Lucid Rifle Scopes, billed as quality optics for budget-minded shooters, offers the L5 6-24X 50 mm for long-range, precision shooting. Built on a one-piece, 30 mm 6063 alumium main tube, the L5’s tactical-style turrets—which are lockable and re-zeroable—offer repeatable 1/8-m.o.a. adjustments for windage and elevation, and a total adjustment range of 50 m.o.a. in each direction. A side parallax adjustment turret provides a crisp target image over the scope’s entire magnification range. The unit’s L5 Reticle, located in the second focal plane, features a 1/8-m.o.a. center dot, bullet drop compensator dots spaced every 2 m.o.a. and windage dots placed 4 m.o.a. apart. A substantial optic measuring 15.25" long, weighing 24.5 ozs. and having a 34-mm ocular lens, the Lucid Rifle Scopes L5 6-24X 50 mm boasts 92 percent light transmission and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
