Vector Optics Tauron 6-24x50 HD MOA FFP is a modern high-magnification riflescope designed primarily for PRS shooting discipline. It combines a variable magnification of 6–24× with a 50 mm objective lens, allowing precise aiming even in poorer light conditions.
Optical system
The riflescope uses a variable magnification of 6–24×, covering shooting from medium to longer distances. The 50 mm objective lens lets in enough light, so the image remains legible even in low-light conditions. The manufacturer once again relies on the proven LaREE HD lens system with FMC (Fully-Multi Coated) anti-reflective coating, ensuring a consistently bright and sharp image.
Reticle
This model uses the VTA-4 reticle designed for the PRS (Precision Rifle Series) shooting discipline, located in the first focal plane (FFP), so the measuring elements of the reticle retain their valid values across the entire magnification range. This is advantageous for shooters who work with holdovers or wind and elevation corrections directly using the reticle. The reticle is graduated in MOA units, which makes it easier to match the reticle with the adjustment turrets when transferring corrections.
The center of the reticle is equipped with red illumination in 6 levels, powered by one CR2032 battery (not included).
Adjustment and parallax
The riflescope is equipped with exposed turrets with 1/4 MOA click values. The turrets feature Turret Lock (you need to pull the turret up to turn it) and Zero Stop (easy return to a pre-set zero). Parallax is adjustable from 10 yards to infinity.
There is also a diopter adjustment range of +-2D, allowing the shooter to fine-tune reticle sharpness according to their eyesight without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Construction and durability
The riflescope body is made from a single piece of 6061-T6 aluminium alloy and uses a larger 34 mm tube. The matte finish reduces unwanted reflections and is resistant to normal mechanical wear during outdoor use.
The interior is nitrogen-filled to prevent fogging of the optics during rapid changes in temperature and humidity. The riflescope has an IP67 rating, so it can withstand rain and humid environments.
This model is able to withstand 1000 G (unit of gravitational acceleration), which is equivalent to the recoil of firearms in calibres .300, .308 and .338.
