FAQ
What size scope rings does this scope need?
It has a 1″ main tube, so you need 1″ rings. A good match is the Leupold BackCountry Cross-Slot 1″ Medium Rings, or browse all scope rings.
What does second focal plane (SFP) mean?
The reticle sits behind the magnification lenses, so it stays the same size as you zoom. It stays bold and easy to see at low power, which is why most hunting scopes use it.
