Can someone explain to me why people hate on the triumph? Like ok its not a high end dot but 50k hours battery life, shake awake, holds zero, sturdy enough, glass is relatively clear, dot relatively bright and lifetime warranty. All that for 160$.

Because Bushnell builds a TRS25 and you’re not lining influencers pockets?

I like shooting guns and they’re a great option. I don’t need to pay for shit glass and Rinella to adorn my optics

Can you explain to me what makes tje TRS25 Better tant the triumph? I hace never own a Bushnell so I can't conpare. But reading the specs, is has no shake awake, 10x less battery life. I get you don't like companies paying for influencers but its marketing I guess.

At $110 they’re an excellent value for your dollar, I’ve three on different guns including a SX3 Turkey gun. All hold zero without issue and have long and proven track records. This sub is mostly filled with new PAL users and they’ve unfortunately drank the Vortex KoolAid, Vortex is mediocre glass backed up by incredible marketing and with our shit dollar are overpriced for what they are.

Seem like you have a deep rooted hate for vortex😂. I personally never really had good experiences with low tier bushnell scopes but I have never tried their dots. Vortex has done me good over the past decade so I guess we are going to have to agree to disagree on this one.. cheers
