Specs on paper are interesting. Exit pupil is a little small but not bad.
Anyone look through one? Glass quality ok? How do turrets feel?
Friggin spelling... atibal.

Why main question is whether it will take semi auto abuse or not.
Ive broken several LPVOs on 5.56 and Grendels over the years.

Yea that's a concern of mine too.. I can't really find much useful information about durability. For its feature set though it's... average price honestly. I'm really after a side parallax to help eliminate error at distance shooting squirrel sized or smaller targets. I can live with a 1-8 with that 1 feature. If everything were a consistent normal not rodent size I would just keep the what i got because it's not broken yet.
People run lpvo on a not semi-auto? Friggin weird
What ones have you broken so far? If it's all of them, that is a pretty even playing field imo

Its frustrating to get a scope dialed-in with a proven zero, then enjoy whacking steel with it from 175-800yds as if its a video game, then all of a sudden, you start missing and questioning yourself, only to see the reticle is canting with each shot, or the ocular piece is rattling around.
I really love those 1-4x24 GRSC scopes because of the generous and clear field of view, the excellent reticle, but they just break. Thats why they were discontinued.
The 1-6x24 GRSC however is built like a tank.
GRSC had a 1-10x scope that Atibal knocked-off, made in the same factory.

I had their 1-8 SFP on a 12" Grendel. Probably 500 rounds. I knocked the upper off my bench, landed on the top turret, took it to the range and tested it. It was off about 3/4" high and right. Rezeroed and never had an issue.
Sold the scope to a friend and he put it on a 18" Grendel about 2 years ago...he would have let me know if there were problems with it.
I've been thinking about the 1-12 since it came out...just like my Vortex Hog Hunter too much for hunting hogs based my blind and feeder setups.
