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

RIX quotes 3,000 m, 2.4× 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
Built-in laser rangefinder that feeds the ballistic calculator
Takes 18650 batteries you can swap in the field

Against it

~$5,899, well above the ~$3,000 typical for riflescopes here
Zoom past 3× is digital and gets blurry
