Would you buy this scope?

[338edge]

No but for some it will fill a need. I won't use anything else but the Atacr. My eyesight is bad so I need the best glass possible.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen one. This scope is not built on the LRHS/LRTS system though.

Wasn’t intending to imply it was (that’s 4x anyways) just looks similar and you were noting you didn’t usually see that so I mentioned it for convo:

There’s already been significant discussion of a 2-8x36. Substantially different than the current offering. I don’t see how they couldn’t get this under 20oz, maybe significantly under 20oz. And many of us shoot to 600+ with 8x magnification. It’s the “everything you need, nothing you don’t” scope.

I hear you. It seems that they got talked into doing a 3-18 over a 3-12/14 for a reason, my guess a pretty significant reason in the manufacturing. Probably were able to use some existing parts instead of building from ground up at cost.

Total guess.

Sort of. The history of what happened during development is interesting. They have made very large advances in 5x and 6x erectors in the last two years or so.

That’s what I figured. I went all the way up to 10x and hated it, even in alpha glass. I have found 6x to be the sweet spot personally, so was pleasantly surprised when y’all did too.

Also form, this scope MIGHT finally get me to switch to mil. Ha

@Formidilosus - how is the balance with this scope on a Rokstok? Weight seems to be similar to the Maven RS1.2 and that one seems to make the rifle a little forward heavy feeling (to me at least).

I am guessing it will depend on a lot of variables, including barrel length, barrel weight, muzzle device/suppressor, and where your scope is mounted.

Edit - @benconfused, I missed that you were asking compared to a Maven RS1.2. Sorry.

Haha. Straight up, it’s like a Japanese baby ZP5 in use.

Okay ... so you know that I've been a supporter of this project from the beginning (and, for the new folks, even stated a thread in Sept 2023, a year before Ryan started this one, to 'scope out' which existing models people would want to see the THLR reticle put in - https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/which-scope-as-a-new-host-for-the-thlr-reticle.326711/)

But that post right there physically made me smile ... I probably don't need to know anything else.

This is exactly what we needed.

Again - @Formidilosus, @Ryan Avery, Jake @Unknown Munitions (and the partner company that hasn't been formally announced yet) ... thank you. A lot. We really appreciate the effort that has gone into this.

But does the "R" actually stand for right?
And for the record, I can see it.

Only in metric.

Not for you imperial-using barbarians.

It stands for "roks", it's a new unit of measurement. Slightly shorter than a certain color of croc?

@Formidilosus
What’s the total elevation travel please

 

[RWT]

Curious if Maven is adjusting their sals projections for this FY? Should be a no tariff price decrease coming soon to capture revenue before the bottom falls out. Between the S2H and NF offerings I would expect a market share decline. Capitalism is good.

@Formidilosus

29 mils is what they will advertise. The one I just checked had 31 +/- mils.

 

[Castle Rock]

Nice, a mile is on the table then

 

[huntsman22]

if you have enuff rail......

 

[RockAndSage]

Only in metric.

Not for you imperial-using barbarians.

Just remember, there are two types of countries in the world:

Those who use metric, and those who put men on the moon.
