ED Glass

The ED glass contributes to the high-quality images. At magnification this high, it is important for the image to be crystal sharp. Its basic function is to eliminate chromatic aberration and add to the contrast of the images, allowing the user to see more details.

The clicks on the turrets are designed for an absolutely precise POI adjustment – 1/10 MOA. This is the first riflescope that we know of with clicks so precise. The riflescope is equipped with turrets, typical for a target scope (high-profile, covered with caps). The parallax can be adjusted with the turret on the left (Side Focus). It can be set from 10 yards to infinity.
