The Hawke Sports Optics 2-7x32 Vantage AO Riflescope represents a basic all-purpose scope that is ideal for most close and mid-range uses. Its 11-layer fully multi-coated optics maximizes light transmission and helps off-set the smaller 32mm objective to produce bright and clear images in most lighting conditions. The low minimum magnification allows you to use the scope with a reflex-scope both-eyes-open technique for fast target acquisition and tracking at close to mid-ranges. Complementing the performance of the scope is a lightweight and durable anodized aluminum housing with a 1" one-piece maintube that is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be water and fogproof. Threads on the ocular and objective provide a solid mounting point for optional accessories such as sun shades.
