Key Features

Magnification & Optics:
• 4–12× magnification provides flexibility from close-range to mid-distance engagements.
• 44 mm objective lens gathers ample light for bright, sharp images in varied lighting.
• Fully multi-coated lenses enhance light transmission and image clarity.

Reticle & Focal Plane:
• Dead-Hold BDC (MOA) reticle on the Second Focal Plane (SFP) offers holdover and windage reference marks without changing reticle size across magnification levels — useful for estimating distances and bullet drop.

Durable Construction:
• Aircraft-grade aluminum housing with a one-piece tube maximizes strength and alignment.
• Nitrogen purged and O-ring sealed design ensures the riflescope is waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof in extreme conditions.
• Hard-anodized matte finish for reduced glare and enhanced durability.

Adjustments & Controls:
• Capped resettable turrets with ¼ MOA click adjustments make sight-in straightforward and protect knobs from accidental impacts.
• Up to 50 MOA of total windage and elevation adjustment accommodates a wide range of zeroing needs.
• Fast-focus eyepiece for quick reticle focusing before each shot.

Eye Relief & Field of View:
• Generous eye relief (~3.9–4.4″) supports comfortable and consistent shooting positions.
• Field of View: ~24.7′ (at 4×) to 8.4′ (at 12×) @ 100 yds — ideal for both broad target areas and precision aiming.

Included Accessories:
• Removable lens covers and a lens cloth are provided to protect and maintain optical surfaces.

User Tips

Reticle Familiarization:
Practice using the Dead-Hold BDC hash marks at known distances to estimate necessary holdovers and wind adjustments, enhancing speed and confidence in the field.

Zeroing Strategy:
Set your scope zero at a comfortable mid-range (e.g., 100 yds) and use the BDC marks progressively to address longer range shots. Confirm impacts with actual firing to refine your holdover values.

Optic Maintenance:
Keep lenses clean and free of debris; use the included lens cloth and covers to preserve anti-reflective coatings for maximum light transmission during low-light conditions.
