    New "RDS" optic about to hit the market

    The Cthulhu reticle of the Aimpoint is enough for me to pay attention to what is coming. If it can come close on battery life I'll be happy. Even 1 year would be nice.

    Think for yourself. Question authority.

    So is this thread about Aimpoints, Eotechs, or the Leupold new-hotness?

    Evidently there is a screen grab somewhere from a VTAC video that purports to show one.

    My eyes -- combination of an Aimpoint and magnifier is useless. Just the Aimpoint is fine for quick and dirty, but a problem when shooting groups at 100 or 200 yards.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Somebody mentioned wanting an EO style reticle, which them caused me to steer things off into EI Tech reticla land.

    If this new optic is etched then it should work regardless if the power goes dead or not. If it's got a useful reticle, it's tough, and good run time, then it's likely to be a winner.

    How's that?

    Thanks for the heads up. Found this on Google:
    http://www.weaponevolution.com/forum...EW-Leupold-LCO

    And now that I know it's named the LCO, here's more talk/detail:

    Leupold is about to dump such a beast on the market. Astigmatism sufferers rejoice!

    Aww yes!

    I like it!

    My guess would be that the reticule would be more Prismatic than Eotech (minuscule difference, i know), especially if it's etched like everyone seems to think it will be.

    I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on a Leu Prismatic last month.

    Yeah that was me mid-Summer when these guys took a thread all Chtulu. They wouldn't tell me. I had to look up. It's a thing.
