Advancements in barrels, actions, projectiles, powders and more have put us squarely in a new age of the rifleman. Arguably, optics and riflescopes have helped push that advancement even further. From long-range precision to action shooting, shooters demand optics that push technological capabilities not possible only a decade ago. The 1-10X riflescope provides one of the bigger examples of this tech. If you’re looking for one scope to do a whole lot of things pretty well, the 1-10X delivers. Now the Riton 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 brings another entry into this crowded market, this one retailing for under $1,000.

Riton 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 Details

The 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 delivers the company’s First Focal Plane Low Variable Optic (LVPO) system. It blends the capabilities of a 1X red dot with a 10X riflescope. Capped, zero-resettable windage and elevation turrets offer dual-capability between protected or exposed turrets. Adjustments come via 1/10 MRAD. An illuminated 3OT Christmas tree reticle provides the aiming points.

“The 5 TACTIX LVPO has been a long time coming and we are thrilled it is finally here,” said Jerimiah Alexander, Director of Product Riton Optics. “We have spent a lot of time, research, and development creating a riflescope that would excel in any environment and exceed expectations.”

The body utilizes 6061-T6 aluminum. A dual-lever throw system helps dial up the magnification rapidly. Every Riton scope comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty and the Riton Promise. The riflescope retails for $959.99. For even more info, please visit ritonoptics.com.
