Recognizes a hog at 150 yd26° apparent FOV — how big the view looks

The AGM Rattler V3 25-384 ranks #15 of 53 384-class scopes on image: class-typical image at a class-typical price — image scores bunch tight in this class, so what separates scopes is features and price, not sensor (image 63, class median 62; $1,795 against $1,995). The same HikMicro core sits in the AGM Rattler V2 25-384 at $1,595. At 17.6 oz it's 10 oz lighter than the class-typical scope, and the 5-year warranty follows the scope through a resale.

What the price buys

How we compare →

Computed by comparing this scope against its own siblings on the board — same sensor and lens held equal. Refreshed with every catalog update.

The sharper screen costs +$200

Same picture as the Rattler V2 25-384 at $1,595; the extra buys the 1920×1080 screen over 1024×768 — that's the Rattler V3 line's screen tier. Sharper to look at, no more detail at distance. One caveat: AGM prints ≤20 mK on the cheaper one and ≤15 mK here — a tighter factory tuning of the same sensor, not a different part.

The going rate

Priced $353 over the going rate for its build.

Every dot is the street price of a scope built like this one — same sensor class, a similar lens, no rangefinder. The part of the price above the rate is buying body, screen, and name — not the spec.
