Vector Optics Continental x8 6–48x56 ED MIL Tactical Riflescope

Extreme Long-Range Precision for Tactical and Competition Shooters

The Vector Optics Continental x8 6–48x56 ED riflescope is purpose-built for elite marksmen, tactical professionals, and long-range precision shooters who demand absolute performance. With its ultra-wide 8x zoom ratio, enhanced ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass, and rugged MIL-spec construction, this riflescope delivers unmatched optical clarity, adjustment precision, and durability under the harshest shooting conditions.

Designed for Dominance Across All Distances

Whether engaging distant targets in tactical environments or competing in long-range precision events, the Continental x8 offers the versatility and resolution needed to succeed. The 6–48x magnification range enables rapid target acquisition at mid-range and surgical precision at extreme distances, while the large 56mm objective lens ensures maximum light transmission, even during dawn or dusk.

Precision Reticle & Repeatable Adjustments

This model features the illuminated VCO-5 MIL reticle in the second focal plane (SFP), ensuring a consistent reticle size across all magnifications—perfect for shooters who prefer a clean and stable aiming point regardless of zoom. Fine adjustments are made possible through tactile 0.05 MIL click values, with ±14 MIL of elevation and windage travel to handle any scenario.

Built to Withstand Recoil and the Elements

The riflescope’s 30mm main tube is constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum and tested for shock resistance, ensuring performance retention even under heavy recoil. It is nitrogen-purged, waterproof, and fog-proof, delivering reliability across any environment. At just 810g in weight and 400mm in length, the Continental x8 is compact enough for field use without sacrificing capability.
