stayed with the 1-6
I don't know why everyone has gotten so sucked into the topic of scope optics recently. I've picked up a few things here and there, and I'm amused that things keep coming in waves. Via the grapevine, someone pointed out that the LPVO was a 3-gun thing, because you could only have one optic... At the same time, LPVO's really tend to struggle on the low end, and the high end of their magnification range, and the take-away from the SPR/SAPR videos I've seen from both you and hop, as well as Nutn tend to focus on lower power optical scopes (2-10, 3-9x) While Hop's observation that you all got smoked by a dude with a 4-16x.
For those of us in the western deserts, the higher-medium 4-14,16 etc are really amazing, and I'm still confused why people try to hammer away with LPVOs and other devices that just aren't that tuned for the environment. I think what I just keep coming back to, is I just don't need a 1x power setting, I'm not sure I need a 2x power setting. I run a 3x prism on one gun and I kinda wish that was more. There's a lot of development and R&D being sunk into the 1-24x, but the obvious trade-offs in terms of exit pupil, and the biggest one for me: Objective lens size just make me confused why people keep torturing their wallets with LPVOs, without a real METC (yea, i'm co-opting the acronym for myself).
We're all capitalists here, and if it tickles your fancy to buy one, do it. I'm just always searching for the underlying logic beneath that purchasing choice.
Word Bro
It’s a popular way to spend money and keep up with the Jones.
I think I needed to read this to push me over the edge towards a 5-30x56.
@@illestdomer2005 only question when you go that big is what the size and weight constraints are.
@@highdesertdrew1844 I feel like my shoulders and upper back can handle the 36-39oz of the Optika6 or Ares UTR vs $2,500+ range. I really don’t want to buy Chinese, but the Ares UTR just appears to be outstanding for the money.
That said, I love the PA reticles; so, I am also heavily considering just plunking down the money for a PLx compact or a GLx 4-16 as a happy medium. I am almost researched out where I just need to make a decision and stop looking.
LMAO You did the Ass Facts thing on purpose this time, YESSSSSS. Weve got one of these to review as well right now, looking forward to seeing how our results compare. Stay awesome man!
the iron was, I said it on purpose last time to, but I was a bit more subtle haha,
@BrassFacts CrassFacts here :)
I see Movember is still in full swing.
Looking to build a nice general build on a 18” scout squad M1A, thinking between this scope or getting something like a 3-12. My scope Mount on the gun allows me to keep the use of my irons with a scope on. Anyone have thoughts?
@BrassFacts what is the multicam pack you have?
Just got one of these for 1300$ shipped im hyped.

I’d love to see you review a few *ultra premium* LPVOs that supposedly get around some of these issues like the March compact tactical shorty, nightforce S-VPS Milspec, Schmidt Bender’s weird thingamabobs, etc. Of course they’re hilariously expensive, but I’m curious to know if they’ve actually figure this 1-10x/1-8x conundrum out.
1-8 isn’t really a conundrum. The S&B is fantastic but prices are dumb
What’s a good 2-10X(Y)
What jacket is that? It's sick
wished you did the 1-10 valdada. Expensive AF. But people that held it said its ... different
I know you won't see this but what do you think of the scalarworks mount? I ordered an LPVO and I'm really curious about it
You want a good 10x buy an actual range scope rather than an LPVO. Got a 3x-10x on my 14.5. Makes for very good sight picture for PID purposes.
Around the 4:30 mark when you were discussing the 1X you said compared to other 1-10s the 1X on the Vudu is better, but then you said if you’re using to really nice 1X LPVOs that it’s lacking. So two part question: how does it compare to the razor 1-10 and what would you consider some of the best 1X LPVOs? I run an offset dot so it isn’t incredibly important to me, but I like the reticle more than my current razor III.
it's better than the razor gen III 1x.
But the 1x here gets beat by the PLX-C, the good SFP 1x and perhaps even the creedo type optics.
What sling do you use?
So what lvo should I get for about 500?
Is it fair to say that getting this new at the price of $1050 US is a good deal?
Or (plot twist) get the Steiner T6Xi for under $1K US? I may have pull on Leupold too, but these are my top contenders
He did he did😂
I have a 1-6x razor hd sfp. If I want something ffp at 8x or 10x, would you suggest trading the razor for this guy?
Everyone compares the Razor gen 3 1-10, and the Vudu. Meanwhile March has a 1-10, with parallax adjustment, that is under 18 oz, 8 inches in length, with a dual focal plane reticle (red dot on sfp and tree on ffp), decent eye relief, exit pupil on par with the Razor and Vudu, and price point comparable to the Razor. Not sure how the depth of field compares, but hey you have an adjustible parallax. It's also from a company that is held in the same regard as SB, Zies, Khales, and Tangent Theta. And if you're one of those weirdos that doesn't care about FOV, and intermediate magnification, or that always dials, they have a SFP (with adjustable parallax) at almost the same price as a Vudu.
Great video, I’m debating on buying a Vudu 1-10 or Vudu 1-6 for a 308 FN Scar .
generally: 1-10 is your bet.
The 1-6x is kinda just a worse 1-10x
The price with the mount is so close to the vcog that I feel like I should just be getting something that performs similarly but has more durability.
I got one about a month ago, I like it but the eye relief is weird
Weird question but if I ignore the high and low magnification on a 1-10 (razor specifically) and compare its 3-9 range to a dedicated 3-9 scope, will the 1-10 still be worse? In what ways does it suffer?
generally yes. The vudu lacks the parallax adjust, and generally it's not a great rifle scope. It's still very much a lpvo
It's a Lil Nova Burrito! Thanks for the share!!
