I am kicking off a test of the new FDN 17x 3.2-17x50 scope with the JVCR reticle from US Optics.

This is a first look with my initial impressions of the scopes. Stay tuned for follow-ups as I spend more time with this design.

Here is the exact model I am lookign at: https://alnk.to/bE9U0tk

Note: I miscalculated the apparent FOV of the FDN17x. It should be around 15.5 degrees, so right around the same as the new March eyepiece.

Another note: black scope does not stand out all that well in front of a black t-shirt. Lesson learned.

I start off with a few minutes of background info.
Discussion of the features and controls starts at around 8:30
Optics discussion starts at 17:35
