Would you buy this scope?

I just wanna see yall "take care of" Jake? Hes a big enough to wrestle bears with a stick....

Might be possible. I’m 6’1” and 255-ish. How big is Jake these days?

I think we've gotten all the info we are going to get here for now... onwards to the Procision Arms booth!

You guys are acting like a teenager at midnight..... "One more pic, please! At 10X this time!" Oh yes!"

Out of curiosity, what is the purpose of keeping the aim long dot, but losing the windage holds for it? I assume it’s to reduce clutter (which I’m for) , but seems like you should just remove it entirely then?

If helpful to you, here is Form's post specifically about the long/short holds on the reticle, but the entire thread is a great explanation of the reticle and it's functionality: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/minox-zp5-5-25x56mm-thlr-field-evaluation.253283/post-2477161

Excited to try one of these. Reticle will take a minute to get used to but shouldn't be bad. Cool that it is really just a 0.2 base but much more usable than others. My only worry is the FOV. That is my one complaint with the 3-18 tenmile. Feels like looking through a toilet paper roll. Part of me wishes it was a 50 MM objective because of it.

Bring a 12'r of donuts and gallon of milk and he'll be tied up for a bit.

Now that is the truth!

And once again, I would like to thank all involved with this project. They've been working on this for a LONG time and have spent countless hours with this design and there will be more hours to come.
Rokslide is unbelievably fortunate to have people like this who have this talent.

Thank you to all involved.

I agree wholeheartedly. A genuine “THANK YOU” to those involved. It’s pretty amazing that a couple people just want proper equipment enough to spend time, energy, and resources to bring that item to market. We are for sure fortunate

Have you guys already conceived the standard Mil reticle? Any examples of what you're going for?

Ya'll calm down... the biggest thing I have learned is, that no matter how much you test your gag reflex on here you're not getting the cool new stuff any faster... I've tried and tried and tried..

On a serious note I too am super thankful for this place, the people and the products as they push to improve.

I’m still going to whine and complain until they make me a rok scope in moa.

Just kidding. Kind of

Is there a pool on who's making it?

I'll put $1 on Bushnell.

(ETA: And if I'm right I am fine with Bushnell. More than fine)

He's about to throw that bag down the hall, I can feel it....

I think they can take it. I mean they are confident enough to send a sack of scopes from the other side of the world without any packaging! Or maybe it was to save enough money to get them to the 1k price point.

I’ll pay you $1 if it’s Bushnell

Looks like a nice reticle, especially at lower powers. Honestly wish the center of this reticle was further simplified. There are like 15+ aiming points in the first 1 mil circle of the reticle. For my uses sticking with 0.5 mil sub tensions would have been better (0-500 yard hunting). I can see the utility of the finer marks for wind holds but overall I favor simplicity. Something like this would have been perfect and would be killer in a lower power option like the proposed 2-8. Hats off to everyone involved in the development of this scope and bringing a new option to the table. Interested to see where the final weights come in.

I think it’d be cool if it was Bushy. I’d be happy with that

The second initial reticle at the start is the companies choice- for people that want a more standard or common reticle, it should do fine. It more in the style of the Maven RS1.2 SHR mil, Tenmile (not a tree), SWFA MQ, etc. We trying to tweak the design for better ability to bracket on low power.
