The Surefire X300 Ultra delivers a stunning 500-lumen beam focused by a precision TIR lens. Its specially selected high-performance LED is biased slightly towards the yellow-green part of the spectrum to which the human eye is most sensitive. This combination of extreme output and optimized off-white light color increases perceived light available for the user, creates a brighter surround beam for enhanced situational awareness, and increases the blinding effect on an opponent’s dark-adapted v
Surefire X300 Ultra,
This is the most intense light I have ever owned I mounted it to my M-4 carbine and it is totally amazing I live out in the country and I have a small pasture behind my house my dogs like to bay pigs at night and this light illuminates the entire pasture making it quite easy to eliminate pesky pigs or any other varmint that may come around either 2 or 4 legged.I cant think of anything negative to say about this fine illumination tool. I highly recomend purchasing this light its worth every penny you pay for it between this light and my Surefire Fury PX-2 Tactical I feel like I could light up the world.

As expected – great quality, easy to mount, and BRIGHT!,
The previous Surefire light (x300) was a very high-quality light, as you can see by the many high reviews. This one (Surefire x300 Ultra) is basically the same, but MUCH brighter. (besides the slight bevels on the end of the light, which look cool, but do nothing that I can tell).
Pros:
-incredibly sturdy feel
-easy to mount
-easy to install/replace batteries
-comes with the 2 required batteries
-SO bright (500 lumens vs the previous 170)
-price – though $299 seems a pretty hefty price for a light, when you consider the previous version (170 lumens) is $275, I’d consider paying only an additional $24 dollars for 500 lumens to be a great deal.
-ambidextrous (can use with right or left hand easily as it has a switch on both sides)
-still fits in the same holster as the x300
Cons:
-personally, I would rather the left switch be a hold-down-on switch instead of a push-and-stay-on switch (then keep the right the same as it is)
-price – yes, I know I put this in the pros too, but – it is still $300 for a light. Do I regret paying it for such a sturdy, bright, great light? Absolutely not.
Side note: I read some online questions similar to: “Is it so bright it blinds you when bouncing off a nearby wall?”…etc. This isn’t a problem. While it IS incredibly bright, at no time did I feel its bounced light caused any issues.

Surefire Ultra,
This thing is a light cannon that will blind anyone and the light circle is awesome
Turn the night into day and invest in this product
You will be impressed. One detail, the thing is very hard to get onto a rail. Once you get it on, you wont want to remove it.
ULTRA tight fit
