Well done Vortex. You kept us impatiently waiting, but finally the best valued scope on the market has one of the best reticles on the market! God I hate first world problems lol.

The problem with that theory is, there is very little to no existing inventory of the EBR-2C MRAD series right now and the new scopes with the new reticles have not even arrived yet. Not saying a Gen III is not possible but it is a moot point for 2019 at the least. And if the Gen III is a brand new model (like the jump from the Gen I to the Gen II), it might be delayed in production for months into 2020 before we see them.
Vortex has a history of lowering prices on established models as production efficiency increases or as supply builds up. They also are not afraid to drop a SKU or two if they just sit in the warehouse, even if the model is just a couple of years old.
MAP and dealer cost remain the same on the AMG for 2019
Full disclosure, I’m a rookie. Been looking to by a scope for my new Tikka TAC A1 for several months now and finally made up my mind on Razor Gen II. Trying to decide if I take advantage of new price drop of 2C or go for 7C, as premium is not substantial.
One thing I noticed on Scopelist.com, is that 7C has finish discrimination of “matte black”. Does anyone know if that means they are not bronze? I know we are all man here and color matching is a taboo subject, but I’m sure you will admit black on black does look better.
I took advantage of Liberty Optics super sale (thanks again Scott! I haven't been this excited for something to come around for years.) I would HIGHLY recommend seeing what he can do for you on the next sale. If my 7 reticle arrives and it's actually "matte black" also like you're saying, I may end up sleeping with my rifle/ scope. I'd be surprised if that were the case though.
Did I mention to hit up Scott at liberty yet? You should do that.
MSRPSo with the new price drop... are these now going to be PRS production class legal?
it hasn't changed, except the 7C is $2899MSRP is now supposed to be $2000 right? Isn’t that the limit for production glass?
Yeah retail, I secured one for 1650
Where are you finding that at? $1740 is best I have seen.Yeah retail, I secured one for 1650
At $1999 retail, that's going to be the used price all the time when the 7C has been out for any length of time. But hey, good snag.Yeah retail, I secured one for 1650
MSRP is now supposed to be $2000 right? Isn’t that the limit for production glass?
it hasn't changed, except the 7C is $2899
7c is 1999
Nobody pays MSRP. Retail is the only thing that matters
I am not competing so I am not familiar with the rules.Right, but YOU replied to a comment directly tied to MSRP by PRS rules by saying it was $1999, which is factually incorrect. Nobody pays MSRP, but PRS rules don’t give a crap about retail, they go off MSRP, so it’s important that people know where MSRP is so they don’t go blow $1650-1999 on an optic, expecting to compete in Production.
I’m trying to clear the air so nobody’s confused, but apparently it isn’t working...
Who's your vendor?
I wonder what this means for the Gen 1 Razor, I mean with vendors selling the Gen II for $1999, that frequently have 10-15% off coupons that brings a gen 2 Razor to somewhere under $1800. At that price point who is going to pay $1500 for a Gen 1 after the same discount is applied. I just can't see anyone not going to the Gen 2 for only $300. I guess the gen 1 is 10oz lighter and has more elevation adjustment but I'm not sure how many that would sway to it's side with that small of a price gap.
Who did you order from?
