Wide Angle Rifle Scope

Wide-angle riflescopes are built to offer the widest possible field of view for rapid target acquisition. Such scopes are used for close range shooting on driven hunts, while stalking, on dynamic shooting competitions or in close quarter tactical situations. Many of the wide-angle riflescopes also offer the option to use both eyes open when aiming and in this way have an unlimited field of view. Illuminated reticle gives further advantage to the shooter in fast target acquisition; however, such illumination has to be in bright daytime. Common features of wide-angle scopes are:

• Magnification of 1.0x (or 1.1x as less ideal)
• Field of view greater than 35m/100m
• Illuminated reticle with daytime intensity
• 30 mm tube diameter (hunting models can be mounted with rails)
• 4, 5, 6, 8 or 10 zoom factor
• Capped or tactical turrets
• • Parallax fixed at 100m
