It's a good scope. I really use it a lot.

I recently purchased the 4K Pro 5-20x along with the remote and ABL-1500, and the IR-850 Pro illuminator. Had issues with compass after firmware upgrade and they told me to send it back. They sent me a new one...in their new mossy oak breakup pattern free of charge!!! 5day turnaround, updated the firmware, recalibrated the compass, and am now getting it dialed in on the same style platform you have. This is one slick setup, and will be dropping my 1st buck ever with it very soon...unless he crosses the sights of my crossbow first. Worthy of mention is that the IR-850 Pro illuminator uses the 18650 battery and comes with the charger as well...as well as up to 500 yd range. Great video Brother!!!

Always have quick detach mounts for your scope so that you can use either a different scope or your iron sights, without any issues.

Thanks for the video, I just got back from a hog hunt. Went well I liked the night vision and thermal setup the guide had and now I'm looking into get this. . .

I wish they would have done a simple upgrade for the zoom wheel that allows you to choose the number of "steps" per click. It takes too long for me to go from 5-20, I would love if I could chose if I wanted 1x per click or 5x

Great video, I have been looking for one of these for a while that is affordable. Think this may be the one. Nice deer by the way!

Thanks for doing this video, I have just bought the same scope you had and I was starting to get a bit worried as it was freezing, I have upgraded the firmware and it is a lot better. I got it for air rifle use, I have no interest in full bore shooting any more, I did all that while serving in the British Army, I have two Weihrauch rifles, the 110 and the 100 bullpup, for my type of shooting they are perfect. Thanks again, I am a lot happier knowing the scope is capable of doing what I need.

What is the make and model for that IR Illuminator you used?

Great video sir, I bought one just before deer season ran out here in n/w Louisiana. The learning curve isn't too bad. Once I learned there are things you can do on the app you Can Not do in the scope. Like renaming profiles n such. But once you get the feel of the few idiosyncrasies you will be just fine. May I ask, What app do you use to mirror your cell phone to your TV? I have an LG that I have an app paired via wifi from LG. I can changes channels and all. just no mirror option. Thanks!!

If you'll invite me hog hunting I'll invite you for some great Elk, Mule Deer or Coyote hunting. I've never done any Hog hunting and dream about having a great Hog hunt. Quick question, have you tried the Sharps 25/45 for your Deer and Hog hunting? It has turned out to be my favorite AR-15 cartridge. An absolutely amazing cartridge. I love it so much the I have 3 x 16", 2 x 18", 2 x 20" and 3 x 24" 25/45 Sharps AR's. Just simply an amazing round. You should give it a try. I'll even send you a barrel if you'd like to give it try. 5/8x24 thread for the muzzle device. You should watch Sooch00 Sharps AR-15 Two years later video on KZread. Great video.

Plus prices change and fluctuate. Some people wait out for blackfriday sales on these they get 75-100 off then. If you can't Google a price then that's on you but it's not the reviewers problem. I've seen videos from 6-7 years ago about paying X amount of money and people replying in the comments saying that it cost 100 more than the reviewer said .. lol a lot changes in a day especially after covid. A lot more changes in 6+ years. Nevertheless this video is great review and this is probably the 5th video I've seen on this exact scope.

Here is what they Don't tell you: 1) requires a Micro SD card that is not included. 2) there are multiple directions on the website to download and install firm ware. each set of directions is different and none them work 3) you have to have an IBM computer to interface with the scope. 4) They do not tell you in the booklets (and videos) how to return from the submenus to the main screen.

MicroSD cards are about 10 dollars, for a large one. Firmware is relatively easy to install if you have basic computer skills. You don't have to have an IBM computer specifically. You need a PC, they mean IBM compatible computer which is ALL PC's today. Just not Apple Macs.
