Best Features:
- Durability: The Venom is built tough with a rugged anodized aluminum housing and ArmorTek coating that protects the lenses from scratches, oil, dirt, and even harsher elements. It’s also waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof thanks to O-ring seals.
- Compact and Lightweight: The Venom is a great choice for pistols or rifles where weight and size are a concern. It’s lighter than many other red dot sights on the market.
- Easy to Use Controls: The left-side mounted controls allow for quick and easy brightness adjustments, with both automatic and manual modes. The automatic mode can help conserve battery life, while the 10 manual settings provide a range of brightness options for different lighting conditions.
- Clear Optics: The Venom has fully multi-coated lenses that provide excellent light transmission and a clear sight picture.
- Battery Life: The Vortex Venom gets high marks for battery life. On the highest setting, it can last up to 150 hours, and on lower settings it can last an impressive 3,000 hours. Plus, the top-load battery compartment makes changing batteries quick and easy.
- Choice of Reticle Size: The Venom comes in both 3 MOA and 6 MOA dot reticle options. A 3 MOA dot offers a good balance of speed and precision, while a 6 MOA dot can be easier to see in low-light conditions.
