Vector Optics Continental x8 6-48x56 ED MOA Tactical Rifle Scope
Extreme Long-Range Precision with MOA Accuracy
The Vector Optics Continental x8 6-48x56 ED MOA Tactical Rifle Scope is engineered for serious long-range shooters who demand reliable precision and optical clarity at every distance. Whether you're competing, hunting, or training, this scope is built to deliver consistent results with a wide 6-48x magnification range. From spotting distant game to nailing steel targets at 1,000+ yards, this riflescope offers the performance and repeatability required by today’s precision marksmen.
At the core of its optical system lies a premium ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens setup and a massive 56mm objective lens that combine to deliver brilliant, distortion-free images. Paired with multi-coated lenses and a rugged 30mm aluminum tube, the scope ensures maximum light transmission and true-to-life color fidelity—even in dawn, dusk, or foggy conditions.
Optimized for MOA-Based Shooting
The VCO-6 MOA reticle in the second focal plane (SFP) remains the same size across the zoom range, allowing for precise and consistent aiming regardless of magnification level. With 1/8 MOA click adjustments and a total 48 MOA elevation and windage range, the Continental x8 gives shooters fine control over every shot—essential for long-range accuracy.
Whether you're making quick windage corrections or dialing for elevation, the crisp, repeatable turret system ensures confidence with every turn. The illuminated reticle provides high visibility in low-light environments, making it suitable for both daytime and twilight scenarios.
Designed for Demanding Environments
This riflescope isn’t just a high-performance optic—it’s built to survive the toughest field conditions. Constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, it is both shockproof and waterproof, and it maintains zero even under heavy recoil. With a generous eye relief of 95mm (3.8"), it ensures shooting comfort and safety whether mounted on a bolt-action rifle or semi-automatic platform.
Its side parallax adjustment offers razor-sharp focus from 10 yards to infinity, making it suitable for close-up precision work or extreme-range sniping. Compact yet powerful, this scope measures just 400mm (15.7") in length and weighs 810g, striking a perfect balance between size and performance.
