Or Dual Focal Plaine. FWIW, I took the gamble and pre-ordered the Dual Focal Version. It literally ticks every single box....on paper. Fingers crossed they deliver everything I am hoping for.
Rifle Scopes ZCO 2-16

I pre-ordered a FFP. Fingers crossed this is an amazing hunting rifle scope.
34mm and 24oz +, we’ll see how it sells.
The irony in these discussions is rich. The hole is, above all else, a weight hole. The secondary component of this hole is utility- specifically field useability of the reticle throughout the entire mag range. Yet, the majority of voices in these threads discussing new product development, targeted at addressing this hole, are most willing to compromise on these two factors. Dunno.

Ding, Ding.
The dual reticle solves your reticle usability concern. As for weight, a zeiss V8 1.8-14 weighs the same and absolutely has its uses and pretty decent sales numbers.
You don’t know whether anything you just said is true.
I'd like a 5-6Xish erector that's under under 30 oz scope 2- 3 on the bottom end ~18ish for the hunting crowd. I know the NV guys want lower on the bottom end but that is not my wheelhouse, others have chimed in on that area. - Richard
Everyone wanted under that weight until VTX accomplished it with their 4.5-22 LHT FFP, than we have had complaints that it did not feel high quality or durable.
I love my NXS 2.5-10x42 for hunting, but it just needs slightly better glass and a little more magnification. It's running around 20oz.
Anything over 3x or so on the bottom end would be a hard sell. I do have a atacr 4-16x42 and will be replacing it again as I just can't seen to get over the smaller nxs 2.5-10x42.

These lower weights are accomplished with Second Focal Plane scopes all day long, accomplishing it with a premium FFP is more difficult if you want performance and durability over weight
I don't care about your feelings.
It's not my feelings, I'm referring to a dozen or so customer conversations.
That makes sense. I just would like something like the TT315H with a better reticle and a few Oz lighter.
Keep in mind the 27.8 oz of the TT includes tenebraex scope caps. So it’s really a ~25oz scope. The 3-15 Tangent is currently the king IME, but I’d love to see ZCO in this space.
That's with the caps? I did not realize that...
Its the story of my life, what I want built/made seems to never line up with what sells to the masses.
A scope with a 56mm objective, 2-18 power, good simple mrad Xmas tree style reticle that's illuminate and capped windage with locking elevation would be awesome for hunting, gas guns, and nrl hunter matches especially if the scope is lighter weight.
If the new T6Xi was sub 25 oz, it would be close to perfect. I even prefer the MSR2 ret. for a multi use scope.
Nah 2-3x is perfect for bottom end with thermal
People that need lower can go with a 1-10
*cough* 2.5-15x *cough* 6x erector *cough, cough*
I don’t think that’s just weight. The AMG was 5.5oz heavier and nobody said it felt cheap. The 3-24 March is 19oz and I’ve never heard anyone say it felt cheap. Gracious, I’ve only ever seen pics of that Vortex, and it LOOKS cheap, too. I didn’t need a press release to tell me it’s made in the Philippines, that thing looks more Filipino than Manny Pacquiao.
Found this thread coincidentally.
I´m actually looking for a crossover scope for my new AR build.
Is there something coming worth waiting for?
If so, I could use a stopgap for a while.
Austria, are you listening?
Probably not right away, but
Just get a nx8 or zco420 toFound this thread coincidentally.

Hold you over
Most things worth waiting for, anyhow...Unfortunately everything takes time
I emailed ZCO yesterday and the international sales manager answered me today.
The scope will be around the middle of August on the market.

Guessing this is the 1.7-12x50 model?
A North American based version with some changes will be in the future.
I have a VTX LHT FFP. It feels cheap because the mag ring is stupidly stiff and the illumination nipple is silly.
Is this going to happen or just a dream?
Speculation not a good thing

Man oh man, if only this were available right now. I just settled for a ATACR 4-16x50 to hold me over but I'd much rather have the new hotness that fits my needs better. @CSTactical I am assuming you will take deposits for pre-orders once this is a go for the US market?
We don't take deposits on a product that is not available yet, I've had a running list for once this scope is actually being produced for the North American market though. I'll add you to it
If I'm not already on the list, then please update it one more time for me.We don't take deposits on a product that is not available yet, I've had a running list for once this scope is actually being produced for the North American market though. I'll add you to it
