Expert Review Visible range through your riflescope means the fastest shooting solution! use the enhancer also! - TRYBE Optics Low-Power Enhanced Optic L.E.O. 1-8x24mm Smart Rifle Scope

My first TRYBE DIMA 1000 experience was in combination with the TRYBE LEO 1-8x24 scope. These two products work with each other, so the yardage read by the DIMA 1000 is displayed directly in the field of view of your riflescope while aiming!
I installed the scope and mount on what is labeled #2, a TRYBE .300 BLK heavy nitride barrel with A2 bird cage. It shoots everything well and is an excellent candidate to use for this test because of the huge trajectory of the subsonic .300 BLK cartridge.
I installed the 1-8 scope using the included TRYBE mount and the accessory picatinny ring half it came with. This is where the DIMA would go, mounted directly on top of my riflescope mount with the 30mm accessory ring half. I bore sighted it across the shop at about 20 yards and later took it out for a spin at the range, sighting it in at 50 yards. The LEO has excellent optics and adjustments and I tell you, it sure looks and performs just like a Strike Eagle with a cooler reticle that can be used for both 223 and 308 cartridge families.
After cleaning I installed the DIMA in its 30mm ring onto the accessory pic rail on top of the scope and leveled it by eye. I removed the little screw covering the integral laser in the objective of the DIMA, just under the emitter and receiving windows of the rangefinder. My scope had been sighted in and I measured the DIMA’s optical center at about 2 inches about the scope’s optical center.
I attached the remote pressure pad the scope came with. On one end of the dual-pigtail cord is a proprietary Usb-c that plugs into a space in the LEO’s reticle brightness turret, and one plug goes to the DIMA, combining in a single pressure pad that can be placed where you prefer. I liked mine in this application forward of the receiver a couple inches on the right side of the handguard. I cleaned a spot, routed wires away from my pivot point and stuck it there.
I used the menu to move the Visible Laser option to REMOTE so when I hold the pressure pad the laser is activated. I made sure the locking screw for the DIMA turret adjustments was loose, then I put the gun in a stable position where I had a wall about 25 yards away. I used a sight in target with one-inch grids and turned the vertical and horizontal adjustments with a coin. They are friction adjustments, and they move smoothly.
At that distance I was a few feet off and I adjusted with a coin to where my laser was two inches over my reticle as seen through my scope. I then remembered to snug my set screw to lock my adjustments. It uses a tiny wrench and needs to be lightly snugged to just a few inch-pounds. Lightly.
I’ve used this system effectively up to 700 yards and have ranged empty cars a lot farther. Not only is it super-functional for the .300 Blackout cartridge and hunting application, but it’s pretty darn amazing to have the distance reading come through your riflescope too!
Since that first outing years ago, we have used the DIMA/LEO scope combination on a great little S&W M&P 15-22 also, augmented by the fun TRYBE Enhancer scope doubler that doubles your riflescope’s magnification from 1-8 to 2-16! Check that review too, it’s an amazing product.
I know now that the DIMA works, but it really shines with a more precision riflescope with much higher magnification.
My Savage 10 McMillan in .308 Winchester now wears a TRYBE R.O.C.S. chassis and TRYBE HIPO 6-24x50 FFPO scope in TRYBE low rings and it shoots great. One side of the R.O.C.S. chassis has an MDT M-Lok accessory weight for even more stability up front, and on the other side it wears a DIMA 1000 in a TRYBE mount on a pic rail section on the front left of the chassis, where I can easily view the yardage display in shooting position by looking at the unit with my left eye. What I’m saying is that while I’m aiming I can press the remote pad or the activation button on the top of the DIMA and get a reading on its rear screen. Hold the pad for continuous scan. Just curious, I weighed the weight and the DIMA with ring and they weighed approximately the same.
My best AR wears a Helix-6 barrel in .223 Wylde and a Nightforce NX8 4-32x50 and the best parts TRYBE can make, including Magnite charging handle and handguard and a crisp TRYBE trigger. I have a DIMA on this important gun also. This gun goes long and it’s fun to use the DIMA at great distances with my very best ammo.
Since 7.62x39 is a lot less expensive than .300 BLK, we may transition #2’s optics to a TRYBE upper in that cartridge.
People range over 1000 yards with the DIMA in good conditions.
I think the DIMA 1000 is an intelligent product that can be extremely functional or just lots of fun! Use it with the 1-8x24 LEO and the TRYBE Enhancer for maximum versatility!
