Nikon's multicoated lens system provides 90% light transmission for outstanding optical clarity. |
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.

This review is from: Nikon Prostaff RealTree Riflescope 3-9x40 (RealTree Camo) (Sports) Very well put together and excellent optics. It was what I was hoping it would do.I am in the Northeastern Minnesota with a lot of rain and very cold weather and the the scope performed great without any fogging. I hope that this scope will last a long time. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By Gtafl (Fla) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Nikon Prostaff RealTree Riflescope 3-9x40 (RealTree Camo) (Sports) The web page for this scope shows the BDC reticle. I had to send mine back, no BDC reticle and no way to exchange it for the BDC. By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Nikon Prostaff RealTree Riflescope 3-9x40 (RealTree Camo) (Sports) Scope did not come as advertised. Does not have a bullet drop compensator (BDC) reticle.
Prostaff series comes in both rimfire and centerfire versions. I wonder if they are selling the rimfire version as the centerfire version of the prostaff series. Not good. The rimfire versions are set to be parallax free at 75 yards, centerfire at 150 yards. The centerfire version is also built more robustly to handle more recoil than the rimfire version. I am not pleased with the discrepancy. Will not buy from this seller again. |
