Maven RS.5 4-24x50
Who tested: Rokslide field eval (2022-01) — read the original write-up, which is the source of record. Who structured it: Optics Intel. We extract outcomes and cite; the testing labor is theirs.
Sample size: 1 (single serial number; process filmed) — evidence about this unit, not a verdict on every unit shipped.
Stage-by-stage record
| Tracking / RTZ | Fail | adjustment under 2%, but the zero shifted 0.2–0.3 mil three times before the drops |
|---|---|---|
| 18″ drops | Fail | first 18″ drop produced a 21.5-inch shift; later 18″ drops shifted ≈0.4–0.5 mil |
| 36″ (single) | Fail | modified 6/12/18/36″ progression — shifted at 12″ and above |
| 3×36″ | Fail | shifts on almost every one of 30 drops across both evals |
| Long-term | Pass | single truck-ride zero check held — within an otherwise failed eval |
Mount setup
Rings/mount: remounted 3× at 16, 18, and 22 in-lb — same results each time. Ring torque: not stated in source. No torque caveat flagged in the source.
Notes
Mount eliminated (three torques, same result); a control Nightforce held through fifteen 36″ drops on the same rifle. Optical/parallax issues also reported.
