LEDE Vudu 3 9X32 3

Measuring a scant 6.8-inches long and weighing in at a lightweight 16 ounces, this second focal plane (SFP) optic showcases EOTech’s reputation for durability and optical clarity in a compact package; perfect for AR platforms, lever-guns and any other firearm where you may want a small but highly effective variable-power optic. 

Vudu without red dot

Like every optic in EOTech’s Vudu line, the new 3-9x32mm is packed with high-end features like an aircraft-grade aluminum housing, XC high-density, low dispersion glass with anti-reflective coated lenses for optimal light transmission and edge-to-edge clarity and windage and elevation turrets with ¼-MOA adjustments. The Vudu 3-9x32mm also sports an integrated base that is also compatible with mini-ACOG mounts, and an illuminated HC1 reticle with the ability to switch between 10 brightness settings so you always have a clear and crisp view of your reticle, no matter the time of day or background. A single CR2032 battery powers the illuminated optic for up to 300 hours.

Vudu with red dot

For those shooters who appreciate having both a variable-powered optic as well as a non-magnified sight like a red-dot mounted on their rifle, a version of the Vudu 3-9x32mm is also being offered with a ring mount and EOTech EFLX Mini Red Dot sight, providing the ability for magnified shooting as well as close-quarters, fast target acquisition. With the included ring mount, the EFLX Mini Red Dot can be mounted on top or at a 45-degree offset angle.

Vudu without red dot

Of course, the new Vudu 3-9x32mm is also fog, water and shock resistant.

Vudu with red dot

We think the new Vudu 3-9x32mm will be an ideal optic for keeping hogs, coyotes and other varmints at bay, and even big-game hunting at reasonable distances. If you’re in the market for a compact variable-power optic that more than carries its weight, you need to check it out.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

In Italy, ragù simply refers to a slow-cooked meat sauce. Bolognese—ragù alla Bolognese—is just one regional variation that originated in Bologna and traditionally incorporates tomatoes, wine, milk, and finely minced meat simmered low and slow until deeply rich and complex. But some of the most beautiful ragù dishes in Italy contain little or no tomato at all. This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
