Overview
The Archangel X2 is Monstrum's 1-10x first focal plane LPVO, built around ED glass and a true 1x sight picture for shooters who want one optic that covers close-range engagement and longer shots on the same rifle.
A 10x zoom ratio on an LPVO is unusual at this price point, and Monstrum leans on that spread as the selling point rather than any single spec. Because it is first focal plane, the reticle subtensions hold true at every magnification, which matters more as the ratio widens. Extra low dispersion glass and an anti-reflective coating are aimed at keeping the image sharp across that range rather than just at the low end.
- 1-10x first focal plane magnification
- Extra low dispersion glass with anti-reflective coating
- 1/2 MOA or 0.2 MIL click adjustments
- Integrated piggyback mount base
Who it's for
Shooters who want a single rifle scope for both close quarters and mid range work, moving between a red dot style 1x and a more magnified view without swapping optics. Not the choice for someone who only shoots one distance band and would be better served by a simpler, lighter scope.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- True 1x sight picture at the low end
- 10x top magnification for longer shots
- ED glass for reduced chromatic aberration
- Piggyback mount for a secondary optic
- No published rating or review data to confirm real-world durability
- Wide zoom ratio scopes are typically heavier than fixed-power options
Performance notes
The first focal plane design means the reticle scales with magnification, so holdover marks read correctly whether you are at 1x or 10x. The piggyback mount and integrated base are meant to simplify attaching a secondary optic without adding a separate mounting system.
