The Viper HST riflescope series from the American manufacturer Vortex is designed mainly for hunters and sport shooters. The advanced optical system offers 6 - 24x magnification, adjustable parallax and a VMR-1 reticle.
This is the tactical version, featuring exposed turrets.
The extremely durable one-piece tube made from aircraft-grade aluminium is argon-purged to prevent fogging. The one-piece design ensures optimal visual performance and improved accuracy as well as water resistance. The robust construction easily handles recoil even from more powerful calibres.
The outer ArmorTek coating reliably protects the lenses against scratches, dirt and oils. Fully multi-coated lenses ensure increased light transmission and a bright and crisp image.
Adjustment is in MOA, with click values of 1/4 MOA, which is approximately 7.35 mm at 100 m. The reticle in this model is in the second focal plane, so the reticle size does not change with magnification. Parallax is adjustable from 50 yards (45.7 m) to infinity.
The box includes a sunshade, lens caps and a lens cleaning cloth.
The Vortex VIper HST riflescope will be especially appreciated by hunters thanks to its high quality, clear image and resistance to recoil from more powerful cartridges.
