Swarovski at 80 20-60 questions

[firemanthornman]

Anyone have any experience with the older Swarovski at80's? I have a chance to get one. I have a vortex diamondback spotter now and am looking to upgrade. What's a good price point on them? Any input would be great. Thanks.

HD or non HD? ATS80 HD 20-60 I'd say range $1700-1900 ish. With 25-50 might go $2100 ish. Non HD will bring $300 less give or take.

I sold my ATS80 HD 20-60 for $1650 plus a trade that brought $250 when sold so mine went for $1900. It also had a Creedmoor Sports stay on zippered soft case that went with it.

Its the older non HD.

They’ve sold the HD and non HD side by side since day one so saying they are non HD doesn’t necessarily point to how old they may be. Tech support has told me coatings never changed in any of the S series bodies over time so if it’s older date wise but in great shape there really isn’t much negative to being older.

Copy. Thanks Bob.

If it's an AT 80 (grey body) it's going to be heavy.

Yeah I missed you said just AT. I assumed an S series. If it is the older AT my pricing isn’t applicable and are completely different scopes.

Yeah, big difference between AT and ATS. Save up for an ATS if possible. Look through my post history I’ve given some insight and used a lot of Swaro glass.
