Schmidt & Bender
1.1-4x24mm Zenith Riflescope
The new S&B 1.1-4x24mm Zenith is designed for both-eyes-open hunting, with 11 different illuminated FlashDot settings, from lowest light to brightest sun. Settings 1-6 are for low light, providing a precise aim point against a dark target when non-illuminated crosshairs may be invisible. Settings 7-11 provide full illumination to the red dot at the center of the reticle, for use in bright sunlight or snow. This functions much like the front bead on a shotgun, allowing quick, accurate shots at moving game. When illumination is off, the reticle functions normally. Visit www.schmidtbender.com.
Simmons Master Series
ProHunter Riflescopes
Simmons’ Master Series ProHunter scope line includes the patented TrueZero flex erector system, new windage and elevation dials, and the QTA Quick Target Acquisition eyepiece — plus true one-piece tube construction for increased mounting area, aspherical lens technology and fully multi-coated optics, HydroShield lens coating, new SureGrip rubber surfaces on all eyepieces, and side-focus parallax adjustments. Also unprecedented in a value-priced riflescope is the Simmons TrueZero windage and elevation dial mechanism, which employs an audible-click ball bearing and spring system to significantly reduce wear while maintaining dial reliability and accuracy over time. The dials themselves do not screw in or out, but pull an internal post, which ensures equal click value throughout the full adjustment range. Also, the dials are completely sealed against water intrusion, even with the windage and elevation caps off. Visit www.simmonsoptics.com.

Swarovski Z6 Riflescopes
Swarovski has introduced the first-ever riflescopes with a six-magnification zoom factor. Plus, the field of view on the new Z6 scopes has increased by nearly 50 percent in some models, along with significant increase in eye relief. Illuminated reticle versions offer Swarovski’s advanced daylight/dimlight High Grid technology. All reticles are located in the second image plane, so only the target is enlarged when changing the magnification, not the reticle itself. The new 30mm Z6 scopes will be available in 1-6x24mm, 1.7-10x42mm and 2-12x50mm. Visit www.swarovskioptik.com.
Swift Sur-Lok Riflescopes
Swift Sport Optics announces the return of the Swift Sur-lok system. This new addition combines all the optical benefits and unique features of the Swift Premium riflescope collection, with a locking system that allows you to truly “set it and forget it!” The Sur-lok system replaces the traditional gimbal with a single coil spring and bronze cup and rod that prevents any movement of the erector tube during recoil. With the Sur-lok engaged, you‘ll never have to worry about your Zero shifting again. Once it’s set, it’s set forever! Visit swift-sportoptics.com.
