Most benchrest shooters ignored ‘It’ during their competition, and you?

Benchrest shooting is trending in recent years. In air gun competitions, the longest range reaches 250 meters, shooters use extremely expensive and accurate air gun and scopes. Well, competitions under 100 meters are still a mainstream, meanwhile, 25m benchrest shooting is the most popular.

The image above shows 25x mag.

Nearly all benchrest events allow riflescopes, therefore precision optics are required and what’s more critical is using an appropriate reticle.

Based on the Target dimensions provided by World Rimfire and Air Rifle Benchrest Federation, Vector Optics designed a brand new reticle for those who participate in, or want to participate in, rimfire & air rifle benchrest competitions at 25 meters.

Since high magnification scopes are generally preferred, scope magnifications up to 40×, 50×, 60× or higher are widely used.

But why not use a specific reticize to optimize your shooting? Let me introduce the new VE Sentinel-X 10-40x50 with S.E.A reticle. This reticle is used at 40× magnification and applied to 25m benchrest shooting. The center dot size is just 1.5mm, therefore the 39mm diameter target can be totally locked within the reticle, as picture 1 shown.
