Its my favorite so far
Nearly perfect scope! 1-350 yards this scope provides a shooter with awesome flexibility. I use this scope for deer, varmint, tactical, and long range. Easy to co-witness for close fast shooting and I can still place 20 shots in an 8 inch bullseye @ 350 yards. 99% of the time there is no need to use the batteries on this unit. It is very nice to shoot a tactical match with this scope and never need to adjust the intensity of the reticle. The only time I have used the batteries has been in hunting situations. The reason this is not a perfect scope is because it is best suited for a right-hand shooter. The battery compartment interferes with the left-hand shooters ability to co-witness a target. Glad I am a right-hand shooter.... More

M1A/Socom 16
I mounted a Trijicon Tri-Power on the scout rail of my M1A Socom16. Bought the ARMS 17 throw rail and ring specifically designed for the scope. Rock Solid! Can pop it off and on if I want to use the tritium iron sights. I rarely have to use the batteries because the fiber optic really works. I’ve had Aimpoints in the past and liked them, but they’re one dimensional compared to the Tri-power. With three power sources: tritium, sun and battery, I can adjust to any light condition.
Shooting impressions:
Pros: Don’t have to center the floating triangle to hit target once BZOed. Pinpoint accurate to 50 yards, 4 inch at 100 yards when reflexed from hip to shoulder, 1 to 2 second speed advantage over iron sights. Rugged. Light. Great light intensity options.
Cons:Need cheek pad. Somewhat complicated to zero sights. ... More
