I have a Vudu on my Vudoo 22 and it's a good scope
I like the Eotech, I think part of it is the name, and the association to the AR optics they produced.
For a precision rifle scope, it's a definite option for guys

Is it possible to mount the 5-25 on r700 clone actions with integral scope rails and keep the objective bell < 3/16" off of the top of the barrel contour and have the proper eye relief?
Or is it more likely to run higher rings keeping the bottom of the objective above the (top of) the scope rail?
IIRC, of the few mounted pictures I've seen, that was what I didn't care for too much and perhaps is the nature of the beast with Ultra-shorts Also maybe a non-issue for guys running chassis/stock options with high range of adjustability in cheek height.

Everything is cheap used now vs 2 or 3 years ago. The battle for market share has pushed new prices down, down, down.
you can definitely get rings that keep it super low. but super low isn't always best now that we have stocks with adjustable cheeks
Bump for more info. I have a new Ares ETR that is an orphan since I put a different scope on my .22 target rifle. I was going to put it on a .308 but I think it might be overkill for the max ranges I have available. I already have a Tango6 3-18 that I could put on it but the Vudu 18x has my interest. Since the used prices are low on the Vudu I was thinking I might try to find a trade, but I don't want to regret it later. The ETR is nice for the money and I'd hate to trade it out and regret it later.
I had a 3.5-18 Vudu MRAD. I liked it a lot. I like a plain mil reticle and it has good glass to my eyes. I got it for a good deal and I sold it to a friend for a good deal so he didn’t waste his money on a lesser scope. They go for less than $1k on the Equipment Exchange pretty often. I liked the turrets better on the VUDU than the tango 6. FOV and reticle are better on the Tango 6. Tango 6 is more compact but heavier. Both are a steal IMO.
I just can't bring myself to take anything with the EoTech name on it seriously after their exposed cover up with their holographic sights.
I have 5-25 with a h59 in it. I’d say it’s more at home on a autoloader. It’s nice but if size isn’t an issue I don’t see it better than a viper pst. I cut +-3/4 of an inch off of my rail to get proper eye relief with out putting it on stilts. The o my thing I hate about it is the whole eye piece moves with magnification adjustments so flip caps are shit, and I can’t find a scope coat that fits it
