It is 2.95 in (75 mm) long, weighs under 8 oz (227 g), adjusts in 1\/4 MOA clicks with 80 MOA of windage and elevation travel, gives a 38 ft field of view at 100 yards (12.7 m at 100 m), and runs up to around 29,000 hours on a CR2032 cell across 13 brightness settings, three of them night-vision compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOptically this is the same scope as the black 3X; the difference is the coyote finish, which matches tan handguards and stocks. What it shares with the rest of the MicroPrism line is the thing that matters most to a particular group of shooters: the reticle is etched into the glass rather than projected as an LED, so an eye with astigmatism resolves it sharply instead of seeing the smear or starburst that makes red dots frustrating for so many people.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the Flat Dark Earth 3X with red illumination.

A prism scope's reticle is etched into the glass and viewed through the optic's own focusing system, so it is resolved by the same corrected optical path as the target, whereas a red dot projects an LED that an astigmatic eye commonly sees as a smear, flare or double image.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich calibre is the ACSS Raptor 5.56\/.308 Yard reticle calibrated for?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ACSS Raptor 5.56\/.308 Yard reticle is calibrated for both 5.56 and .308, and its ranging and holdover marks are laid out in yards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the Flat Dark Earth version optically different from the black one?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The Flat Dark Earth Primary Arms SLx 3X MicroPrism has the same optical and mechanical specification as the black version, and only the exterior finish differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDoes the Primary Arms SLx 3X MicroPrism work if the battery dies?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The reticle is etched into the glass rather than projected, so it remains fully visible and usable with the illumination switched off or the battery flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat mount does the SLx 3X MicroPrism need?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SLx 3X MicroPrism ships with its own ruggedised mounting system offering 8 height options on the mini-prism footprint, so no separate mount needs to be bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat does the ACSS Raptor reticle actually do?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ACSS Raptor combines a precise centre chevron with bullet drop holdovers so you aim off rather than dial for distance, ranging stadia that estimate the distance to a target of known size, moving-target leads, and wind holds either side of centre.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Primary Arms","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58434897051992,"sku":"PA-SLX-3XMP-RAPTOR-5YP-FDE","price":399.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/2005\/3592\/files\/primary-arms-slx-3x-microprism-acss-raptor-556-308-yard-fde-1.jpg?v=1789007532","url":"https:\/\/opticstrader.co.uk\/products\/primary-arms-slx-3x-microprism-acss-raptor-556-308-yard-fde","provider":"Optics Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
