This is the best and most amazing 1-8x close quarters combat optic. Nightforce has moved to the top of the LPVO optics. This optic has everything you want with the FC-DMx reticle. When almost as good is not good enough. The NF ATACR1-8x has held the position as the standard for excellence in low power variable tactical optics since its introduction in 2018.
The ATACR 1-8x24 riflescope is designed and built to be the ultimate low-power variable riflescope. The Nightforce ATACR 1-8x24mm features pristine ED glass, low-profile adjustments and legendary bomb-proof reliability. It comes equipped with the FC-DMx reticle, the next step in evolution to the FC-DM reticle. This reticle has a thin, 4 MRAD segmented circle and has the daylight-bright illumination for use in any conditions. The open circle area allows for a clear, unobstructed view of the target, and the 0.2 MRAD center dot provides a precise aiming point. In addition, a 1 MRAD resolution aiming grid allows for simultaneous of elevation and wind with 10 MRAD of elevation.
There are other choices in tactical LPVO optics, for sure. You can spend less. You can spend more. But no matter which scope you look at, you will compare each scope to the ATACR 1-8x. Perfect 1x vision with two-eyes open shooting. Zoom to 8x in an instant with the integrated Power Throw Lever. First Focal Plane. Natural milRAD reticle makes the operator at home.
The ATACR LPVO measures just over 10 inches in length and weighs 21 ounces, with a streamlined profile. The daylight visible, center red dot allows for rapid engagements like a red-dot sight
Unlike a red-dot, however, the 1-8x provides up to 8x zoom to help locate, identify and engage targets at the maximum effective range of most rifles. The intelligent FC-DM first focal plane reticle provides precise hold and hold-off points. The low-profile turrets are capped to prevent accidental adjustment and offer true .1 Mil-Radian adjustment. To aid in fast magnification adjustments, an integrated Power Throw Lever (PTL) is included.
The FC-DMx reticle is an evolution of the FC-DM reticle. Nightforce has maintained the daylight bright illumination that allows for use in any conditions at 1x or high magnification. The FC-DMx segmented circle has been increased in diameter from 2MRAD to 4MRAD and made thinner to maintain the same illuminated area. This open center area allows the user a clear view of the target to make fast, unobstructed shoot/no-shoot decisions. The 0.2MRAD (0.7MOA) center dot provides a precise aiming point when at high magnification. A 1MRAD resolution aiming grid allows for simultaneous holds (elevation and wind) to 10MRAD of elevation. The line labels are placed on both the left and right for fast acquisition, and are located to the outside for a clear view of the target within the grid. The unobstructed view of the target, daylight visible illumination, and intuitive labeling of the FC-DMx provide the user with increased capability for both close and far targets.
