The Helia KX 4-12x50 Riflescope was designed for the American sportsman. Its compact form factor makes it an excellent choice for the hunter looking to retrofit their favorite firearm with a new and innovative optical sighting system.
This Helia KX delivers excellent imaging qualities and outstanding low-light performance. Its low weight and streamlined profile give the hunter a substantial advantage on those long treks across difficult terrain. The substantial field of view offers a sight picture that is comfortable in most hunting scenarios; wide enough to see what's happening and tight enough for precise shot placement. The 4-12x magnification is a tremendous advantage for the long-range hunter. The wide field of view at 4x is comfortable in wooded areas, but when your quarry springs into view across a wide open plan or on top of a ridge across the valley, you need power. When you dial this optic up to maximum magnification distant targets will seem up-close-and-personal. Higher levels of magnification also shorten the depth of field enabling your target to pop into view easily. Your sight picture will remain unobstructed at these higher levels of magnification because the reticle is positioned in the second focal plane. This configuration maintains the dimensions of the reticle across the entire power range of the ocular.
Kahles has engineered this KX scope to deliver a lifetime of confidence building performance. The fine mechanics are absolutely repeatable for reliable tracking, and the optics are world class for a brilliant sight picture at first and last light. When you're ready to bring home that trophy, you can rely on your Kahles scope to get the job done right.
To use a riflescope with your firearm, you'll need a mounting base and mounting rings in addition to the scope itself. Bases attach to your firearm and rings attach to your scope. Proper spacing of the rings, as well as the ring height should be considered to ensure a proper line of sight can be established. This will maximize the value of your investment, and enhance your shooting experience. It should be noted that in many mounting applications, a professional gunsmith's skills will be needed for proper installation.
