OPTICAL FEATURES |
|
XD Lens Elements |
Extra-low dispersion (XD) glass increases resolution and color fidelity, resulting in crisp, sharp images. |
XR Fully Multi-Coated |
Proprietary coatings increase light transmission with multiple anti-reflective coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces. |
Second Focal Plane Reticle |
Scale of reticle maintains the same ideally-sized appearance. Listed reticle subtensions used for estimating range, holdover and wind drift correction are accurate at the highest magnification. |
CONSTRUCTION FEATURES |
|
Tube Size | 30 mm diameter. |
Single-Piece Tube |
Maximizes alignment for improved accuracy and optimum visual performance, as well as ensures strength and waterproofness. |
Aircraft-Grade Aluminum | Constructed from a solid block of aircraft-grade aluminum for strength and rigidity. |
Waterproof |
O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust and debris from penetrating the riflescope for reliable performance in all environments. |
Fogproof | Argon gas purging prevents internal fogging over a wide range of temperatures. |
Shockproof | Rugged construction withstands recoil and impact. |
