ATN x-sight II HD anybody try one of these?

[seez52]

I'm thinking about trying one of these. Reviews are hit or miss, most give it good marks. Has some neat features for both day and night shooting.

I have one on order ATM, can let you know what I think in a few weeks when it comes in if you like.

Looks pretty neat. They have gone through a previous version so the current model should be better. I was thinking about the 3x-14x

Finally was able to get mine mounted and sighted in today.  It's going to take a little getting used to. Zeroing it is a piece of cake. One or two shots and you're done. 

The night vision is really good if you have a decent illuminator.  The light that comes with it is just so so.

Lots of settings and do dads to fool with. We'll see how it pans out.

Took it out yesterday to check the 100 yard results. It was shooting almost 2 inches high. I moved it down to about an inch and quarter high which usually works well for me. Best group I was able to muster was about 5/8 inch. Should be good for a yote or two around here. Now if I can just get some field time.

Have you linked it to your phone or tablet yet what do you think about that option?

I did connect it up once. It sort of eats through batteries and I have not decided how I'm going to remedy that, and the wifi off the scope makes them go faster. The time that I did use the phone app it worked great. This was before I had it mounted. Using the buttons on the scope to fiddle with the settings is a little tedious. I think many of those can be done via the app, which will be nice.

I tried some rechargeable batteries but it gave me a low battery indication right from the start. Not sure if my batteries were not fully charged or what. Rechargeable batteries don't put out quite the same amount of voltage as lithium which they recommend. The external battery pack is probably the way to go.
