Rifle Scopes New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

[LibertyOptics]

Hiders,

At long last, the very first shipment of production models is on the way! Not a big shipment, so you guys have dibs.

We sold a pre-production model online here a few months ago, now the new guys are enroute.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Quick specs:</span>

4-16x50 FFP MRAD illuminated with X1 reticle (same as in the 3-18x42 illuminated)

Exposed 1/10 mil knobs with ~80moa of travel, secondary impact indicator

30mm tube!

Side focus, digital illumination

More conventional, lighter weight, many of you have asked about this scope.

MAP is $1599, <span style="font-weight: bold">special introductory price of $1459</span>, added to the website under "New Products" just now.

Thanks!

Scott

Does this scope also have a zero stop like the 3-18x50?

Also is it 10 mils per revolution on the elevation turret?

And if you could please tell us the weight, as iam highly interested in this for a 308 gas gun

Scott, do you have the dimensions of the sub-tensions in the reticle?

Any pics per chance? Sounds awesome

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Scott,

What is meant by 'secondary impact indicator'? I see it has the x-mas tree reticle... are they talking about being able to see the splash/impact and correct off the 'tree'? Thats new market-speak to me!

TIA,

Monte

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Memilanuk,

I believe what he is talking about is a ring on the elevation turret that can be moved without using the turret. I have one of these on my 3.5-18 IOR and I used it for my second zero when I was switching the scope between two rifles.

I could be wrong and I'm sure Scott will correct me if I am.

Now that would be sweet!

Scott, anybody... got any close-up pics of this kind of turret?

Got these off the LO website:

The little nub you see sticking out is the indicator you can move

This is a side view:

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Thanks for the backup, guys.

CrazyDonkey is right on, the Secondary Impact Indicator is a movable ring that allows you to have a 2nd preset zero mark.

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

No problem Scott, love my IOR and used that second indicater a lot.

Never used a IOR so not sure how the secondary impact indicator works. Does it work as a zero stop? Explanation please.

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Scott, do you still have any of these in stock? Drop me a PM if you do. Thanks Powereng.

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Is it possible to post some pics of this scope, either here or on your site?

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

excellent glass fellas, and scott it top notch. your gonna like these

 

[Flyingbullseye]

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Any information what the size dimensions of the half and full mil subtensions are?

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

All the current IOR MRAD reticles are rooted in the MP-8 A5, pioneered in the 3-18x42. The new "X1" just adds windage holdovers in the reticle. Line widths are 0.1 mils, as is the center dot.

I have a pdf of the A5 reticle I can email to anyone who wants it

Re: New IOR 4-16x50 FFP MRAD incoming

Does this scope have a zero stop? If it uses the same turret as my 3.5-18x50 does i will have to get one of these.

What is the weight of one of these?

Looks like a nice scope.

I was hoping for full reticle illumination like the 35mm models.

The 2.5-10x42 FFP (30mm)is full line, just like the 3.5-18x50 (35mm) and 1-10x (35mm). The 4-16 (30mm), 6-24 (35mm) , and 12-52x (40mm) are center dot only.

There is not a pattern here. I do think if their is any migration at all, it will be toward the center dot.

Thank you for the clarification on the models and illumination of each Scott!

Why do you feel that the migration is towards center dot only?

Because that seems to be the illumination pattern that generates the most positive feedback.
