Crystal-Clear Optics & Reliable Construction

This model features a 24 mm fully multi-coated objective lens that delivers bright, sharp visuals with edge-to-edge clarity and only ~8% light loss—ideal in dawn/dusk lighting. The 30 mm aircraft-grade aluminum monotube is nitrogen-purged, waterproof (IP67), fog-proof, and shock-tested to 1 000 G, making it rugged enough for field use :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}.

SFP Etched Reticle & Illumination

The second focal plane (SFP) design maintains reticle appearance across all magnifications. The etched glass VTC‑SMIL reticle and 6‑level red illumination offer clear aiming from bright daylight to moonlit conditions :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}.

Precision Turrets with Locking System

The scope offers audible 1/10 MIL clicks, with ≥ 60 MIL of adjustment for both elevation and windage. The turrets include a smooth zero-reset and locking mechanism to maintain your settings under recoil or transport :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.

Fast-Focus & Ideal Eye Relief

Equipped with a fast-focus eyepiece and diopter adjustment between –2 to +2 D, the Tauron provides consistent eye relief of 100 mm (4″), reducing scope bite on high-caliber platforms :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.

Field of View & Compact Design

Enjoy a broad field of view—from 105 ft at 100 yds to 18 ft at 6×—offering excellent situational awareness. The compact form factor (264 mm long, 537 g) makes this one of the lightest tactical LPVOs available :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
