Hawke Airmax 4-12x40 AO Rifle Scope 1" Tube AMX Reticle

The Hawke Airmax 4-12x40 AO delivers precision optics engineered for airgun and rimfire applications where accurate shot placement matters most. This variable magnification scope combines adjustable objective focusing with Hawke's AMX reticle system for enhanced target acquisition across multiple shooting disciplines.

What Makes This Different

Unlike fixed magnification scopes, the 4-12x variable power range adapts from close-range pest control at 25 yards to precision target work beyond 100 yards. The adjustable objective lens eliminates parallax error from 10 yards to infinity, while the 40mm objective diameter gathers sufficient light for dawn and dusk shooting sessions. Multi-coated lenses deliver 91% light transmission for crisp image clarity.

Key Features

• 4-12x variable magnification with fast-focus eyepiece for rapid target acquisition
• 40mm adjustable objective lens eliminates parallax from 10 yards to infinity
• AMX reticle with mil-dot holdover points for accurate range estimation
• 1/4 MOA click adjustments with resettable turrets for precise zeroing
• Fully multi-coated optics provide 91% light transmission
• 1-inch tube diameter fits standard scope rings and mounts
• Nitrogen purged and O-ring sealed for fog-proof performance

Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes from -20°F to 120°F. The scope maintains zero through repeated recoil cycles on springers and PCPs up to .22 caliber. Hunters appreciate the low-light capability for early morning sessions, while competitive shooters rely on the precise turret adjustments for match-grade accuracy. The 3.75-inch eye relief accommodates various shooting positions without scope bite.
