Mainhawke Riflescope Vantage 30 WA 4 12X42

Hawke Optics has expanded its Vantage 30 WA lineup. The company's .223/.308 Marksman reticle is now available in a 4X-12X-42mm, bringing shooters an affordable, compact scope with increased magnification.

The new 4X-12X-42mm model in the Vantage 30 WA lineup is intended for AR-platforms, or any .223- or .308-chambered rifle. Built on a compact, 30mm mono-tube chassis, it is a solid performer at any range boasting a 100-yard zero and holdover aim points that increase in 100-yard increments out to 600 yards. As part of Hawke’s H2 series, the new Vantage 30 WA scope features 11-layer Fully Multi-Coated lenses for clarity and image quality.

The illuminated reticle, as with all IR models in the Vantage line, offers multi-stage illumination in both red and green. Quarter-MOA fingertip-adjustable exposed, locking turrets give a quick and easy adjustment to get on target fast. Fast-focus adjustment on the eyebell and plenty of eye-relief make target acquisition easy and reliable. All Hawke riflescopes are fully nitrogen purged, water-, shock-, and fog-proof, and come with Hawke’s No-Fault Lifetime Warranty. For more information, visit hawkeoptics.com. MSRP: $329
