Ledefrontier 30 FFP

Hawke Optics has released a riflescope family geared toward hunters, with its new 2024 Frontier 30 FFP MOA Hunter Series. Available in 4-20x50mm MOA Hunter and 5-25x56mm MOA Hunter models, the latest additions to the Frontier line of premium scopes bring all the clarity, confidence and precision expected from a System S7 Hawke optic, with new reticles designed specifically for the hunter. 

Let’s take a look at the reticles. The new FFP MOA Hunter reticles were developed specifically for First Focal Plane (FFP) optical systems and are based on standard MOA-spaced reticles. The FFP MOA Hunter reticle extends to 32 MOA of holdover and has a fine center dot with 0.3 MOA on the 4-20x50mm model and 0.24 MOA on the 5-25x56mm model, to cover the gamut of potential ranges. Both have 16 MOA windage holds with thick posts on the sides and bottom section of the reticle for faster target acquisition at any magnification, and of course, the aim points remain true throughout the magnification range.

Frontier 30 FFP MOA Reticle

To yield better performance and visibility in varying light conditions, the Frontier 30 FFP MOA Hunter scopes feature a red-illuminated reticle with six brightness levels and an off position between each level. The side focus adjustment allows one to zero in on the target out to extreme ranges with a parallax of 15 yards to infinity. Hawke added its patented, Exposed Zero Lock ‘n Stop turrets that feature a state-of-the-art return to zero feature.

Both Frontier FFP MOA Hunter scopes start with a one-piece, machined, high-grade aluminum 30mm main tube and Hawke’s legendary H7 optics that use index-matched lenses with 21 layers of advanced coatings and the finest components for the ultimate clarity. The scopes also have four inches of eye relief and a locking ocular focus. Each comes with an easy-to-use zoom lever that is removable to allow one to set the scope up in whatever configuration is desired, a four-inch sunshade, reticle battery, Hawke Professional Flip-Up lens covers and a lens cloth. Each scope is fully water, shock and fog proof and nitrogen purged..
