Introduction

It’s no secret that I am an optics nerd, riflescopes are probably number two for me, right after precision rifles. As such, I get to spend a great deal of time playing with riflescopes of all kinds. Whether it be a five-thousand dollar optic, or a five-hundred dollar optic, I really enjoy seeing what can be done with riflescopes. A secret pleasure of mine is finding high performing rifle scopes at low price points, and today I am on that mission again. The subject of our review today is the Lucid Optics MLX 4.5-18X44 riflescope.

Lucid Optics

Lucid Optics is a relatively new optics manufacturer based in Wyoming, where the air is as clear as the glass in their scopes. It seems that part of getting into the optics business is starting with some no-nonsense slam-dunk products like long-range rifle scopes. I don’t know for sure, but I’d say it’s a fair bet that the open country and big game animals of Wyoming inspired somebody to create an affordable rifle scope for conquering the western landscapes.
