instalment plans from £184.08/month

The SVIII 5-40x56 ED is a Zero-Stop First Focal Plane Rifle Scope with Free 40mm Rings features ED glass, a new internal zero-stop mechanism, and a First Focal Plane illuminated LRM reticle.
Designed for long-range target shooting and hunting, the scope provides 20 MILS of windage and 40 MILS of elevation with .1 Mil tactical knobs.
The windage and elevation knobs have 10 MILS per revolution. The new 40 mm body tube is waterproof, shockproof and nitrogen charged. The minimum focus is 10 meters.
The SVIII features ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass provides Long Range Shooters the brightness and clarity required for accurate target acquisition. The large oversized tactical knobs are finished in black matte with high visibility markings to quickly identify your scopes settings.
The Windage knob is marked for left and right so there is no second-guessing when making adjustments. The new internal zero-stop mechanism provides a tactile and audible positive stop for dead-on zero settings.
For superior performance, Sightron created a new MC-777 multi-coated lens coating for increased light transmission and improved clarity. Sightron’s patented ExacTrack Windage and Elevation system is standard on all models.
All reticles in this series are illuminated with a side-mounted 11 position off/on rotary type dial which uses the CR2032 Battery. The side-mounted focus system has been redesigned for improved minimum focus performance.
