Hawke positions the 2.5-10x50 Vantage 30 WA Riflescope as a durable and versatile hunting scope with a wide 50mm aperture for a great low-light performance and a fine-featured illuminated L4A Dot reticle that allows precise aiming without covering the background. The reticle lies in the second focal plane and has a brilliant target dot with red or green illumination and five brightness levels. Its outline resembles the German #4 style, where a target dot is surrounded by a fine crosshair and three thin posts. To generate bright and vivid images, the optical system is outfitted with precision-ground lenses that are treated with 11 layers of anti-reflection full multi-coatings. To ensure outstanding image clarity, free of ghost images and stray light, the interior of the housing is covered with a special black finish that does not reflect any light. This iteration of the series also features a widened angle (WA) of view: 50.4-12.6' field of view at 100 yards.

To match the quality of the optics, the housing is designed with strength, durability, and ergonomics in mind. Its defining features are a CNC-machined single-piece 30mm maintube, scratch-resistant anodized finish, water and fogproof performance, and a high-torque slip-free rubberized zoom ring. To protect windage and elevation turrets from accidental bumps, they have low-profile caps, and to guard optics from dirt and debris, the scope ships with two lens covers.
