The AR Optics riflescope series from the US manufacturer Bushnell was designed for use on AR-15 assault rifles. The variable magnification of 4.5–18x is a great choice for tactical shooting with fast target acquisition at medium distances. You can easily adjust the magnification using the practical folding lever. Owners with large fingers will certainly appreciate the option to replace the existing lever with a longer version, which is also included in the package.
The 25.4 mm tube is nitrogen-filled, so you don’t have to worry about lens fogging. The riflescope meets the IPX7 standard and can withstand immersion to a depth of one metre for 30 minutes. The lenses feature multi-layer coatings for maximum light transmission and the clearest possible image.
Exposed turrets allow for fast and precise adjustment. The clicks are very distinct and the value of one click is 1/10 MRAD. On the left turret, you can choose one of six reticle illumination levels and also adjust the parallax setting in the range from 10 yards (9.14 m) to infinity).
This model comes with a total of five elevation turrets. A standard turret with a 6 MIL (MRAD) range is factory-installed on the riflescope, and the package also includes turrets with bullet drop compensation for calibres .223 Rem, 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Win and .224 Valkyrie.
The Windhold reticle is etched directly into the lens glass and, in combination with the supplied turrets, allows for fast corrections and target acquisition.
