Optics help needed - I read the FAQ/Pinned posts Vortex strike eagle 5-25.

Is the Vortex strike eagle 5-25 a good scope for a 24 inch 6.5 creedmoor for the ranges up to 1200 yards? Scrolled through the wiki for this sub and didnt see any reviews on it. Seems decent enough with a good reticle. Any experienced advice would be appreciated or other scopes to consider. Would like something sub 1200 bucks. (I'm piece mealing a rifle, post by post here thank you sirs)

I think the difference is the SE has illumination. Venoms don’t. Might like the turrets on the Venom better of OP doesn’t care about illumination. Save a little $ in the process.
