Hi Jim. Good video about the Alpex most informative one I’ve seen. Got mine today looks a lovely piece of kit. Couple of questions. The supplied batteries say ‘non rechargeable’ but you have to put one in the unit to charge up first time am I correct? Then can you charge the second one ? Don’t understand why the say non rechargeable. When you have zeroed the reticule does it re-centre. Asking these questions before I start to set it up, don’t want to bugger it up. Keep up the videos Jim good stuff. 👍

Hi mate thanks for your comment 👍. Firstly I'm not sure about the battery as I haven't used mine because in built in battery is more than enough for what I need. However leave that question with me and I will find out for you. As for zeroing I found the reticle didn't self centralise if you use the first profile (A) but it does with the other profiles. I personally use D and E as I use the scope on 2 different rifles and have no problems with them. I believe hikmicro are looking into doing a software update so hopefully it with sort that issue out mate. When I find out yhe software is being done I will let you know. You may also notice the PIP box may not be quite in line if you use it with the main crosshair but don't worry you can still use the crosshair in the PIP to put on your target and it will still be the same as the central one. Like I said this hopefully will also be addressed in the updates. Hope this helps 👍

Hi Paul. Firstly thanks for watching mate and secondly yes I zeroed mine on the base mag. Now I was only zeroing at 50 yards so I could see the target fine and zooming in it remained the same. Now I haven't tried it on my .223 as yet so I will probably need to go up to 4x mag for this so I will be interested to see how it performs. What have you got yours fitted to?

I was going to get another ATN 5x 4k for my .243 but this has made me question it as I like the fact that it looks like a normal scope and not a tube and box like the ATN ? Got me thinking.

Hi mate thanks for that. The mag goes from 3.5 -14× zoom. It's perfect for rabbiting both day and night. Just bare in mind that when you use the zoom one click round takes it half way approx 7x mag and one more click takes it to max magnification. If you're familiar with pulsars c50 you can zoom in and out slowly by constantly clicking the zoom toggle round, wear the zoom on the Alpex is a smooth progression zoom it does it in a couple of clicks. So it starts with base mag then say middle magnification and full power. Hope this makes sense mate.

Hi Johnny. Don't worry about the new update it caught me out as well. Basically the way the mag works now is exactly the same as before but for some reason Hik have decided to change the format of the way the mag shows now. It still goes up the same as it did before but it just looks like it jumps from the base mag to half way up the magnification setting. Why they have done this I don't know, so yes it looks different to how mine was but it's not, it's just numbered differently now. Hope this makes sense 👍

When it comes to scope rings it really depends on the individual. I use hawke quick release high mounts with all my scopes. And they are all for a picitinny rail. I have never had an issue with them. Some people like the one piece mounts. As for which height mount- low medium or high that is up to you and what one feels the best height when looking down the rifle. Hope this helps

I have these scopes my menu is different help ????

Thanks mate and I have it on good authority that Hik are sorting out the lack of reticles and the zoom function next month via an update which I can't wait to try. 👍
