What our Experts Think
-
Built specifically for competition shooters
Designed for F‑Class and benchrest disciplines, this scope is optimized for known-distance, ultra-precision shooting where consistency and accuracy are critical.
-
Extreme 15–60× magnification for maximum detail
One of the highest magnification ranges available, allowing shooters to see minute target details and read mirage/wind conditions clearly at long distances.
-
Ultra‑precise 1/8 MOA adjustments
Offers exceptionally fine turret control, enabling micro-adjustments that serious competitors rely on for tight groupings and score-critical shots.
-
ECR‑1 MOA reticle (SFP) for precision holdovers
The fine crosshair with hash marks allows accurate windage and elevation holds, while the SFP design keeps the reticle clean and highly visible.
-
Top-tier HD optical performance
Premium HD glass delivers crystal-clear resolution and excellent contrast, helping shooters distinguish fine details and environmental conditions downrange.
-
Optimized for reading mirage & wind
Optical clarity and magnification make it easier to analyze heat waves and wind drift, a key advantage in competitive shooting.
-
Lightweight for competition compliance (~29.5 oz)
Despite its power, it remains relatively light—helping shooters stay within strict competition weight limits.
-
Purpose-built, not general-purpose
This scope excels in controlled environments and long-range competition, but is not ideal for hunting or dynamic shooting scenarios due to its extreme magnification and specialization.

Maintenance Tips
-
Clean HD Optics Carefully: Use a blower first, then a microfiber cloth with lens-safe cleaner to maintain ultra-high magnification clarity.
-
Keep Lens Caps On: Protect the 52mm objective and eyepiece from dust, scratches, and oil buildup.
-
Maintain Precision Turrets: Keep elevation and windage turrets clean and debris-free for accurate 1/8 MOA adjustments.
-
Avoid Impact & Shock: Even minor drops can affect tracking accuracy and reticle alignment in competition-grade optics.
-
Dry After Field Use: Despite fogproof/water-resistant design, wipe dry after moisture exposure to preserve seals.
-
Check Mount Stability: Ensure 30mm tube rings are properly torqued to maintain zero and long-range precision.
-
Use Sunshade: Helps reduce glare and protects the objective lens during high-magnification use.
-
Store in Controlled Environment: Avoid extreme heat, dust, and humidity to protect internal components.
