Just buy a Atacr 7-35 and put it in a unimount. Does the same thing and more plus it will hold resale value

Looks like they had LOW just build a rifle scope without the turrets , beyond lame .

Built in USA.

Built in USA.

Figures, Japanese and Chicoms wouldn't be so lazy with their development.

Its literaly riflescope with a slightly bulkier parallax ring and magnification ring instead of the turrets , shorter eye relief as a trade off for wider FOV .

kinda like modern take on what USO made

It's an oversimplification to say that the CFS is a just a riflescope with no turrets.

Ive been holding out on buying a spotting scope for the last few years waiting for something like this to come along, only for it to have a 50mm OBJ and 36 at the top end. Granted I rarely use spotting scopes above 25-30x, but still wish it had a 65mm OBJ.

Overall, the features (reticle, arca rail, NV rail, and accessory rails) are the selling points for me.

 

[Maurygold]

I don't care how functional that cage might be - it looks lame as shit. I'm staying with my mark 4/ badger.

 

[Thorbeast]

I'm not in the market for this, so I'm not sure what features/specs would be appropriate... But it does have 2x the FOV compared to the 7-35 ATACR. I wonder how this will compare to binos that are commonly used for PRS spotting.

Any reviews on glass quality ?

If you look at it you can tell the ocular is enormous. Very likely it has a great behind-the-scope experience.

Night force quality glass if you are familiar with it. Not the best in the world, but damn good. Super Impressive FOV, and lightweight

 

[NCgreentick]

I don't get it. I thought everybody was into the compact prism type spotters but now long and awkward is the new hotness?

 

[DeathBeforeDismount]

You have a mk4 for 1800 and spotter 45/swaro str80 around 4k. This thing doesn't really move the needle. Small objective, low top end, and if it's like the rest of the NF line glass wise, unimpressive.

What we need is a alpha glass with a good etched reticle for 3-4k that actually has a warranty unlike hensdoldt.

You are missing the small fact that these are NiGhT fOrCe!!

I'm sure they'll sell like hotcakes.

The Mil-XT variant looks great.
I bet it’s one of those deals where it looks goofy/different until you use it, then it’s like “hell yea”.

 

[TheMoondog]

While the SHOT Show expo hall wasn't the best place to test this, I was able to make out some good detail in the shadows of the ceiling catwalk 200 yrds away.

Woohoo upgrade time !

Arrrrrr!!

I might be tempted to try one to throw in the hunting pack. I had a Leupold and didn't like the centered reticle. Currently have a swaro ATC and can see times when the reticle would be useful. The ATC glass is a upgrade over the Leupold and size is a huge consideration when it come to hunting. Had a Hensoldt Spotter60, but it took up too much space so I sold it.

 

[BurtG]

Anyone get hands on ?

 

[ChrisF308]

Seems too small objective lens , at 50mm , as the others are 60mm , 72mm & 80mm , 50mm seems way too small , as a stand alone device .

 

[jbuck88]

It's definitely a niche spot in the market it's filling. It's not a general purpose spotter, but rather it's competing with the leupold mk4 which is 60mm. Then there is the smaller 55mm Kowa which is great. Vortex has a 50mm and 56mm spotter. I'm sure there is a multitude of other spotting scopes in the compact spotter segment. I use a Swarovski ATC which is a 56mm spotter because it's big enough for the purpose I need it for.

All he is missing is a cup holder.

Leupold makes this 15-30X50 spotting scope, my unit used them in Afghanistan and for a while after we got back until we got the Leupold Mk4 spotter just as I was getting out. The 50mm objective didn't really hold it back then and that was 20 years ago, I imagine they can do some pretty great things with modern optical design so I don't see the 50mm objective as a downside.

Selling so soon isn't usually a good sign, but it depends on the circumstances. What's going on?

Quick review? In the market for new spotting glass.

Quick review? In the market for new spotting glass.

Glass is surprisingly good. Eyebox is pretty good to get behind, FOV is great the reticle is really nice and out of the way. The reticle is has a 6x and 36x version which is nice it still usable at 6x. The controls are easy to turn with just the right amount of resistance. For me I though I would like the cage for extra protection but didn't have anything I wanted to mount to it and the non cage version fit better in my pack due to being less bulky.

Wait so it’s not FFP ?

 

[Raptorman2014]

Wait so it’s not FFP ?

It is, even at 6x you can see the reticle. Not my best picture but you you get what it looks like at 36x. The building is about 4200 yards away.

 

[Stag556]

Any more hands on experience with this spotter? I carry a Leupold MK4 spotter and when I add a LRF to the Badger slick cage, it gets rather bulky. Just wondering if this this is a viable and more “packable” option. I have an inverted H32 in the MK4 now and the MIL XT reticle seems appealing.
