Overview
Not a second focal plane scope, this one places its MIL reticle in the first focal plane, so reticle marks scale with the zoom ring. The aluminum body carries a big objective lens and a high top power.
A first focal plane reticle makes holdover marks accurate at any magnification, which suits ranging and dialing at distance. A wide objective gathers light, and the listing offers a lifetime warranty. The field of view narrows at the top of the zoom range.
Who it's for
Precision shooters and long-range hunters who hold over in mils and shoot from a rest. People who want a lightweight, low-power scope should choose a smaller optic.
Pros and cons
- First focal plane reticle
- High top magnification

- Heavy for its role
- Narrow view at high power
- Tube diameter not listed
- Included items minimal
Performance notes
With a first focal plane reticle, the marks grow and shrink with the image, so holdover and ranging stay valid at any zoom. Higher power magnifies shake as well as the target, so a stable rest matters. A wide objective collects more light for dawn and dusk shooting.
