Meopta 2-12×50 MeoStar R2 Riflescope (RD BDC 3 Reticle, Matte Black)

Description

Isolate medium game across dense timber through the Meopta MeoStar R2 Riflescope, featuring an illuminated RD BDC 3 reticle, 50mm objective lens, and 30mm tube. Designed for European-style stand hunting and open-field stalking, it delivers 90 MOA total elevation travel with 1/4 MOA adjustments, granting extraordinary photon gathering while keeping turret profiles protected.

Machined from high-tensile 6061-T6 aluminum, the thick-walled 30mm chassis isolates internal erector gears from receiver strain. Premium European optical glass features proprietary MeoLux coatings, maintaining razor target edges in overcast dusk. Nitrogen purging eliminates internal moisture hazards, yielding IPX7 submersible sealing. Tipping scales at 21.0 ounces with a 13.0-inch length, this optic anchors hunting rifles, representing high-performance Meopta hunting optic engineering.

Key Features of Meopta MeoStar R2

Big-game hunters buy Meopta 2-12×50 MeoStar R2 RD BDC 3 scopes to combine brilliant illuminated center micro-dots with extended ballistic drop lines. The illuminated BDC 3 reticle provides calibrated hold points for long-range precision.

• 50mm multi-coated objective delivers sharp resolution across low-light hunting scenarios
• 2-12x zoom range bridges dense timber shooting and 800-yard open terrain precision
• 1/4 MOA capped turrets provide positive zero clicks without accidental field rotation
• 90 MOA elevation travel accommodates bullet drop on standard centerfire hunting loads
• Illuminated RD BDC 3 reticle provides micro-dot brightness for bright sun and dark timber
• MeoShield external coatings protect exposed lens elements against scratching and abrasion
• MeoStar R2 riflescope erector components absorb heavy recoil impulses from magnum calibers
• Continuous rotary illumination control offers eight brightness levels with half-click shutoff

European Glass Mechanical Tracking Bounds

Dual erector tension springs keep the internal lens group centered, ensuring tracking accuracy within 1 percent across the 90 MOA elevation range. Tactical 1/4 MOA turrets provide exact physical displacement per click without mechanical backlash. Rated for 1000G recoil forces, the internal glass reticle endures continuous fire from heavy hunting rifles. Operational temperatures span -20°F to 140°F, preserving nitrogen seals and smooth power adjustments.

Large Objective Scope Ring Placement

The 30mm tube requires medium or high scope rings with 5.6 inches of receiver mounting room. High rings allow the 50mm objective bell to clear forward sporter barrel contours on bolt-action rifles. Torque ring fasteners to 15 to 18 in-lbs and mount base nuts to 40 to 45 in-lbs. Eye relief sits at 3.8 inches, offering protection against heavy recoil.

High Magnification Handling Maintenance Steps

The magnification ring moves with positive mechanical resistance, allowing deliberate zoom selection without slipping. This large-objective optic is not engineered for close-quarters dynamic room clearing or brush snap-shooting inside 25 yards. Implement structured armorer maintenance to maintain factory performance.

• Wipe dust and debris from optical glass using a clean lens cloth every 200 rounds
• Inspect scope mount fasteners with an accurate torque tool every 500 rounds
• Clean external turret threads and inspect rubber cap seals every 12 months
