Would you buy this scope?

I'm looking forward to the reticle

Is this going to be a UM exclusive product?

I have 2 Sig scopes that have push button locking elevation turrets.

I used Zeiss HD5 scopes in the past that had locking windage/elev turrets that you pulled up to unlock, and pushed back down to lock. The ergos on them are awesome and much faster than other designs I've used like the Leupold.

I saw a video from unknown munitions about the rokstock saying they weren't doing presales ever again. My guess after reading this thread is it is going to be an exclusive through them

I'd buy this scope, and I'm probably in the minority, but if it had locking side focus down to 25yds like the old Nikon Monarchs I'd stick it on some rimfires too, provided it isn't 5" wide at the turrets. I had an MOA Maven RS.1 I liked a lot.
Low profile lift to turn elevation with zero stop and capped windage would be great too.

Rifle scopes with zero locks or stops have a body having an internal movable optical adjustor adapted to shift an image generated by the riflescope, a knob connected to the body for rotation about a knob axis and operably connected to the optical adjustor to position the optical adjustor based...

Figured there must be a reason all the scopes that work weigh what they do.

Yeah, seems they can be a touch lighter in SFP, but that 24-26 seems to be the bottom. I was hoping this scope would come in a little lighter. I think my dream scope for hunting might be what’s being discussed here mostly, only 2-10 or 12 or so, SFP with the reticle trued at 6x (with a detent or something to hit the right spot). This could trim it down a decent amount.

There can be a lighter scope- but it’s a multi year project.

Just use helium fill gas

If (When?) this hits the market, gonna be able to get RS1.2's for a great price ... no more "out of stock" on them.

If you’re looking Guidefitter has them or did last week. I got one in yesterday. I see what the hype is about. I really like it what little I’ve used it. I expect I’ll get 2-3 more as funds allow.

I now have replaced all 5 of my scopes with same one. Figure easier to learn to use one, then doesn't matter the rifle I shoot ...

That’s a good idea. Kinda done that with the 3-9hd but then I get the itch to try one of the newer ones like the Maven. And here we are following a thread about another new scope that’s not even available yet….haha. Good stuff.

Just incase any designers/manufacturers/engineers/influencers of this project are here and interested in my 0.000001% of market share....

Lost me at 24oz
Probably not going to displace a Maven

 

[Montstr78]

I was just thinking a bit more...can't someone just bring back the 3-12 Bushnell LRTS? I really wish I had bought a 3-12 instead of the 4.5-18 from Doug. If they had 25 yard parallax I probably would run them on pretty much everything.

It’s nice to see someone else knows how to count in 1/4’s.

It’s common to pay royalties to use others patents. More a question of whether the patent holder wants to play ball and if the patent is valuable enough in the market door others to pay to use it.

Why do all this? What do you get that the Maven RS1.2 doesn't offer? AT 20oz, that would be pretty awesome. or at $1000. At 25 and $1500, it doesn't seem like a substantial competitive advantage. Didn't the Maven do really well in Form's tests? at 26oz, the Maven is heavy. Sure.
I mean this curiously. I seriously don't know, but I know something of how hard it is to make a competitive product like this.

X2, it has to outperform in durability and weight or price point to be an optimal replacement
