Meopta MeoHunter R5 4-20x50 RD SFP

The Meopta MeoHunter R5 4-20x50 is designed to meet the needs of modern hunters, offering technical features rarely found in this price range. It occupies a more affordable segment of the market, yet provides mechanical solutions typically seen in significantly more expensive scopes.

Key Mechanical Features

Quick-Release and Reset Turrets The scope is equipped with open yet quick-release elevation and windage turrets. The turrets operate on a "pop-up" principle: lift the turret to adjust, and press it down to lock the setting. This allows for rapid corrections at various distances without the worry of unintentional adjustments while carrying the firearm. The clicks are clear (1 cm / 100 m), and the turrets are easy to reset after sighting.

Illuminated Red Dot (RD) The scope includes an 11-level brightness adjustment for the red dot, optimized for both low-light and bright daylight conditions. The adjustment dial has intermediate stops, enabling quick power-off and restoration to the previous brightness with a single click. The 2-hour AUTO-OFF function ensures the battery doesn't deplete during storage.

Adjustable Parallax Unlike many lower-priced scopes, the MeoHunter R5 features side-mounted parallax adjustment (from 15 meters to infinity). This guarantees an accurate point of aim and a sharp image at all distances, which is critical, especially when shooting at 20x magnification.
