Featuring German optical performance, Blaser introduces its B2 riflescope line in three models—1-6×24 iC, 2-12×50 iC, and 2.5-15×56 iC. Featuring a second focal plane design, the illuminated reticle offers daylight bright operation via fiber optics. In addition, the unique design of the scopes is optimized for the direct attachment of clip-on thermal devices.
The Blaser B2 Riflescope Line
Building from a 30mm main tube, the B2 riflescope line is highly compact and robust, and offers 6x – 15x zoom, depending on the model. Likewise, the nitrogen-purged scopes are waterproof down to 4 meters, making them capable of handling harsh elements. Additionally, the external lenses are coated with Blaser’s Smart Lens Protection (SLP) hydrophobic coating to repel rain.
The shorter length also takes advantage of the B2’s ability to attach thermal clip-on devices. Its design mitigates the additional weight stress when shooting with a thermal unit attached. Likewise, the shorter length makes it easy to operate the clip-on device from a shooting position. It also ensures that the rifle’s center of gravity isn’t shifted too far forward.
Featuring a second focal plane construction, the illuminated fiber optic C reticles feature a fine, daylight-bright setting. The brightness is easily adjusted via a lockable turret, so you can set it and forget it. An optional B2 Ocular Flip Cover is available separately and activates the illuminated reticle via a magnet when opened.
“The Blaser B2 riflescopes feature excellent German-built optics optimized for big game hunting and for use with the Liemke clip-on thermal devices,” said Jason Evans, CEO, Blaser Group USA. “The premium optics and design make this line of scopes ideal for all hunters who want the option of hunting in daylight or darkness, which thermal clip-ons make possible.”
Availability
The Blaser B2 riflescope line is available with MSRPs of $1,700.00 – $1,900.00, depending on the model. For more info, please visit Blaser.de/en/.
