Hawke Sports Optics crafted the 6-18x50 Endurance Side Focus Riflescope to address the needs of low-light and long-range precision shooters and hunters. To emphasize its goals, Hawke outfitted the scope with a large 50mm objective, which can scoop more light at dawn and dusk than your grandpa's average scope, and the discreet .223/.308 Marksman illuminated reticle. The fully multi-coated optics offer 16 layers of anti-reflection coatings to further increase resolution and image brightness. Located on the 2nd focal plane is an etched-on-glass .223/.308 Marksman illuminated reticle. Its offers three tapered, outer hollow posts and a thin crosshair. Below the vertical axis are BDC crosses for hold-over/under. These points range from zero at 100 yards to 600 yards. To make precise shots at a variety of ranges, you can easily correct the parallax from 10 yd to infinity with the side focus parallax knob. To help with compensating for wind and ballistic bullet drop, the riflescope offers 56 MOA of windage and elevation adjustment range and a 1/4 MOA per click impact point correction.

The scope's aluminum construction is centered around its 1" single-piece maintube, which is filled with nitrogen for fogproof and waterproof performance. The overall design features a slender, unobtrusive shape with low-profile capped turrets. To prevent recoil-related zoom shift, the fast-focus eyepiece is outfitted with a high-torque zoom ring. To keep your scope's lenses protected from debris, dust, and dirt while it is not used, one objective lens cap and one ocular lens cap are also included. Other included accessories are a lens cloth, one CR-2032 battery, and 1.5" side wheel.
