Swarovski ATC or STC feedback

[littlewood75]

I am interested in the Swarovski STC or ATC. I have the STX 95 but I am wanting a lighter weight spotter while in the backcountry. Not wanting to replace the 95, just wondering if the lighter Swaro spotter is worth looking into. Thanks

Absolutely. My ATC was good enough it replaced the 65mm objective on my ATX. I have only the 95 now for ATX or BTX.

So far I am really liking my STC,
I think it will always be in my pack vs.
the “sometimes” of my 65mm STS.
Optically it gives up very little to the bigger brother.

Since I got my ATC, the 95 hasn't been out of the house!

That's what I wanted to hear. I had the 65mm as well and got rid of it. I'm looking into the smaller spotter more for spring time outings when I'm out shed hunting. The 95mm would be hard to leave behind in the fall.

Thank you for the reply. That's what I was wondering if it was on par with the 65mm.

Thank you for the reply. This would be more for being out and about during the spring when I'm shed hunting. Don't much care to pack the 95mm then but there's always that one time I wish I had it to pick something apart.

Buy the stc, it literally has the same hinge point as your binos. It makes switching super easy while staying on target.

IMHO it’s probably the best addition to my set up in the last 5 years, while since my atx 95. The 95 now spends a lot more time in the truck and the stc goes everywhere with me.

I definitely prefer the straight over the angled just for that reason. Love the 95mm but it'd be nice to have something smaller for certain situations. Seems like I always want a spotter when I don't have it in the pack.
