FAQ
Is this scope suitable for rimfire rifles? Yes, the Primary Arms 3-9x44 SFP Classic Scope is designed for calibers ranging from .22 rimfire up to 5.56 NATO. Its reticle and magnification range accommodate the needs of small caliber shooters well.
How do I maintain the scope? The scope is sealed and nitrogen purged to resist fog and moisture, so minimal maintenance is required. Keep the lenses clean using a soft cloth and lens cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and store the scope in a dry environment.
How does the second focal plane reticle affect shooting? The duplex reticle maintains the same size at all magnifications, which means holdover references are only accurate at the highest magnification. It simplifies target acquisition without reticle scaling complexity.
Can I mount this on any rifle? The 30mm main tube fits standard 30mm rings and mounts, making it compatible with a wide range of rifles configured for small caliber shooting.
How does it compare to illuminated reticle scopes? This model features a non-illuminated duplex reticle, which reduces battery dependency and complexity. It performs well in good light conditions, but illuminated scopes are preferable in low light or dense cover.
