I've tried several scopes on my crossbows over the years, and so far been very happy with the Hawk X B30 SR, nice optics ,compact, illuminated, and marked yardages.

I've looked through Boo's VXR and it is a sweet setup. I opted for a XB30 although the sky is really the limit with optics. I've got optics on my rifles that are north of $2K!!

The XB30 should be an upgrade from the Tact Zone stock but one day I might find mine wearing a VXR with an Optimizer. It really is a nice scope but it is much more than the XB30.

I am wondering would the Hawke XB1 SR be an improvement over the stock scope on the Matrix 355 (Tact-zone) ?
