Vector Optics Continental x6 3-18x50FFP 34mm VCT Riflescope (SCFF-28) – Premium Mid- to Long-Range Precision
The Vector Optics Continental x6 3-18x50FFP 34mm VCT Riflescope (SCFF-28) is a professional-grade riflescope from the flagship Continental line, engineered to rival the world’s most prestigious optics. Combining a wide 3–18x magnification with a 50 mm objective lens, it offers shooters unmatched versatility—delivering rapid target acquisition at closer ranges while maintaining the clarity and accuracy required for extreme long-range engagements. Built to handle recoil up to .50 BMG, this riflescope is trusted by hunters, tactical shooters, and precision competitors alike.
Featuring German-engineered Schott ED HD glass, advanced LaREE lens technology, and VePRO FMC coatings, the optic ensures over 90% light transmission. The result is razor-sharp imaging, minimal distortion, and excellent low-light performance at dawn, dusk, and even in challenging nighttime conditions. With a 34 mm monotube machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, precise 0.1 mil turret adjustments, and zero-stop locking functionality, the Continental x6 3-18x50FFP is built for reliability in the harshest environments.

Optical Performance
At 3x magnification, the Continental offers a wide field of view and fast target acquisition—ideal for stalking hunts and dynamic shooting scenarios. At 18x, it enables pin-point precision for distances well beyond 1,000 meters. The ED HD glass eliminates chromatic aberration while premium coatings enhance brightness and color fidelity. This ensures crystal-clear imaging with minimal distortion, even under adverse light conditions. The constant 100 mm eye relief guarantees a comfortable shooting experience without shadowing or eye strain.
Precision Adjustments
- Click Value: 0.1 mil (1 cm at 100 m) per adjustment.
- Total Adjustment Range: 44 mil elevation and 16 mil windage.
- Turret Design: Exposed tactical turrets with lockable adjustments and zero-stop capability.
- Clicks per Revolution: 100 clicks, allowing smooth and reliable corrections.
Ergonomics & Shooter Comfort
- Eye Relief: 100 mm, providing consistent safety with high-recoil calibers like .338 Lapua Magnum.
- Exit Pupil: 8.0 – 2.8 mm across the zoom range for bright, sharp imaging.
- Field of View: 13.6 m at 100 m (3x) down to 2.1 m at 100 m (18x).
- Diopter Adjustment: +2 to -3, with fast-focus eyepiece for custom sharpness.
Durability & Build Quality
Constructed from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with critical turret components made of 7075-T6 aluminum, the riflescope ensures maximum durability. It is shockproof up to 1000 g, waterproof for 30 minutes at 1 m depth, and fully nitrogen-purged for fogproof reliability in changing climates. The matte black anodized finish is scratch-resistant and non-reflective, ensuring operational reliability in tactical, hunting, and competitive environments.
