Swarovski ATC 17-40×56 Spotting Scope — Compact, capable, and built around Swarovski's legendary glass. The ATC is Swarovski's integrated-eyepiece compact spotter — a single, sealed unit designed for hunters who want a pocketable high-performance scope that's ready to use without assembly or extra gear.
Built for the Field, Not the Window Sill
The ATC's distinctive half-shell body design lets you rest the scope directly on any flat surface — a rock, pack, truck hood, or window frame — without a tripod, while keeping the focus and zoom wheels fully accessible at all times. When you do want a tripod, a standard ¼-20 thread socket is built in.
- Half-shell body — stable on any flat surface without a tripod
- Angled eyepiece (ATC = angled) — natural viewing angle when the scope is laid on a surface or when multiple observers need to look through at different heights
- Integrated zoom — 17-40× in one sealed, compact package
- ¼-20 tripod socket — works with any standard tripod head
