Swarovski Z6i Illuminated Riflescope 2.5-15×44 - 4A-I, 30MM, 59438

Swarovski Z6i Illuminated Riflescope 2.5-15×44 - 4A-I, 30MM, 59438

The Swarovski Z6i Illuminated Riflescope 2.5-15×44 with Plex, 4A, 7A, BR & Ballstic Turret - Plex reticles have set a new standard with their 6x zoom. Swarovski Z6 Illuminated 2.5-15×44 Rifle scope is recommended for shots at long distances, particularly in difficult, rough terrain or hunting abroad where weight and distance are a factor. The new Z6 generation riflescopes from Swarovski Optik has given the ability for unprecedented accuracy with a 6x zoom to give you the maximum level of detail when hunting.

The new Swarovski Z6 2.5-15×44 Rifle scopes offers an increase of 50% in field of view and 50% more magnification range. The end result of the massive improvements with the Z6i scope is faster, more accurate identification and shooting. With the latest Z6i Illuminated Riflescope you can simultaneously achieve a greater magnification for the identification of detail and an accurate shot, regardless of whether close or far away. In this case, an innovative lens system assures steady, smooth images with excellent quality.

The cutting edge construction of the reticle in the Swarovski Z6 2.5-15×44 Illuminated Rifle scope results in a low design thus providing an uninterrupted view over the riflescope when in the firing position. With the Z6/Z6i models, the tried and tested High Grid technology is built stylishly into the eyepiece well protected by a sturdy forged aluminum alloy housing and completely watertight. The new ergonomically designed operating elements plus two separate memory locations for day and night settings guarantee additional functionality. The new Z 6 line of Swarovski Riflescopes have a large choice of innovative reticles in the second image plane: this means that only the target is enlarged when changing the magnification and not the reticle itself which makes aiming considerably easier.

In addition the Swarovski Z6 2.5-15×44 Riflescopes by Swarovski comes in five reticle choices 4A-I, BR-I and Ballistic Turret - 4A-I. With the reticle in a different image plane you can magnify the target in the rifle scope but the reticle does not change size. To top it off, an elegant and ergonomic design rounds off the external appearance of the new Z6 generation.

Meade - 80mm ED Triplet APO (f/6) with Dual Speed Crayford Focuser and 2 inch Series 5000 Enhanced 99% Diagonal, 0306-00-03

Meade - 80mm ED Triplet APO (f/6) with Dual Speed Crayford Focuser and 2 inch Series 5000 Enhanced 99% Diagonal, 0306-00-03

A Series 5000 APO is the ideal companion for your larger Schmidt-Cassegrain, Ritchey-Chr?tien, or Newtonian scope. When piggybacked, a Series 5000 APO is the ideal wide-field photography scope when guided by the primary instrument and doubles as a guide scope for the primary telescope. It also makes an ideal lightweight and portable scope for flawless visual observing.

For crisp wide field observing and imaging, nothing beats a true triple-element apochromatic refractor (APO). This is especially true in astrophotography, where APOs have produced some of the most beautiful images of the heavens ever taken from earth. But not all APOs are created equal. Today?s market is filled with semi-APOs (with two lenses instead of three) that don?t bring all colors to focus. Thanks to a two-year design process and a triple objective lens made from the highest quality ED (extra-low dispersion) glass, Meade Series 5000 ED APO Triplets are virtually free of chromatic aberration (color fringing). This means they outperform the most expensive semi-APOs at a fraction of the cost. Expert observers will be delighted by the total absence of color fringing and the scope?s textbook-perfect pinpoint star images. Even beginners will notice the breathtaking high contrast and resolution of a Meade Series 5000 APO. The scope is available as a stand-alone OTA, or as a package with our new Series 5000 2″ enhanced diagonal and an aluminum carrying case.

Zeiss Victory Varipoint 0, 1.1-4×24 T* Riflescope (Matte Black) 30 mm Tube Waterproof Fogproof Hunting Turrets

by @ 2:41 pm. Filed under Riflescopes

Item No. 550-10500
Manuf. No. Zeiss 5217079900

Zeiss Victory Varipoint 0, 1.1-4×24 T* Riflescope (Matte Black) 30 mm Tube Waterproof Fogproof Hunting Turrets, 5217079900

Carl Zeiss has a long and illustrious history that begins in Germany in 1846. Since their inception, they have been known to be leaders in the world of optical designs and fine mechanics. Purchasing and using a riflescope from the creators of many of the world’s most revered optical and mechanical designs ensures satisfaction, confidence and appreciation for how a truly fine optic can enhance your outdoor experience.

An excellent choice for your favorite brush rifle - the Varipoint 1.1-4×24 sits low while it delivers a wide field-of-view. At 1.1x the ability to employ a ‘both-eyes-open’ method of sighting presents itself - this greatly improves situational awareness and the ability to execute that important follow-up shot. Dialing up to 4x magnifies distant targets enough for mid-to long-range shots on medium to large sized targets.

This amazing Varipoint scope is configured with a 30 mm tube, hunting turrets, an illuminated #0 reticle in the second focal plane, and a matte black finish.

A mounting base and rings are used to attach a riflescope to a firearm. A comfortable sight picture is contingent upon the height of the rings. A comfortable cheek-weld is the result of properly positioning the scope over the receiver. Mounting the scope close to the receiver is preferable, yet scopes with larger objectives need higher rings so the front bell can clear the barrel. It should be noted that in many mounting applications, a professional gunsmith’s skills will be needed for proper installation.
