The company's patented ExacTrack windage and elevation system is standard on all models, while all reticles in this premium line are illuminated with a side-mounted 11-position on/off rotary-type dial using a standard CR2032 Battery. Finally, the side-mounted focus system has been redesigned for improved minimum focus performance.
