Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44mm Field Eval Q&A

[Spoonbill]

Pretty solid deal on this scope at OpticsPlanet for Black Friday, $1,050.

PSA for anyone ordering from Optics Planet, make sure your paypal address is up to date/ same as your shipping address. Mine wasn’t and opticsplanet sent me an email saying I had to pay with paypal since the addresses were different.

Correct, but I would only use it to verify legal bulls in a herd. This year there were a few times where I wasn’t able to quite tell if the bull was legal. I would think this would help. I also typically don’t carry a tripod, but having the ability to setup the gun on my crossed trecking poles I could see as an advantage.

I hear ya. If you get to the point that you need an alternative, you can add a third leg to your trekking pole setup with a pan or ball head, like what Wiser Precision offers. Or tripod options that double as trekking poles or staff.

I had zero intentions of spending $1100 today. Thank you for your service

How is it on low power in the woods at dusk? That’s my only concern is lower mag at less than ideal lighting conditions.

I have used it on 6 power with no issue picking up the reticle, but it wasn’t in the brush. I would just turn the illumination on in the brush and I think it would be fine.

Neither did I. Misery loves company.

I grabbed one of these in the recent sales. What does everyone like for scope rings?

While I do own several Tikkas, I should have clarified that this is going on a rifle with a rail system.

I use nightforce extreme duty ultralights

Seekins Precision rings. .87” height.

I do have a set of Unknown Munitions Premier rings ordered also though

20moa of cant built into that receiver? Any issues having enough downward travel to zero at 100?

my tenmile 3-18 is on a 20 MOA action and I have plenty of downward travel.

Ditto - around 8-10 or so MOA left for me

My tenmile runs out of upward clicks at 99, just under 25moa... gets me to 900 yards with my 6.5creedmoor 140eldm. I'm wondering if adjusting my zero stop up a bit would get me a few more clicks of travel. I think the zero stop is currently set about 3 or 4 moa below my zero.

No issues at all. I have 14 Mils of vertical left. And whatever the remainder is, I could dial down if need be

Wanted to lighten up my gun and simultaneously get a better FFP reticle for hunting. So I’m testing out this trijicon.

Really appreciate @Formidilosus doing this testing so we can move forward more quickly with confidence.

Used old ammo for bore sight. Measured hit with reticle. Second shot after correction was in the orange dot.

Switched to my hunting loads (I already know this load shoots about .8 for 10 shots). Shot 3 for a quick group. It was almost exactly .1 low. I came up .1, set zero and zero stop and went straight to 650 yards with 3.3 Mils, to verify that the corrections matched my data and similar enough to my last scope. Dialed a few hundred Mils in between the two shots, that ended up landing side by side and pretty close to centered given the wind. Easy peasy.

Hopefully kill a few animals in the coming weeks.

Switched from a 4-20X50 ATACR Mil C.

After hunting with it for a month or so, any regrets or standouts coming from the ATACR? I’m having a gun built and looking between these two scopes currently. Thanks!
