ZeroTech TRACE ADV 3-18×44 FFP Shoot2Hunt

@Formidilosus - how has the feedback been around the scope at the winter S2H class this week? (Assuming one is there).
A participant texted a chat I was in "Hope ya'll got in on the preorder today; these are legit nice scopes." So that's another check in the warm fuzzy feeling box for those that ordered.
 
I don't use night vision devices, so have no use for the RMG-H personally.
Can you tell me more about this - or do you have a link to where this was discussed (I did do a search, but didn't turn anything up).

Happy to take this to DM if you prefer.
 
I looked thru both scopes in SLC and was definitely impressed and made sure that I was able to get a couple ordered on Monday AM. This isn't criticism, just a question...

I really liked the THLR and that's what I ordered but my first impressions when looking thru the glass and my question for those in charge is: Why does the center dot has to be as THICK as it is? The box and posts do a great job of centering the reticle on the target already. I understand that it's a hunting scope first and foremost but 0.145 mils = 1/2 MOA which will pretty much obscure the smaller targets that I often find myself trying to hit for fun when shooting challenges with buddies or my personal KYL setup. (3" gong @ 500 and 6" square @ 1K yards--which I miss much more than I hit (especially @ 1K) but it doesn't mean that it's not fun to try!!!)

Thanks again for bringing this to market.

I kind of liken this to archery pin size preferences. A lot of guys prefer a tiny .010" pin for long range shooting, whereas I prefer a larger .029". I have no problem covering a target with the pin if need be. I've shot rabbits at 100 yards and my pin pretty much covers the whole body. Not an issue.

Dial one (or 2?) extra click and put the itty bitty target on top of the center dot?
 
It's been said a number of times. This is a scope for killing game. Not for target shooting. The RMGH reticle would be better suited for that intended use.

I ordered the thlr, if I don't learn to like it I'm sure I'll have no problem trading it for an rmgh or selling and buying one.
