Bushnell’s AR Optics 1-8x24 Illuminated Riflescope pairs fast target acquisition with practical hold points for longer shots. Built around a rugged 30mm aluminum main tube, this low-power variable optic features the illuminated BTR-1 BDC reticle in the second focal plane, calibrated for popular .223/5.56 loads. Fully multi-coated lenses deliver a bright, clear sight picture, while IPX7 waterproofing and nitrogen purging protect the internals from the elements. The Throw Down Power Change Levers (short and long included) speed magnification changes, and capped MRAD turrets provide reliable adjustments without snagging.
