Special Weapons, January - February 2011






The Rapid Reticle™ line includes the RR-800-2, which is a 10x42mm fixed power scope specifically designed for use with the .308 cartridge. The Rapid Reticle Aiming System is designed to ease the shooter’s ability to get accurate fire on target at different ranges. With clear range crosshairs from 800 yards at the bottom to 100 yards at the top, the reticle looks like a Christmas tree. With crosshairs, lines and dots, the Rapid Reticle is designed to be used without the shooter removing turret covers and making corrections by moving the elevation turret up or down.

 

Special Weapons, December 2010






Attached to the M21A5 is a Rapid Reticle 800-2 10×42 scope manufactured by Pride Fowler Industries. The reticle consists of several hold-over lines ranging from 800 on the bottom to 100 near the top of the reticle, referred to as the Rapid Reticle Aiming System. Once the scope is zeroed, the shooter merely has to adjust the focus to the appropriate yard indicator for the desired range and wind estimation. The scope is equipped with the traditionally windage, elevation and parallax focusing knobs for fine-tuning. The scope is waterproof as well as shock proof. The scope is calibrated for the most used 168-grain or 175-grain match rounds.

 

Gun Blast, June 2008






The RR800-2 is a matte black finished scope that uses an aluminum one-piece main tube, and weighs in at about eighteen ounces. The length measures about thirteen and three-quarters inches long, not counting the detachable sunshade. With the shade attached, the overall length measures sixteen inches. The RR800-2 has low-profile target turrets that are covered with threaded caps. The target knobs underneath are very clearly marked, and easy to see. The scope has a side focus knob, which I greatly prefer to the adjustable objective bell type of focus. It too, is covered with a threaded cap. The scope appears to be of very high quality with clear optics, and is built in Japan to PFI specs.

 

North American Hunter, February 2008






We have removed the old scopes from both 20 inch and 24 inch AR-10T's and replaced them with a quick range acquiring scopes. The new scopes are Pride Fowler Rapid Reticle Special Ops Scope 30mm Tube 10x 42mm Side Focus 800 Yard Rapid Reticle Matte RAPID RETICLE 10 X SCOPE CALIBRATED FOR the 7.62 We talked to Pride Fowler innovators of the RAPID RETICLE scopes calibrated for the 7.62 NATO cartridge and gun. The scopes I received had a nice matte finish . The scope has a factory engineered bullet drop reticle calibrated to match the 7.62 NATO round. The reticle has bullet drop stadias at 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 and 800 yards. The scope reticle also includes wind pins on each stadia for 5 and 10 MPH cross winds. yards. I myself have never seen a scope this versatile. Under the turret caps resides two huge target style windage and elevation turrets big enough to sight in with a gloved hand. Removing the side turret cap exposes the parallax adjustment knob.

 

Predator Master, October 2009






I went to the range last thursday to sight in my fixed 10 power Pride Fowler scope. They're out of Tucson. I zero'd the scope using 55gr American eagle, more or less to get it close so I didn't have to waste my handloaded 77gr bullets that i use for hunting and long range precision shooting. I noticed right away that they use good glass, as good or better than leupold. Looking at the edges of the scope, i tried to find any unclear, jagged spots, but to no avail. Everything was looking good. My attention turned to the BDC reticle they use. Its called the rapid reticle and the only thing I need to get used to is the 100yd has mark is above the actual crosshairs. That will take some time, but it will be easy to get used to. I shot at 100, 200, 300 and 500yds. Believe it or not my best group came at 500yds. I had just under a MOA 4.75 inches. Not bad for a fixed 10 power and still getting used to the scope. I need to dial my load down a hair, I'm running at 2725fps and if I were at 2650, I'd be right where the BDC lines are.

 

Guns Magazine, November 2007






The trademark Rapid Reticle 800 LR 10x42mm scope sent me has a “side wheel parallax focus knob, first focal plane reticle, is made of 6061 T-6 aluminum, and has a heavy duty turret spring. The main body is 30mm. The reticle is also available in a 3-9x42mm with internal parallax correction in either the first or second focal plane reticle position.” Several additional scopes as well as CQB sights have been added to their list of products. You might recall both Mickey Fowler and John Pride are world-class pistol shooters who won national recognition for their prowess for many years. Since both are also avid hunters, they came up with a line of scopes to meet their rigid demands.
