Swarovski Optik AV 3-10x42 Riflescope with BR Reticle

Because of their low weight slender 1" main tubes and compact size, the ultra-precise Swarovski Optik AV models are the ideal rifle scopes for hunting on the move. The BR reticle featured in this scope is the most complete long range reticle system. The reticle is designed to provide holdover points that are customizable to any caliber. Pre-made decals come with the scope that give exact yardages for each holdover point for 40 different caliber / load combinations.

Considered one of the classics of Swarovski's 1-inch riflescope line, the Habicht AV 3-10x42 is ideal for the hunter who wants a small scope but doesn't want to forgo the most essential feature of a modern riflescope--a high-precision optic. The scope is outfitted with a modest 3-10x magnification range, making it suitable for fans of the traditional hunt. The scope's slender 1-inch main tube, meanwhile, offers extremely bright optics, with a sophisticated light gathering system that provides a wide field of view and optimum edge-to-edge sharpness. Add in a BR reticle--which is designed to take the guesswork out of how high to hold over a target, helping you shoot at longer ranges--and you're well equipped for a day in the field or forest.

Other features include a 42mm objective lens diameter; a shapely design that matches up with all types of firearms; a lightweight, rugged body that weighs only 12.7 ounces; a quick-focusing eyepiece with generous eye relief to protect against recoil; and a sturdy waterproof and nitrogen-purged housing that's submersible to 13 feet. All Swarovski riflescopes carry a lifetime warranty.

The scope comes with a BR reticle that's ideal for long-distance shooting.

About Swarovski Optik
Although founded in 1949, Swarovski Optik's roots actually trace all the way back to 1895, when Austrian Daniel Swarovski--who invented the world's first electric grinding machine for jewelry stones--established the family-owned Swarovski Crystal in the province of Tyrol. Since then, the name Swarovski has become synonymous worldwide with the clearest crystal, precision grinding, and a brilliant spirit of innovation, as the original enterprise continued branching out into additional lines of business.

Swarovski Optik owes its rise to Wilhelm Swarovski, son of the original founder and an avid hobby astronomer, who decided to build his own improved binocular in 1935 at a mere 17 years of age. With access to the specialized glass production and finishing technologies already used to manufacture jewelry stones in his father's factory, Wilhelm managed to develop a novel prism fabrication and grinding process that he applied in constructing his first 6x30 binocular. Wilhelm went on to found Swarovski Optik KG in Absam, Tyrol, in 1949, thus laying the foundation for a sports optics company with a global reputation. His company's first serial product, the Habicht 7x42, is still an industry standard in the field of hunting optics and continues to be produced in the best tradition of its founder.
