ZEISS V8

This riflescope offers unparalleled optical clarity and robust engineering, designed for hunters seeking peak performance in challenging environments. With an impressive 92% light transmission and the Ultra-FL Concept incorporating SCHOTT fluoride glass, it delivers exceptional brightness, color fidelity, and resolution, ensuring precision in even the harshest conditions. The ZEISS T* and LotuTec coatings enhance image clarity by minimizing reflections and repelling water, dirt, and debris for crisp visuals in low-light or adverse weather. Built to endure the most demanding situations, the 30mm main tube is impact-tested to withstand over 800 cycles at 1,000 g-force and multiple cycles at 1,500 g-force. It is waterproof up to 13 feet for two hours, ensuring reliability in extreme environments. The daylight-visible ultra-fine illuminated reticle allows precise aiming with minimal target coverage, making it suitable for dynamic hunting scenarios and long-range precision. The extra-large eyebox enhances quick target acquisition, maximizing success in fast-paced situations.
