Many thanks for the info I love my MTC and its AMD reticle it's clear and uncluttered,
this makes it simple to see targets in dark forest's.
I have had a couple of good scores in HFT (not as many as I would like) but have not been able to repeat them this year some of this was due to the HW100KT having to go and visit the gun doctor (can highly recommend Mike Upton of Airguntune.co.uk)
but that aside I was thinking of changing the zero and see what difference this would make.
I have always set my zero to 35 yards but many of my shooting bud’s set theirs to 25 or 30 yards and was curious to hear what others were doing with this scope.
So grateful for all information.
I have been using one for the past few weeks, very user friendly scope, nice image and feels well made.
It has a bigger depth of field than I am used to, ie more clearer targets in HFT mode - (my reason for buying one in the first place).
I have it mounted with 2 sportsmatch mounts in front of the turrets and have not had any problem. It's a little higher than you could have it with ultra low mounts, but that pays benefits with a flatter distant trajectory anyway which suits me using my longer range (40y ish) zero that I have used for the past few years.
I've shot 3 comp courses with it so far, 2 of them in really dark woodland conditions, absolutely no issues with the small front objective. So far, I'm liking it

Staffordshire Custom Rifles - Maverick & MTC Connect
I changed my hft scope to A leup mk4 2.5-8 X 32 as my connect wouldn't fit on my new gun. I was also very impressed with the image quality
The leup has amazing glass but for me the connect is better suited to HFT. The reason is the ret. The SCB reticle is perfect for the discipline. The smaller objective increases DOF and the fact that the eye is so close to the scope ensures repeatable head position and minimises parallax. Also 10X magnification is perfect for me.
I'm sure others will disagree and that is fine BUT scopes are subjective and this is my opinion only. To say i'm looking forward to getting the connect on my gun again is an understatement (got a HW100 to fit it on).
In the meantime a viper is on the gun and the leup is for sale
MTC, Gary and Sammie did a brilliant job with this scope.
I had a look through one the other day and was very impressed with the ret (AMD??), the clarity and depth of field.
I noticed a small amount of parallax error on close targets but not on far ones.

Looked through one today and all I can say is "wow" !
