Just received 10 of these and I am really impressed so far. Will shoot it this weekend but highlights are
1. All aluminum housing like the other Steiners. Very robust unit in an ocean of plastic commercial stuff.
2. I had a lunch with steiner last fall when this was in development and gave them some advice on the mount. They listened! 1.5 inch height and a strong lever mechanism....like a dbal mount on steroids. Balances perfect under the unit.
3. Great image quality @4x and menu full vis at that range. This thing will satisfy on a lpvo.
4. MAP on this bad boy is $3999....for a 640! At that price would make an excellent second clip on for a smaller rifle if you can accept the weight would a fantastic clip-on/ spotter combo. I don't expect our inventory to last long.
Fyi....I installed the vortex flip cap....they ship with a tethered cap.
@4x. Distance to VADER is like 5 yds but just displaying pixelation level at 4x
