MTC Optics 4-16x50 AO Cobra F1, SF Rifle Scope Illuminated SCB2 Reticle, 1/4 MOA, 30mm Tube

Hunters and plinkers alike will appreciate the accuracy, consistency and durability of MTC Optics’ Cobra F1 4-16x50 rifle scope.

According to the manufacturer, the “F1” designation refers to this model’s first focal-plane/lens-reticle configuration. With its first focal plane sight picture, the size of the scope’s reticle changes in proportion to the magnification throughout its entire range, as opposed to a second focal plane reticle, in which the crosshairs and related hash marks stay the same size throughout the entire magnification range.

This first focal plane sight picture combines with the second-generation SBC2 (Small Caliber Ballistic - second generation) crosshair in the Cobra F1 4-16x50 scope to help make it especially well-suited for pest elimination and small game hunting, according to the manufacturer.

“[The first focal plane sight picture] is particularly advantageous when allowing hold-over and hold-under on targets - scenarios aided further by MTC’s… SCB2 crosshair that provides numerous aiming points to counter trajectory and windage deviation,” MTC writes. “The… reticle offers an incredible amount of aim points with a floating cross for clear and accurate target acquisition. This is ideal for use on small targets. The 1 mil dot square around the cross gives a rapid acquisition for small fast moving targets such as rats. When shooting at small targets or when bullet drop becomes critical the versatility of this reticule becomes clear.”

Add that to the MTC Optics Cobra F1 4-16x50 rifle scope’s other features (like edge-to-edge multi-coated lenses, a side parallax adjustment, six-setting adjustable reticle illumination and full water, fog and shock protection, just to name a few), and you’ve got a versatile, well-built optic that will undoubtedly help make your favorite air rifle shine, no matter what the conditions.
