Hi, to put on my 223 for ranges from 100y to 700y.
I've narrowed down to these two.
4.5 to 29(30)x 56mm.
Take note that I want a MOA scope, so it eliminate the Apex. Price range is about 2.2k $
I want great tracking but also sharp glasses.
I can't look thru any of them, I live in a remote area and the lgs only have hunting scopes. So it'll be ordered online.
Your ideas? Thanks.
 
I can't speak for the tract. I have a Cronus and my shooting buddy does as well. It's solid. Great glass, great tracking and awesome reticle. I think the moa reticle is a floating cross. I wouldn't like that. The floating dot is where it's at. I doubt you'd be unhappy with either for the distances you are shooting
 
Pick the one with the reticle you like best.
They are both solid scopes. There is not much of a difference in the glass, if any. The Tract is about 6 ounces heavier if that matters to you.
My personal preference is the Cronus as I find the non-locking elevation turret more to my liking. YMMV.
 
Well, thanks for your replies gentlemen.
Just to let you know: I ordered the Cronus, based on two things: I prefer its reticle and I don't like the tall "pull-up-to-turn" turrets of the Toric.
P.S.: Laker415, the moa reticle also have a floating point in the middle now

Solid choice. You won't be disappointed. That's nice for moa shooters to get the floating dot. I can't shoot a reticle that isn't a floating dot now. Enjoy your scope
