The Continental riflescope series from Vector Optics boasts high durability, refined workmanship, and top‑class optical performance.
The 6061 T6 aircraft‑grade aluminium tube has a diameter of 30 mm and is filled with nitrogen, which prevents lens fogging during sudden temperature changes. This model meets the IPX6 standard and is therefore resistant to water ingress.
The greatest pride of this riflescope is undoubtedly its optical system. German LaREE and VePRO FMC lenses ensure a crystal‑clear image and, in combination with the 50 mm objective, offer up to 90% light transmission. Thanks to this, you can use this model even in low‑light conditions.
The adjustment turrets also deserve attention. The top elevation turret features a Zero Stop function, which allows you to zero the turret at any chosen zeroing distance and at the same time prevents you from dialing below this set value. You can therefore easily return to your selected starting position. The right windage turret is lockable and must be pulled up before each adjustment.
The clicks themselves are very distinct and each click can be reliably felt. The adjustment is in milliradians and the value of one click is 1/10 MRAD (1 cm at 100 m). On the left turret you can adjust the parallax, which here is adjustable in the range from 10 yards (9.14 m) to infinity. You can also set the level of the reticle illumination. There are 6 brightness levels to choose from. The illumination is powered by a single CR2032 lithium battery (not included), which is simply placed into the left turret.
The tactical reticle VCT-10A is etched directly into the lens glass and can withstand recoil forces of up to 6000 J. The crosshair is clearly visible and is located in the second focal plane, so the selected magnification does not affect its size.
The package includes a two‑piece mount for Picatinny rail, sunshade, spare elevation turret, lens covers and a cleaning cloth for the optics.
This model is capable of withstanding 750 g (unit of gravitational acceleration), which is equivalent to the recoil of firearms in .223 and .308 calibre.
