Is 10 X the maximum for prism scopes?I have not seen any with higher magnification.-Y
I know the Immersive Optics company is based in the UK. Does anyone know where the scopes are manufactured?

I have the 10x24 Immersive Optics scope on my Cricket II Tactical and can say that it really exceeds my expectations! I was a bit worried about having such little eye relief (roughly 1/2 inch) on this particular model, but even with wearing eyeglasses, it's not that big of a deal on a PCP. Let me state the obvious - the field of view is massive when looking through this scope. The optics are super-clear. The clicks feel really good (I wish there were not caps though). The three mounts are all very useful. The long one was needed on my cricket II tactical. Kalibrgun ends the slots in the scope rail about one inch from the rear of the rail.

Does the inherent design of the lenses make high powered, 24X and up, not doable?-Y
From my limited research most are in the 1-4X some recent models are 5x. Immersive is the only one I have seen at 10X and 14X.
I did not see the dedal stalker mentioned. Expensive but 6x prism with 3.5 inch eye relief and parallax to 5 meters. I believe dedal worked with edgun on this.I have been using it on my hw50 and it’s been really fun to shoot. Very very clear, and large eyebox. I think edgun west has in stock. https://dedalnvoptics.com/en/catalog/daytime-riflescopes/red-dot-sights/stalker/

It was lovely at 50 yards, but even though it "focuses" to 7, I found it literally unusable at ten. It wasn't just the crazy-thin usable DOF (maybe 1-2") but even when perfectly adjusted, it never seemed crisp. It actually made my brain hurt trying to see what was there. My $99 Bugbuster blows this away at short range. I'm waiting to hear back from Wes, if the others he has are like this, since there's a slim chance it's just a defective scope. Still, but I'm not hopeful.Again, absolutely lovely at 50 yards, so I probably was asking too much from a fixed scope. I really like the overall concept of these, so I want to try a 10x version, if it's usable for close pesting.

I have tested close adjustment, but admit that I have not shot it much at close range. I got a used 14x50 and can say it has a different feel from the 10x40 and the x24.I probably mentioned this already, but the 10x40 is my favorite of the 3 IO scopes I have... more later on this 👍
