Our verdict

A compact hunting riflescope with an illuminated BDC reticle and a generous accessory kit. The reticle is second focal plane, so its holds are correct at one magnification only.

Overview

A hunting rifle that covers close and distant shots is the setting for this variable scope, which has an aluminum tube, a Power Dot reticle in red or green and an integral cantilever mount. A battery and hex key come in the box.

The illuminated reticle and wide zoom range suit hunting from close cover to longer shots, and the kit adds a Scopecoat, caps and a spare knob. Because the reticle is second focal plane, hold marks only match at the listed calibration power.

Who it's for

Hunters using a rifle on a cantilever mount who value a light scope and an illuminated aiming point. Shooters who want holdover marks valid across the zoom range should look at a first focal plane design. Warranty terms sit on the manufacturer site.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Illuminated red or green reticle
  • Light for its zoom range
  • Full accessory kit
  • Repositionable magnification knob
Cons
  • Holds valid at one power
  • Warranty details off-page
  • Eye relief not listed

Performance notes

In a second focal plane scope the reticle stays the same apparent size as magnification changes, so a BDC hold matches the target distance at one power setting. The illumination makes the aiming point easier to see in low light. Tube diameter and objective size govern light gathering and mounting height.
