And that Shepherd is a 1x8! 
Well, I was suprised that we came up with 3 anyways! The Athlon Cronus, the Shepard, and I was perusing Athlon and found this one... The Midas BTR Gen2 HD. 1-6, 18.1oz, HD, and has the hold overs. $529.99 new and Gr8fuldoug has an open box for (with full warranty) for $459.99. Looks pert near the same as the Chronos without the UHD glass. I may grab one for my AR.

@OkieStubble, I'll be interested to know, once you use what ever scope you pick at 1X with an illuminated reticle, if you still feel you need that offset Delta Point.
@OkieStubble There is another. A disturbance in the force if you will. It's only a 1x-4x and its price is silly but...
I give you the Raytheon Elcan Specter.

So that's 4 but the Specter is just an honorable mention because it's hovering around $2k...

SpecterDR 1x/4x
The Elcan SpecterDR 1-4 is the world’s first dual role optic combat scope. The Specter DR 1-4 switches instantly from a 4x magnified sight to a 1x CQB sight with the throw of a lever.

That it does, Rob, but if you need a short to medium range scope and are in a situation where it might get run over by a tank the Specter is the scope!Man, that thing looks hideous.

Elcan is good stuff for sure. It still looks like it belongs on a Borg laser cannon.
