I really like the TA33. I just wish they would make a gen 2
Same size/weight/form factor Move RMR bosses to front of optic Add adjustable diopter Find some lens magic within the last 30 years to get more FOV out of the thing or I'll just wait for a gen2 of the PA microprisms that has GLX glass and a better piggyback, which is 1000x more times likely to happen...

That's impressive OP.
What optic mount do you prefer on your 1-8s? What optic if you wanted more power for a 223/556, or do you believe 8x is all it needs? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Smurgeon: Swarovski 1-8x BRT-i is the best glass I have ever had. The eye relief on 8 power is near 4 inches, the dot is aimpoint bright and works great on the sunniest days in Texas. Only downside is the length at 11". The schmidt and bender 1-8x is equal but for 2k more not worth it to me. NX-8 glass is dog shit, the eye relief is dog shit and the "daylight brightness" they claim to have is dog shit. You should stop slumming it OP and get some real glass. Y'all have some bright ass daylight down in Texas. |

Razor works fine if you don't like the NX8 eyebox and are already fat enough for the weight to not bother you.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RustedAce: SFP is Hitler. In anything but a 1-6 or 1-8 LPVO I’d agree. Kind of nice to have crosshairs you can actually see on 1x if your red dot dies. Edit: 75th Ranger regiment agrees. |

RustedAce - I think I can convince you, beyond a reasonable doubt, your list is incomplete. Shall we agree that the RMR is also a worthy optic

NX8 agree.
TA33, I just could never get used to the toilet paper tube FOV. I like the 4x models quite a bit more, but eye relief sucks. I’ll also second the MK5HD if you need more than 8x.  Attached File |

Up close that helps, but shooting/scanning at distance, both eyes open ain’t going to help the tiny magnified FOV, at least for me. I’ve tried a number of times. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Mister_H: Waiting for the Chinasun poors to just as good you. They don’t make prism scopes….yet. Primary Arms does though, and I have their 1x and 3x as well as a TA33 and my wife has a TA44 ACSS. Hands down, the 1x is a better scope to use than the TA44 ACSS. Shit, the FOV and glass on the TA44 aren’t even as good as the Bushnell Lil’ P. The 3x PA prism is really damned good and I can’t see buying a TA44 over one if I am honest. I really like the TA33, but there are only a few use cases where I would recommend it over the PA SLX 3x. And I’m not ‘the poors’, I can spend what I want to on an optic. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RustedAce: No. TA33 forever. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RustedAce: Originally Posted By Mars87: TA11 is the proven master race of the ACOGs. No. TA33 forever. The TA11 is a fantastic scope if you don’t mind the size and weight…. It would be my first choice on a general purpose rifle that might also be pressed into service as a DMR gun, but the honest truth is that the TA33 is the ACOG most people should have bought instead of that 4X TA31 or one of the lower power non-BDC models. IMO, Trijicon needs to revamp their lowered powered prisms RFN or they will lose that piece of the market to other companies that don’t ask $1k+ for their products. The 1x, 2x, and 3x all need to be made smaller and have larger FOV’s. |

The reticle can be too bright and bloom on a sunny clear day. The cover helps sharpen and adjust the reticle |
