Steiner Predator 4 6-24x50mm Rifle Scope - Illuminated E3 Reticle

The Steiner Predator 4 6-24x50mm delivers precision optics engineered for demanding hunting and tactical applications. This second focal plane riflescope combines German engineering with advanced ballistic reticle technology to extend effective range capabilities.

What Makes This Different

Steiner's CAT (Color Adjusted Transmission) coating technology optimizes light transmission across dawn and dusk hunting hours when game animals are most active. The illuminated Ballistic E3 reticle provides holdover points calibrated for common hunting cartridges, eliminating guesswork on longer shots. Unlike basic duplex reticles, the E3 system offers precise aiming points out to 600 yards with proper ballistic matching.

Key Features

• 6-24x magnification range with 50mm objective lens for enhanced light gathering
• 30mm main tube construction provides 60 MOA of total elevation adjustment
• Illuminated Ballistic E3 reticle with 11 brightness settings including off positions
• Second focal plane design maintains consistent reticle size across magnification range
• Nitrogen-filled tube with O-ring seals rated waterproof to 3 feet
• Fast-focus eyepiece with 4 inches of eye relief for scope mounting flexibility
• Side-focus parallax adjustment from 50 yards to infinity

Field performance centers on the scope's ability to maintain zero through temperature extremes and recoil cycles. The internal mechanism withstands magnum cartridge recoil while tracking adjustments remain consistent across the elevation range. Hunters report reliable performance in conditions ranging from prairie antelope hunts to timber elk scenarios where lighting conditions change rapidly.
