Would you buy this scope?

How about a version of the NF IHR Reticle?

There are two types of countries in the world:

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

Now, pardon me while I go eat some bacon while driving my diesel to the gun range to shoot machineguns, while listening to some Lee Greenwood.

Lee greenwood? There is far better representation of American music than greenwood. Zeppelin for one.

So…is there an estimated time on this hitting the market? I don’t need exact dates. I just bought a new rifle and rather put my trusted leupolds on top…I’d be willing to sip some kool aid. I like kool aid.

That's an easy conundrum; just buy a new rifle to put one of these scopes on when they come out.

Consider it handled.

Already bought the rifle. I just want to go shoot it and get ready for hunting season in May.

In all seriousness. I’m looking for a maven right now. And remembered this option.

I’m not trashing my leupolds. But I’m not so dedicated that I refuse to try something else. Other than swfa. Muddy glass my last experience with that brand.

Yep, I did read it that you just got a new rifle. I meant get another one.

Seriously though, judging by the time frame from nascent thought to product in hand I've watched on some shooting items, I wouldn't be too confident of getting one on my rig before May. Look how long it's taking SWFA to roll out updated models, and they've been in the scope business for a long time.

But I have zero experience in bringing a scope to market, so I could surely be way off.

Any chance this is the new rifle scope Maven teased on the Rokcast episode TT#45 released on 12/31?

 

[newbie247]

I'm in.

Yes

As much as I’d love to buy another rifle I just can’t justify it. My family of 5 with 3 dogs occupy a 550sq foot home.

But I have been considering a 338winmag guide gun but it would be for iron sights only.

I have no idea on developing and marketing etc…

After May, I got September timeline. May is just for bears and it’ll only be a very short season for me. River open. Hunt when I can but then I got school in June.

Would love to use this 7PRC on a bear.

Yes I’m all in. Basically fix the reticle for useful FFP, eye box, and cap the windage on the NSX 2.5-10

Yes it does.

ANY chance of a fixed 8x? I’ve got to imagine that would shave off significant weight while still hitting every other metric, and saving major cost as well. I’d buy several of those.
