Nikon's multicoated lens system provides 90% light transmission for outstanding optical clarity. |
Nikon ProStaff riflescopes accommodate most hunting styles, with enough power for long-range shots and a wide field of view for thick brush and timber. The 3-9x50 riflescope is designed to keep hunters in the field as long as possible and helps with target acquisition in low light, low contrast situations.
The scope features a multicoated lens system for up to 90% light transmission, a bullet drop compensating (BDC) reticle for easy holdover out to 600 yards (magnum calibers), and precise 1/4 MOA reticle adjustments. The BDC reticle is perhaps the most compelling feature, as its trajectory-compensating system is designed and calibrated to provide fast, simple aiming points for various shot distances. The unique system integrates a series of small "ballistic circles" to produce an unobstructed view of the target.
The scope's high-performance lenses, meanwhile, are coated with multiple layers of anti-reflective compounds. The compounds serve to boost light transmission, improve contrast to pull game out of its surroundings, deliver true color rendition and flare-free viewing, and enhance the overall image quality. Plus, the ProStaff scope is ready for years of reliable service thanks to its 100% water- and fog-proof housing. O-ring sealing and nitrogen filling ensure moisture never penetrates the interior.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This is another great product from Nikon.
I already have several in use, but have only mounted this one on my new Savage Model 93 rifle.
It looks really good on the stainless steel receiver and sets off the whole outfit really well.
One note, when ordering or buying the rings to mount, be sure and get the ones that will handle a 50mm objective lense. My first attempt did not work.
