Everything covered was done very well. However, I would have like to seen the illumination feature displayed through it's eleven settings against various backgrounds and lighting conditions.
FFP eliminate you haven't to run ur computer brain if you site in at 50 an learn your hold overs an who cares if it's on 8 or 34. I have two of these scopes a 6x24x50 of field target gun an the 8x34x56 on 100 yard bench rest gun. Both air guns.
that is completely awesome I think I'm going to pick one up once I have the money. it seems to me however you do need to understand how a second focal plane scope Works to understand how the first focal plane scope works. I still love my leapers SWAT AO scopes. for the money they're extremely hard to beat. I own a few Hawke Scopes as well but the radicals are a little too finally asked for my taste and the way I hunt. the leapers Scopes have very nice beefy reticles and at my age my eyesight isn't what it used to be. lol! I do not wear glasses but I can still split a playing card at 50 yards. I wouldn't mount a scope like this on a spring gun per se.... but it would be nice to know if the scope is rugged enough to handle that recoil. I had to take the battery out of my leapers 6 by 12 by 44 because the recoil of my Hatsan 125 Sniper kept kicking on the illumination.
Hi Tyler would this rifle scope be a good choice for the marksmanship challenge for 22lr. This would be going on and Anschutz MPR 64. Thank you for a great video.
I would say so. I know a lot of guys that shoot NRL22 are running FFP scopes and there are some using Athlon. At the price point, it would be hard to beat
As mentioned in the video, I left the scope slightly left (for the SFP scope) and slightly right (for the Athlon) to make sure that the reticle did not obscure your view of the shot on target.
Accuracy, especially for benchrest shooting. The more zoom you have on your target, the more accurately you can place your reticle on the target. You can also see slight movements clearer to help find more stability. It's very common to see people shrink their group size when using a higher mag scope.
With high magnification and adjustable objective, you can use the AO to range find. Turn the knob until the target comes into focua, and then get your range from the markings. 40X scopes on competition field target rifles are not uncommon.
Hi, Caution & beware, plse. Logo of the canted "A" on side focus knob is possibly a pass-of of Leupold and infringement of the L-logo of Leupold. Trade mark issue here.
Hendrick Otto - whaat?? It is an A, for Athlon not an L, how does it infringe on Leupold logo?? It doesn’t even look the same man, it’s a totally different letter and there’s no crosshair over the “A” either.
