TruGlo is best known for fantastic pistol sights, with Tritium and Fiber Optic illumination. They work great day and night. And are easily one of the contenders for the title belt in that category.
This year at SHOT 2018, TruGlo stepped into the riflescope arena by introducing the uber-affordable Intercept Series.
The Intercept Series from TruGlo.

MSRP is $200.
The Intercept is a hunting scope, at a price every hunter can afford. At $200, you get an illuminated reticle, in either a duplex or a BDC configuration. Power options are 3-9x or 4-12x. These will be shipping at the end of the first quarter. Unlikely to dominate PRS, this is still a fantastic value.

What is the focal plane?
3rd?
2nd Focal Plane. On a Duplex Reticle there is no need for FFP (you are just shrinking the cross-hairs unnecessarily). The BDC version is calibrated at max power (where you would actually use the hold-over) and has subtensions at 2, 4, 6, and 8-MOA so the drop can be calculated for any caliber. Both reticles are available in the the Strelok Pro ballistic App.
