Vortex Viper HS 2.5-10×44 Riflescope

Description

Across dense woodland hunting timber the Vortex Viper HS Riflescope in 2.5-10x44mm delivers outstanding target clarity. Offering a 44mm objective lens, 1/4 MOA clicks, and 86 MOA travel, this optic accelerates target pickup in shadowed forest cover, though maximum 10x magnification limits long-range open country varmint precision.

Machined from 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, the 30mm main tube resists erector tube binding and external crush damage. Multi-coated extra-low dispersion optical glass elements enhance light throughput across twilight hunting hours. Submersible to IPX7 waterproof standards and argon purged, this optic measures 12.0 inches long and weighs 16.5 ounces with an anodized matte black surface finish.

Recoil Management Erector Load

Engineered for big-game cartridges, internal leaf springs withstand continuous 1000G recoil cycles from .30-06 Springfield and .300 Win Mag loads. Internal turret adjusters click in 1/4 MOA increments across 86 MOA travel, preserving zero alignment without erector spring hysteresis. Internal argon purging stops lens fogging between -20°F and 140°F.

Receiver Fitment Ring Spacing

The 30mm monotube provides 5.4 inches of ring mounting space, fitting short and standard bolt-action rifle receivers. Torque 30mm scope rings between 15 and 18 in-lbs and base clamp bolts to 35 in-lbs. The 44mm bell clears standard sporter-contour barrels using low or medium mounting rings.

Woodland Tracking Maintenance Schedule

Smooth diopter adjustment and positive magnification ring ribs allow fast focus manipulation with insulated gloves. This mid-power 2.5-10x optic is not engineered for precision ELR matches past 600 yards where high magnification dials are mandatory.

• Check scope ring screw tightness every 200 rounds
• Clean external glass using optical fluid and microfiber cloths every 500 rounds
• Check turret caps and O-rings every 12 months
