Are these aluminum?

The primary cover is a flexible plastic.

Tenebraex has sizes that fit the 1.2. @ChrisAU posted about it. I bought some, they work well.

Is this all you need?

That is just for the eyepiece.

The Kestrel throw lever is the way to go IMO

Agreed. I like mine alot. I think @sndmn11 was the one that originally tried them.

Correct, I've got a MKM Swarovski lever on the Mavens I have and they are fine. There's pics somewhere on here but I can't keep track of the different threads.

What is the purpose of these 2 hash marks?



I dial and don't hold over but on my rifle the 7.5 mil hold over would be at 910 yards and the 10 mil hold over would be for 1090 yards. The vertical line looks like its .5 mil thick which would cover around 16" at 910 and 18" of the target at 1090.

Maybe fair, but I did buy this scope because of the reviews by RS members including @mxgsfmdpx and I’ve killed multiple animals over 800 yards.

My point is that some on here preach the gospel of the drop test like it’s the be all end all and the reality is, it isn’t. There are too many variables on a drop, rings, rail, stock, scope, torque values, etc. I stand by my comment. Drop your shit, confirm zero. I don’t care if you paint it with purple nail polish and torque to your special secret specs, a dropped rifle should be assumed to be an inaccurate rifle.

No further issues with my maven that was dropped. It then banged around the backseat of my rental TRD off road Tacoma on some nasty Alaskan trails. Busted through brush and took a beating for 8 hard days of moose hunting.

523 yard shot and the bullet landed right where I aimed it.

The Maven that was dropped from the truck has a slightly bent windage turret upon close inspection yesterday. I've since dialed it left and right about 1,000 clicks and it hasn't had any issues holding zero so far. Put 100 more rounds through the gun as well.

It survived some nasty off road trails in my rental Tacoma and my buddies ATV after the moose shot as well, survived a plane ride back to AZ, a truck ride in the bed inside a Pelican case, the Jeep ride to my shooting spot, and was still zeroed.

The stupid thing seems like it's just gonna keep on working.
