Tract TORIC UHD 4-20X50 PRS Rifle Scope Review

If you’re looking for an affordable long-range scope with the features and glass quality of scopes that typically cost double or more, look no further than the Tract TORIC PRS scope.

Tract Optics is a direct-to-consumer company that’s been around since 2016. It offers high quality optics at outstanding prices by cutting out the middleman. Jon LaCorte and Jon Allen are the co-founders, and they have been in the hunting optics business for over 40 years combined. They know the optics industry and products inside and out.

Tract TORIC PRS Scope Features

The TORIC UHD 30mm 4-20X50 First Focal Plane MRAD PRS Long Range Rifle Scope is a great example of their vision. It’s designed to change the way shooters approach long range shooting. The MRAD PRS reticle allows the shooter to measure targets to determine the distance and then make corrections by either dialing or using the reticle for bullet drop compensation. While it was developed for use by PRS long-range shooters, it’s not out of place on a hunting rifle either.

The .04 MRAD floating center dot does not obscure the target while still providing a precise aiming point. The Christmas Tree style reticle provides .2 MRAD windage correction holds for long range precision in virtually any conditions. Since the windage and elevation adjustments match the reticle values, long-range shooters can make adjustments quickly and easily by using the reticle as a reference in relation to the impact of the bullet.

In practical use, if you have a starting velocity of 2,800 fps and a G1 B.C. of about .500 the drop values at each 100-yard increment line up well with the mil reticle lines between 300 and 700 yards without dialing in additional drop. A shortcut for remembering this is taking the yardage and subtracting two (500 yards would be three mils). This will save you time when in a competition or hunting situation.

The FFP (first focal plane) design allows shooters to use the reticle at any magnification. For accuracy, the reticle is broken up into .2 milliradian increments as well as .5 milliradian increments along the horizontal crosshair with larger hash marks indicating 1-mil increments while the vertical cross hair provides .5 milliradian holds.

There are 20 mils of total elevation adjustment, enough to handle the most common PRS distances. If you need more elevation for longer distances such as 1,000 yards, consider adding a 20 MOA rail. For extreme long ranges such as 2,000 yards, check out the new Tract TORIC 4.5-30×56 ELR scope, which is 34mm and has 32 mils of elevation. You can match your exact load using Tract’s Impact Ballistics program, available online or via the mobile app.

Field Testing the TORIC PRS

I mounted the Tract TORIC PRS scope on a Ruger Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor with a Magpul Hunter stock and 20 MOA Picatinny rail. Using the Impact Ballistic program on my phone, I plugged in the data for the Hornady 147-grain ELD-M match load, including measured muzzle velocity and a 100-yard zero.

To hit a deer, coyote, or steel plate at 500 yards I use the third mil line in the reticle. Or I can dial up three mils using the elevation turret. With the zero stop feature it’s easy to return to my 100-yard zero after the shot. I have shot this setup out to 1,000 yards and find that hitting IPSC-style steel plates is shockingly easy at 500 yards, once the scope is dialed in to the distance. The scope passed a box tracking test with flying colors. It also tracked well all the way to the end of the adjustment and then easily returned to zero with the included zero stop. This rifle is so accurate and the scope is so precise that I could predict the impact almost exactly with every shot.

The Tract TORIC’s distinctive graphite gray finish matches up well with the Stealth Gray Magpul Hunter American stock.

Tract’s Fully Multi-Coated, Ultra High-Definition optical system utilizes an extra-low dispersion (ED) lens to eliminate color fringing as well as highly prized Schott HT (high transmission) glass to provide superior light transmission and bright, clear images even in low-light hunting conditions. People in the optics industry commonly refer to this as German glass when describing the glass quality. All glass is fully multi-coated, and the reticles are etched into the glass. This scope is as bright and clear as anything I have ever used, including scopes that cost twice as much or more.

The scope has a quick-focus eyepiece and a side-focus parallax adjustment on the left side that adjusts from 25 yards to infinity. Tract Optics scopes are water and fog proof and are purged with argon gas. The elevation, windage, and parallax adjustments are silky smooth and can be hand turned without tools.

Locking turrets, zero reset and tactile dialing precision are excellent features of the Tract TORIC PRS.

Included in the scope is an illuminated reticle for low-light conditions. At the lowest magnification and illumination power setting, I found it easy to focus on the center crosshairs of the reticle as the “Christmas tree” is not as visible or distracting. This feature will come in really handy when hunting. However, at the higher magnification and illumination settings the full reticle is easy to reference and use.

Tract included a set of Tenebraex Tactical Tough Flip Covers with the scope. They are heavy duty, screw into place for stronger retention, and conveniently flip up and lock back out of the way when it’s time to shoot. Also, with a full 360° of rotation I can position the open covers exactly where I want them.

The Tract TORIC paired with a Ruger Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor with a Magpul Hunter stock and Banish Backcountry suppressor has proven to be a tack-driver in the author’s field testing.

Wrap Up

The TRACT TORIC PRS 4-20X50 UHD 30mm riflescope can be purchased from TRACT for $1,294 at the time of this writing, which is a bargain for the features and quality you get that typically cost double or more. I plan to use this setup for long-range target shooting and for hunting fields where longer shots are more common. There’s no doubt in my mind that I have the best optic for my preferences to cross over and do both. Get yours at tractoptics.com.
