5 Primal 3 18X50 Right Facing Objective (1)

The Riton 5 Primal 3-18x50mm Crossover Scope combines a decade of precision and long-range optics innovation to create a versatile option equally suited for 1,000-yard shooting and backcountry hunting. There is an increasing demand for riflescopes to cover the needs of long-range hunters and shooters. As hunting and precision shooting needs converge, this scope addresses both with capped turrets for reliable adjustments and superior light management for low-light conditions.

The magnification range provides optimal performance and situational awareness from close encounters in heavy timber to open country vistas and long-range opportunities. The rugged 34mm chassis ensures durability and allows for greater windage and elevation adjustments. The first-focal-plane Long-Range Hunter (LRH) reticle offers duplex simplicity at low magnifications and higher-level precision. With precision-inspired features tailored for hunters, the 5 Primal is a true crossover optic priced at $999.99. For more information, visit Riton Optics at ritonoptics.com.
