    What would be a slight step up from .

    Athlon Ares ETR and Delta Javelin 4.5-30x56 are the next logical step up. Telson TM 5-25x56 might be as well, but I need to spend more time with it. ILya

    Rifle Scopes What scopes have all these features?

    Generally speaking, if you really want ZCO... it might be worthwhile to just look around see if you can find a used 4-20x50 ZCO. It is an excellent design. As far as the more mid-range designs go, you should take a look at Telson Victory 5-32x56. It checks most of your boxes. Ditto for the...

    C35 is OEM'ed by Guide, but some of the image processing and software is unique to Steiner. ILya

    Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!

    The guys from Annex sent them to me. Check with them to see if they have more or where they got them. These should be off the shelf items

    Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!

    The production mount for C35 Gen2 from Annex is finally here. I spent a few days with it and so far so good. It clamps just fine on every rail I have. https://darklordofoptics.locals.com/post/7177592/steiner-c35-gen2-mount ILya

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    You did tag me... My life got a bit busier than I'd like, so I am not on here as much as I used to be, but I do check notifications regularly. ILya

    Optic question

    That is very true. In terms of the Integrix, the early models are built in Taiwan, but what appears to be a new OEM. They are also building the new Mepro scopes. It is not entirely clear to me if Leapers owns it or has partial interest in it. It sounded like they are more than just a...

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    I have not yet tested the 2-10x Mark5HD. I pinged John a couple of weeks ago, but I have not received a reply yet. Generally, if my math is right, it should have enough depth of field on 2x to use it up close and personal without needing to do anything with parallax. The basic idea with a...

    Integrix scopes have nothing to do with LOW. ILya

    Optic question

    Integrix is a new sub-brand for them. They plan to eventually make them in the US and they are looking very promising. ILya

    1-10 sfp lpvo options

    I'd probably pick up a PA PLxC 1-8x24 SFP with the fiber reticle. They have some blems right now for right around $1k.

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    That’s not really something I can (or want to) control. I have seen people shill. I have seen people sounds like shills because they can’t write (this might piss Trent off, but he is a big boy and he’ll live), so they use AI with utterly predictable results. Ilya

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    I have one of their products and i have reviewed it. I have seen other models, but have not reviewed them yet in any sort of detail. I will as time allows. I was involved in the reticle development for them, so I have seen a lot of the prototypes as well. It took them some time to bring...

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    As I posted earlier, I know the guys behind Telson and they are good people. It is not the Countersniper/Arken-type thing. ILya

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    It was on my list, but we ran out of time. I'll have to have Scott back for another one. The gyst of it is that more competition is a good thing. If it wasn't for the small guys popping up and trying to something a little different, even if it is with an overall similar design, the larger...

    I have no problem addressing it, but I am about to kick off a livestream where it will likely come up. If you have time tune in. We will get rolling in about fifteen minutes. ILya

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    Telson is pretty new. They had their coming out party earlier this year. I know the guys behind it pretty well. They say they are here to stay, but naturally noone knows with 100% certainty. They seem like pretty serious people, so I assume they mean what they day. The 5-32x56 is not an LOW...
