Our verdict

A long-range second focal plane scope with an illuminated BRW-I reticle, a ballistic turret with a zero stop and a limited lifetime warranty. It is not a first focal plane design, so holdover marks scale only at one magnification.

Overview

A long-range hunting stand or a bench at the range is where this scope fits, with a wide tube, a ballistic turret and an illuminated BDC reticle. Lens covers and a cleaning cloth come in the box.

A larger tube gives more adjustment range at a similar weight, and the turret offers greater travel with an easy-to-set zero stop. The reticle is in the second focal plane, which leaves it a constant size as the zoom changes, so it suits shooters who hold with BDC marks at a set power.

Who it's for

Long-range hunters and shooters who dial turrets and use the reticle at one power. Shooters who hold over at every zoom setting should choose a first focal plane model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Large zoom range
  • Illuminated BDC reticle
  • Ballistic turret with zero stop
  • High light transmission
Cons
  • Second focal plane reticle
  • Heavy for a hunting rifle
  • Narrow field at top power
  • Bullet drop marks fit one load

Performance notes

A larger tube lets the erector system travel farther, which means more elevation adjustment, and high light transmission helps in dim light. The BDC reticle marks apply only at one magnification in a second focal plane scope, so holdovers must be used at that setting.
