PRODUCT FEATURE SWAT PRISMATIC 10x30
MTC’s second SWAT Prismatic model – a 10×30 that has earned the nickname ‘Atom’, due to is diminutive size.
Like its (slightly) larger 12×50 sibling, the all-new 10×30 SWAT Prismatic is a little scope featuring some big differences. SWAT stands for Super Wide-Angle Technology, meaning the Atom offers of a much wider field of view than a conventional 10x magnification scope. What’s more, it harnesses its highly detailed sight picture courtesy of an ultra-short eye relief and a concertina rubber eyecup, making it particularly suitable for low- recoil rimfires and air rifles. Despite its small dimensions – it measures just 123mm from the 30mm objective to the eyepiece – the 10×30
SWAT PRISMATIC 12x50
With its short eye relief, the SWAT Prismatic ‘sits back’ further than any other scope, leaving plenty of mounting rail to allow headache-free attachment of all kinds of Night Vision fittings. Its multi-faceted SCB2 crosshair can also be illuminated at the push of a button, and comes with brightness control to suit all lighting situations. The field of view from its 50mm front lens is three times more than a conventional scope. Or to put it another way: here is a 12x magnification scope that has the same field of view as a ‘conventional’ scope dialled into just 4x power.
The 12×50’s light- gathering credentials are also impressive. It sucks in more light than any comparable 12x scope, making it a top choice for shooting in low-light situations.
Size-wise, the stacked prismatic lenses of the

is anything but short on features. Its external elevation and windage turrets not only offer the much-favoured MIL- rated click adjustments, they are lockable and feature resettable verniers. Near-perfect optical centring can also be achieved courtesy of the Atom’s tilt-adjustable mount (supplied).
Besides a quick-focus eyepiece, there’s side parallax adjustment to eliminate aiming errors at closer ranges, with adjustment down to 6 metres. The Atom sports a simplified MD5 mil-dot reticle, which can also be illuminated to one of 10 brightness settings.
SWAT Prismatic 10x30
SWAT 12×50 means it measures up at just 156mm – significantly shorter than, say, MTC’s more conventional Mamba model (at 370mm).
Complete with MTC’s magnetic flip cover and a new mounting system that features integral tilt adjustment to achieve close to optimum optical zero – before even dialling-in the scope’s turrets – the SWAT Prismatic is a scope that’s totally unlike any other available in the shooting optics world.
