The fully illuminated reticle supports night vision compatibility on low settings and delivers daylight-bright illumination at high settings.

FAQ
How does the first focal plane reticle benefit shooting accuracy? The reticle scales with magnification, ensuring that subtensions are accurate at all zoom levels. This allows shooters to make precise range estimations and holdovers without adjusting their calculations when zooming in or out, which is critical for long-range precision.
Is the PLx 6-30x56 suitable for hunting in low-light conditions? Yes, the scope features premium Japanese glass and a large 56mm objective lens that improve light transmission. Its illuminated reticle with night vision compatibility on lower settings enhances visibility during dawn, dusk, or night hunts.
How do the zero-reset turrets improve usability? After zeroing your rifle, the turrets can be reset to zero without losing your dialed-in settings. This feature simplifies tracking adjustments and allows quick return to your original zero point, making field adjustments more efficient.
What maintenance is required to keep the scope in optimal condition? The scope’s waterproof, shock, and fog-resistant design minimizes maintenance. Regular cleaning of lenses with a microfiber cloth and storing the scope with flip caps will maintain optical clarity and protect against environmental damage.
How does this model compare to other scopes within Primary Arms' lineup? The PLx 6-30x56 is designed for extreme long-range precision with advanced glass and reticle features, positioning it above the SLx or simpler ACSS models, which may be better suited for mid-range or budget-conscious shooters.
