A compact, lightweight design and a wide field of view make the 1-8x24 Vantage 30 WA Riflescope from Hawke Optics a good choice for general hunting. Eleven layers of antireflection coating on all lens surfaces deliver a sharp image with ample contrast. The scope features a single-piece 30mm maintube with 210 MOA of elevation and windage adjustment at 1/2 MOA per click for long-distance shots. The L4A Dot reticle in the second focal plane uses an open outer post design to keep more of the target visible while aiming. The scope is set to be parallax-free at 100 yards, and the sealed aluminum housing is purged with nitrogen to be fog and water resistant.
