Vectronix Shooting Solutions New Rangefinding Binoculars

One of the most interesting product launches at the recent IWA exhibition in Germany was Vectronix Shooting Solutions as a new business unit of Safran Vectronix, and their new VECTOR X rangefinding binoculars in 8×42, 10×42 and 12×42. I think that regardless if you use it for hunting, extreme long-range shooting or long-range shooting competitions its features are going to be appreciated, like MRAD reticles, D-Pad control, heads-up Applied Ballistics Elite calculations on an active-matrix OLED display and a laser that shoots longer than almost any caliber. There are also new RADICAL X binoculars with MRAD reticles.

to measure distances of up to 7000 yards / 6400 meters (laser class 1M)
or 4400 yards / 4000 meters (laser class 1, Europe) the VECTOR X is a rangefinding
binocular for the most demanding shooting scenarios.
With unrivaled usability as its guiding principle, the VECTOR X is the first
