Calculated from the sensor's pixel pitch and the lens focal length, for clear air.

ATN quotes 1,100 m, 2.8× our figure, because makers usually measure against a person’s full height rather than their width. Why the numbers differ

02Pros and cons

From the published specs, not owner reports.

For it
  • Smooth 60 Hz picture on a running animal
  • 9 h of battery, 81st-longest of 344 here
  • Warranty: 5 years
  • ~$995, well under the ~$3,000 typical for riflescopes here
Against it
  • Sensitivity (NETD) not published
  • Built-in battery, so no swapping in the field
  • Short 19 mm lens: a wide view, but less reach than a 50 mm scope
  • No rangefinder, so you judge distance by eye
  • Entry-level 256×192 sensor, with less detail than a 640
  • No waterproof rating published
