It is 9.28 in (236 mm) long, weighs 16.95 oz (481 g), and adjusts in 0.1 MIL clicks with 100 MOA of windage and elevation travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst focal plane is the reason to buy this one. Because the reticle grows and shrinks with the image, the ACSS Raptor's bullet drop holdovers, ranging stadia and wind marks measure correctly at 3x, at 5x and at 8x, not only at one magnification. Red Dot Bright illumination then drives the centre chevron hard enough that at 1x it works like a red dot sight, which is the compromise most first-focal-plane LPVOs fail to solve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the calibre-specific first-focal-plane option in black.
