1x riflescope

[Pistolpete28]

Has anyone heard anything about a possible fixed power 1x riflescope coming from any manufacturers in the near future? I have the vortex 1x on muzzy, and it gets the job done. I wouldn’t bet my life on it, but I did manage to take a buck at 166 yards last year it was like looking through a toilet paper tube. I know leupold makes a red dot with a dial, but personally I’m not a huge fan of red dots. I would love for a legit manufacturer (NF, SWFA, trijicon, maven exc.)to make a 1x fixed power. They would have lots of customers from people hunting in Washington and Utah.

I'm curious also... planning on going to the Leupold red dot but would like to see other options.

Any 1x scope is going to have that tunneling effect - I used a cheap Traditions 1x on my muzzy for several seasons and it got the job done.

What is it that you don't like about a red dot?

If trijicon made a 1x hunting acog with an exposed elevation turret…

I have experience with the leupold rds with the exposed turret. The one I shot worked great out to 600y or so. This was mounted on a paramount. If you want to dial elevation in Utah the rds is the best option imo. I wish there were more robust options on the market. Even an MRO with a turret would be great.

I feel like it wouldn’t come as natural to my eyes as crosshairs. Maybe I just need to spend some time behind one…..

I thought I say an MRO with a turret, but I think it’s a 2 moa dot, leupolds would probably be better with the 1 moa dot. Right on, 600 yards is a poke with that set up.
