Vector S10 budget fiber optic LPVO review

[Moondog]

The Vict Optics S10 is a 1-10x fiber optic LPVO from VictOptics, the entry-level line of Vector Optics. Out of the box, the S10 doesn’t scream “budget.” The build feels solid with turrets that feel and sound better than some premium LPVOs.

The eyebox is decent for a 1-10x, especially at higher magnification, which is rare in this price range. The fiber optic reticle with a horseshoe and central dot is daylight bright in both red and green.

Street price is under $150, putting it in the same tier as the Monstrum Banshee. I’ve reviewed several Monstrum scopes and like them, but the S10 feels better built with a larger ocular, improved diopter, and better eyebox.

Compared to Vector Optics’ top-tier Continental models with Schott glass, the S10 isn’t as flat, bright, or sharp. But as a budget LPVO the S10 is plenty sharp in real world use. If you’re looking for an affordable do-it-all LPVO for general-purpose use, home defense, or recreational shooting, this is worth consideration.
