“first focal plane”

American Hunter has announced the recipients of its 2023 Golden Bullseye Awards, honoring exceptional design, manufacturing, performance and value for American hunters and gun owners.

Featuring the PĒK (Programable Elevation Knob) system, a built-in Heads-Up Display and Bluetooth connectivity for uploading custom ballistic data from the new BurrisConnect Mobile App, the Veracity PH is designed to imbue confidence in the field.

GPO, USA is proud to introduce its new 15-45x60mm Tactical Spotting Scope, featuring the same reticle found in the company’s first focal plane (FFP) GPOTACä 4.5-27x50i FFP Tactical riflescope.

The TORIC UHD 30mm Hunting Rifle Scope was developed for use by today’s long-range hunters and designed to be lightweight and small enough to be at home on a hunting rifle, but is not out of place on a precision rifle, either.

If you're in the market for a solid “do-all” scope that will work for hunting, long-range shooting or even tactical applications, the Leupold Mark 5HD is a great choice.

Holdover reticles can be a quick and effective means of precision holdover without having to take your eye out of the scope. Here’s a detailed look at how they work.

On a first focal plane riflescope, the reticle grows and shrinks as magnification is adjusted, allowing a hunter to use a reticle with holdover marks. This is not the case on a second focal plane scope. Which is best for your hunting rig?

For long-range precision shooting and hunting, the Zeiss LRP S3 includes broad total elevation travel, a daytime-visible illuminated reticle, a ballistic stop and an externally locking windage turret.

Here’s a look at some of the best long-range hunting scopes on the market.
