Vortex Solo R/T 8x36 Monocular | MRAD Ranging Reticle, Waterproof & Lifetime Warranty

Compact, capable observation in a single hand

The Vortex Solo R/T 8x36 monocular is designed to be a trusted compact companion—light enough to carry, ready to deploy at a moment’s notice. It features the MRAD-based ranging reticle with reticle focus, allowing quick on-the-fly distance estimation and target reference. A generous eye relief and a sizable exit pupil help deliver a bright, comfortable viewing experience, even when light is scarce. The result is a versatile optic that makes close scouting and longer-range assessments feel that much smoother, without sacrificing image quality.

Optical performance that respects your expectations

Premium roof prisms with fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission and reduce reflections, yielding a clear, bright image with solid contrast. The flared eyecup design blocks stray light and folds down for users who wear glasses, ensuring comfortable viewing across a range of eye positions. The large focus wheel paired with a dedicated reticle focus lets you dial in sharp details for both image and measurement accuracy, supporting confident observations in the field.

Field-ready durability and versatility

Built to be used as a standard piece of kit, the Solo R/T includes a practical utility clip that attaches to a vest or belt for rapid access. Textured rubber armor provides a confident, non-slip grip while offering robust protection in rugged environments. The monocular is O-ring sealed and nitrogen purged, delivering reliable waterproof and fogproof performance so you can rely on it in challenging weather or humid conditions.

In addition to its core features, this monocular is backed by Vortex’s unlimited, unconditional lifetime VIP Warranty. This commitment speaks to the brand’s confidence in durability and ongoing support, making it a compelling choice for explorers, shooters, or outdoor enthusiasts who value long-term reliability.
