Muzzleloading hunters now demand more from their rifles and loads than ever before, and here is a scope designed and built to fully tap all of that performance. The Leatherwood / Hi-Lux “HIGH PERFORMANCE MUZZLELOADING” scope is the idea of today’s leading modern in-line muzzleloading rifle authority – Toby Bridges. In addition to the primary crosshair, the 3-9x40mm HPML scope features three lower short crosshairs that provide reticles for shooting at longer ranges. The positions of these additional reticles were determined by thousands of rounds fired with today’s more popular saboted muzzleloading bullets at a wide range of velocities. With a high ballistic coefficient 250 grain polymer tipped spire-point bullet, shot at 1,950 to 2,000 f.p.s., this scope can be sighted “on” at 100 yards, and the lower crossbars will point the load “on” at 200…225… and 250 yards. Each HPML scope will be shipped with a chart that provides points of impact for other popular loads and bullets. This scope has black matte and sliver finishes.
FEATURES
1. Turret Covers - Covers over the windage and elevation turrets provide another level of protection for ensuring positioning of erector unit stays uniform.
2. Multi-Coated Lenses - All exterior air-glass lenses are treated with DiamondTuff14™ to ensure optimal light transmission for more visibility in low light situations.
3. Nitrogen Gas Purged - All scopes are purged with nitrogen gas to ensure they remain fogproof for wide range of temperatures.
4. Waterproof - Rubber O-ring prevents moisture, dust and debris particles from penetrating the scope.
5. Second Focal Plane - The reticle stays the same size even when adjusting the magnification of the scope. Allows operator to easily estimate range.
6. Perma-Coat - Soft-luster blue-black finish coat is applied to the body of the scope. Ensures coat is wear resistant and protects exterior from scratches.
7. Tri-Center Spring Tension - Offers more accurate adjustment tracking for windage and elevation.
8. One piece Aluminum Tube - Single piece rifle scope construction allows for optimal waterproofing and tensile strength design.
