ELITE 6500 SERIES
Elite 6500 series riflescopes feature a 6.5x magnification range (1:6.5 ratio from low to high power), the widest in the industry. Push/pull turrets with resettable zero make sighting-in easy. The extended range of windage and elevation travel (60 inches on the 2.5-16x models), with .25 moa quick adjust clicks, make this scope a “must have” for the hunter who shoots a broad range of game and distances. All models have a one-piece, 30mm tube to deliver plenty of light, and up to 4 inches of eye relief and a finer Multi-X reticle (Mil Dot versions of each model are also available) to accommodate any shooter. Each model has side parallax adjustment. The 2.5x models can be adjusted from 10 yards to infinity and the 4.5 x models adjusts from 25 yards to infinity.

Konus
KONUSPRO M-30 SERIES
The M-30 series features 30mm tubes, lockable tactical turrets, 1/8 minute audible tactical adjustments, a lockable fast focus eyeball, greater windage/ elevation and greater resolution. The Illuminated Blue Mil. Dot. Reticle, new from Konus, can be seen easily against any other color and is softer on the eye than red or green reticles. The scope also has a glass engraved reticle system in which the reticle is laser-etched onto precision glass rather than using a thin wire. This eliminates the chances of breaking or becoming misaligned, as is the case with other scopes. Additional features of these nitrogen-purged, fogproof, waterproof scopes include black matte finish, flip-up eye covers and detachable sunshade. The product line consists of three riflescopes – 4.5-16x40mm, 6.5-25x44mm and 8.5-32x52mm.

Leupold
QDMANAGER SERIES
Leupold and the Quality Deer Management Association (QDMA) joined forces to develop a line of riflescopes specifically designed for serious whitetail hunters – the QDManager series. Based on Leupold’s VX-L riflescope models, the QDManager scopes feature the Light Optimization Profile, a concave crescent in the bottom of the objective lens and bell. This feature allows large objective riflescopes to be mounted low, providing exceptional comfort and correct ergonomics in the shooting position, which in turn improve target acquisition. The scopes feature an illumination system with 11 brightness settings and variable intensity rheostat and are available in 3.5-10x50mm, 4.5-14x50mm, 3.5-10x56mm and 4.5-14x56mm Long Range. All have a matte black finish and feature the QDMA identity on the Leupold Golden Ring and the QDMA logo medallion. A portion of each sale will be donated to QDMA.

Swarovski
Z6
Swarovski’s Z6 scopes offer 50 percent more field of view and 50 percent greater magnification range. An innovative lens system guarantees steady, smooth images with excellent quality. Additional safety against recoil is achieved without restricting the field of view thanks to an eye relief enlarged by 19 to 50 percent. The reticle illumination unit’s construction results in a low design thus providing an unrestricted view over the rifle scope when in the firing position. With the Z6i models, High Grid technology is built into the eyepiece for the best possible reticle illumination, well protected by a sturdy forged aluminum housing and completely watertight. The ergonomically designed operating elements plus two separate memory locations for day and night settings guarantee additional functionality. The scopes have a large choice of innovative reticles in the second image plane so only the target is enlarged when changing the magnification and not the reticle itself which makes aiming considerably easier. Available models include Z6 1-6x24, Z6 1-6x24 EE, Z6 1, 7-10x42, Z6 2-12x50, Z6i 1-6x24, Z6i 1-6x24EE, Z6i 1, 7-10x42 and Z6i 2-12x50.
MSRP: $1530-$2219
