Anybody know the hinged eye piece cover he is using in that review? Also a tripod attachment for the ATC?

great review thanks for the insights

Great review, figures I just got my new 20x50x65 ATS after a long backorder wait…. Wasn’t interested in the ATC at all but now I want to check one out.

I think you’ll be good as it’s the 2022 model year that seems to be much better then the prior model year 65’s.

Looking forward to receiving mine this week, supposed to be shipping out tomorrow. Anxious to give it a try during the spring bear season

Whoa wait a minute I want to make sure I understand, the author did compare the 65 ATS, but you’re asking for a comparison with the wide angle 25 to 50 X?

That was my reaction as well, why not compare to the 25 to 50 eyepiece which seems to be the preferred eyepiece.

Would have loved to but it was a clients scope and that was the eyepiece he had.

Appreciate the review, having a hard time deciding between the ATC and ATS. Sounds like you can’t lose with either.

Cody said my orange one shipped today… should have it Friday or Saturday

 

[Matt Cashell]

I talked to Swarovski and they confirmed there is no “new “ ATS or 25-50 eyepiece. The ATS and 25-50 designs remain unchanged since introduction, but the precision production methods have incrementally improved over the years.

Just got mine yesterday. That’s going to be a dream to pack more so than the 65mm ATX.

Court- thanks for the review!

I've been waiting for someone to put one through it's paces

I currently have a Swaro ATS 65 (20-60) specifically purchased for an upcoming Dall hunt. It's an impressive optic; but other than this upcoming hunt, I could get by with a smaller spotter. After my hunt is over, I'll probably look a lot more closely at the ATC and move the ATS.

Does it come with the tripod attachment?

Yes

ATC vs ATX eyepiece. Wow.

I've had my ATC for about 2 months now and am loving it more every time I use it!

nice late Christmas present

I posted on another thread but a neat feature on the ATC/STC is that the objective lens cover will fit inside the eyepiece rubber cover for storage while in use.

Having trouble finding a direct comparison between the SWARO atc and the Kowa 553. Anybody have experience with that?
