Rifle Scopes Atibal 1-10x FFP

[Rogerthatout]

Reading the article, the only thing that I made a note of concern is the FOV, 100 ft at 100 yd is not the widest view. Other than that, this could certainly be interesting. With 30 MIL in the reticle, this could be usable on a 22LR as well.

I'm trying this scope on my Ruger Custom Shop Competition 10/22. Might even wait for the gray. Love the reticle, I'm doing it. Most 1power reticles suck, this is a winner.

The idea behind a 1-10x scope is not really 3-gun use. It is a further attempt to make a true general purpose scope intended to cover everything from CQB to mid/long range. It is sort of a natural progression that started with 1-4x scopes, then onto 1-6x, then 1-8x. The next logical step is 1-10x. However, based on what I have seen so far, once you get to this erector ratio (at least with currently available options), we should be either looking into designs that incorporate sidefocus like March did, or set it up so that the focsu distance changes with magnification.

I've been watching your Youtube videos recently and was interested in your comments on the LPVO design.
You stated that unless you truly need 1x then a LPVO is not the scope for you.

Is the reason behind the lack of 1-10x options in that there is little market for them and they are hard to make, so manufacturers just don't bother?
I've recently bought a 1-6 LPVO, whilst it's fun to use and suits a particular purpose, I can't help but feel it's still relatively specialized and would find a 2-10 or 2-12 would work almost as well for close range but be much better for general purpose.

IOR does a 1 to 10, not sure I want to spend $2k for a 22LR, but it was a scope they made for 3 gun. 1 power is important to me... 2 or even 1.5 power doesnt work as well with both eyes open when trying to use the glass as a red dot. I looked at about 10 scopes at cabelas yesterday, wasnt to happy with them. They all had BDC reticles which suck for what I'm trying to do. I do want an adjustable paralox ..

Atibal sells the Bobro mount as an option. I bought a Larue LT204 with 35mm rings.

Did that Larue workout for you?

I use two of them (not for this optic), and they're very solid mounts at a very nice price point. They are my go-to for AR height QD mounts these days.

I had a chance to try this scope. I got it with the bobro QD mount, but the cantilever was not good for my flattop rifle, it either pushed scope to far out or to far into my eye relief so I sent it back for a "straight-up" AD mount. The bobro mount was sweet, it just didnt work for my rifle.

I posted a video of the track test I did. I wasnt expecting to get dialing capabilities but I was still curious...so I tested it. I'll be holding over with this glass,

Check out my video



I can tell you this scope does a pretty darn good job at 10 power as I intended to use it. 8 just doesn't allow me to see a postage stamp at 100 yards, but 10 power does.
8 doesnt let me see my groups as clearly as I would like at 100 yards...but 10 does.

I wanted a redot (1X) and 10X in one package and I didnt want to exceed the price of the rifle, in my case a Ruger Custom Shop Competition 10/22. This scope was perfect for what I needed.

Has anyone played with the Atibal XS (SFP version)

Any update/consensus on these now that they’ve been around a little bit longer? Thinking about ordering one.

I got 1 in a trade in an LT204, haven't shot with it yet.

Just checking it out, I'd agree it's better on 10x than 1x. 1x isn't terrible, but it's not like looking thru an Aimpoint.
