Buy or Bust – Cabela's® Intensity Rifle Scope

October 1, 2020

While archery hunting has surged in popularity in recent years, the truth is that firearm hunters still far outpace those with a stick and string. Millions of hunters use rifles, shotguns and handguns each year in the quest to fill their tags. For firearm hunters, good optics, riflescopes in particular, are crucial to a well placed, lethal shot. That begs the question, what are "good" optics? Does the price tag attached to one riflescope indicate some sort of superiority over a scope of a lesser value? Not necessarily. Spending more money doesn't always mean better performance. On this edition of Buy or Bust we're talking the budget minded, high performing Cabela's® Intensity Rifle Scope.

Here are the high points:

3-12x40mm
4X optical system
Custom EXT ballistic reticle
Extra-long eye relief
Fully multicoated
Fast focus eyepiece
Waterproof/fogproof

The Cabela's® Intensity Rifle Scope's optical system is fully multicoated which presents a bright, clear image to users, even in low light situations. The extra-long eye relief, a large exit pupil and fast-focus eyepiece help users achieve quick target acquisition and the custom EXT ballistic reticle lets users accurately adjust for bullet drop out to 500 yards. An innovative 1-piece main tube design makes the scope light and durable and it also features low-profile windage and elevation adjustments, rubber eye guard and easy-grip rubber power selector.

Everyday, average, blue collar hunters like myself that are trying to balance their passion for the outdoors with the reality of their wallet don't need to drop thousands of dollars in order to get a scope that performs well for them in the field. The truth is that advances in technology have improved the quality of optics across the board and it's possible to get great glass without a massive investment.
