The Zero Tech Trace ADV 4-24x50mm which is also Japan made by Low failed holding zero on the drop test. Is this scope built different?

Totally different scope. We require durability above all else, followed by aesthetic appeal.

I don't think money was the reason to limit it to 500. They've only tested 3 samples so far. If they did 2000 and there was an issue with them, that'd be a huge problem. I think they want to make sure they are what they seem before they start selling them like hotcakes.

Honestly, we lack the resources to deal with more than 500 at a time. Remember, we are gonna test every scope.

I was spending some time looking at the THLR reticle dimensions now that it's not a rush situation. At first I just saw the center dot was .145 Mil thick and thought, damn that's a really bold reticle. But said, oh well, and went with it anyways.

But it's really not a thick reticle as a whole. That's JUST the center dot. The graduations and wind holds are all in that .06 thickness ranges which really makes sense. Because you're normally only holding the center dot on where you're wanting to hit at relatively close yardages and moderate conditions, or just shooting groups. Anything 600+ is likely to have some sort of wind hold which will be utilizing the more modest thickness portions of the reticle. Even a 1/2 MOA dot can easily be used as an aim point at 1000 yards on a deer. I just thought it was a little unnecessary was all. But in reality, that center dot will almost never be used as the aim point at 1000 yards.

Just something that came to mind is all.

That is fantastic news. @THLR ... I hope this reassures you that your work has not been for nothing ...

How are some guys legitimately angry? Just use a different scope til they restock. Even if it’s the best scope in the world, it’s not magic. There are bigger problems to worry about.

You guys did good.

Because someone will be upset about something no matter what. Form could come down their chimney like Santa Claus and hand it to them for free and they’d complain because it didn’t come with a sunshade they’ll never use.

I don’t get it. Frustrating? Sure, if you’ve been really looking forward to it. There is also another chance coming up in a month. A month on a scope that is 6ish months out best case anyway. Who knows, the first 1000 may end up shipping in the same clear plastic bag anyway.
