Vortex Viper Riflescope

Yes, the 50mm objective lens and XR fully multi-coated lenses are designed to maximize light transmission, helping you maintain visibility during dawn and dusk.

With a Second Focal Plane reticle, the reticle size remains constant regardless of your magnification setting. This is ideal for hunters who prefer a consistent reticle appearance, though you should note that holdover points are typically calibrated for a specific magnification setting.

No, the scope requires separate ring mounts. It features a 1-inch tube diameter, so you will need to purchase 1-inch rings that are compatible with your specific firearm's mounting base.

The lenses are treated with ArmorTek, an ultra-hard, scratch-resistant coating that protects the exterior glass from scratches, oil, and dirt encountered in the field.

While the 3.5-10x magnification range is excellent for hunting and general range use, it is not optimized for extreme long-range precision. The Dead-Hold BDC reticle provides helpful holdover points, but serious long-range shooters may prefer a first focal plane scope with more advanced adjustment features.

No, this specific model is not rated as waterproof or fogproof. It is built with shockproof construction for rugged use, but you should avoid exposing it to heavy rain or extreme moisture.
