For you MOA guys the HX is the same price at the moment.
Oh yeah, too good to pass up honestly. I just bought one for my new build. Also debated buying two hahaSuch a freaking good deal. I almost want to buy another one just in case lol

Simple and effective little optic. Zero issues so far. Put 100 rounds of 300 Norma Improved on it in the last week.
What stocks are these?Absolutely none honestly. The elevation turret isn't near as crisp, so I guess that would be one thing. Which isn't a big deal. It's a much more hunting friendly scope, with a much better hunting reticle for killing stuff.
The ATACR was legit, but I can't think of anything I miss about it compared to this little tenmile.
TS Customs personal designed stocks. It’s called a KS1 made by AG composites.What stocks are these?
Damn. I missed this. Hope it goes on sale again soon. Would save me 12oz and get the monkey off my back of thinking my scope is too heavy.For anyone who is currently looking for this scope, it’s on super sale at optics planet. $1059 shipped

Even though you missed it the price they have now is still really good.Damn. I missed this. Hope it goes on sale again soon. Would save me 12oz and get the monkey off my back of thinking my scope is too heavy.
I am wondering how this reticle is for hunting in broken/timber terrain with out the illumination on?
Just got one off Optics Planet today, 12/15...$ 1059 IIRC.Damn. I missed this. Hope it goes on sale again soon. Would save me 12oz and get the monkey off my back of thinking my scope is too heavy.
@Formidilosus - with the Maven RS1.2 looking positive so far, are you seeing any use case for the Tenmile 3-18 at all?
Open country hunting? 22LR competition use? Dedicated 'DMR'-
Have you tried a 20 MOA base?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.

I've got one on order now. Actually the dnz game reaper 1 piece 20moa. Should do the trick I'm hoping. I'm running into a similar issue with my Credo 2.5-15x42 on my 223. Maxes out at about 70 clicks of moa.Have you tried a 20 MOA base?
they are on sale for $1029 right now on amazon or Optics Planet. @huntnful actually talked me into getting one over a 4-20 ATACR.What was the lowest sale price these dropped to on EuroOptic? Bummed that I missed out
Damn! $1029 is a crazy good deal. I bought my first one full price and was happy with it haha. I bought my second one on sale though. I only needed two, but now I want 3 haha.they are on sale for $1029 right now on amazon or Optics Planet. @huntnful actually talked me into getting one over a 4-20 ATACR.
Optics Planet just dropped a $110 plus 2% 'bucks'/credit code (BMSMA, valid until 15 Jan).Damn! $1029 is a crazy good deal. I bought my first one full price and was happy with it haha. I bought my second one on sale though. I only needed two, but now I want 3 haha.
If you're actually trying to be talked into one, just use a 20moa base like a normal personI'm finding it really hard to get past the 8 MIL of elevation knob + only 17.5 MIL (60 MOA) total elevation - so about 8 MIL usable elevation in any case (without a canted base)
Yeah I hear you man. I thought the 8 mil turret would be a bigger issue than it is. It gets me to 1200 yards on a single rotation with my cartridges, and I’m not hunting passed that anyways. So hectic math in a field situation isn’t plausible. Just shooting at the range beyond 8 mils and taking your time, the math is simple.Optics Planet just dropped a $110 plus 2% 'bucks'/credit code (BMSMA, valid until 15 Jan).
This takes the Tenmile to $919.78, plus $18.40 credit ... plus they're giving away OPMOD wireless earbuds with Tenmiles, valued at $102.
($110 works out to about 10.7% off. There might still be some 15% codes out there, but I haven't found any with a quick search. If anyone had one, that would take it to $874,65.)
Even with all that ... I'm finding it really hard to get past the 8 MIL of elevation knob + only 17.5 MIL (60 MOA) total elevation - so about 8 MIL usable elevation in any case (without a canted base). That's about 200 yards for 22LR standard velocity and about 900-ish for 6.5 Creed, depending on bullet - so more than usually needed ... but still ...
Keep trying to talk myself into one ... but hard to find a use case even across all my platforms that can't be covered by either the Maven RS1.2 or the Minox ZP5.
About the only useful piece of advice I've ever got from Ilya is the idea of having a backup scope on hand for every single rifle, "just because" ... maybe that's a possible justification, but the Maven is still only about $200 more when on special. Hmm.
