Minox ZX5i, for short and long-range shooting

The 30mm riflescope tube and a 5x magnification offer the user maximum flexibility and precision for short and long-range shooting distances.

The large field of view enables quick aiming and a reliable target acquisition. The scopes feature a smooth power adjustment and an easy-to-adjust rubber-armored eyepiece that enables quick focusing on the subject in view.

The extended eye relief of 100 mm is extremely beneficial to users wearing eyeglasses and when using larger calibers. The inner components of the ZX5i Line models are protected by a shock-resistant body made of special anodized aluminum that is commonly used in general aviation applications. Furthermore, all the ZX5i scopes are purged with argon gas to prevent fogging and corrosion on the inside.

For hunting in poor light conditions, the new ZX5i scopes are available with an infinitely adjustable illuminated reticle that automatically switches off after 2 hours. Reticle versions available are the BDC and #4. These characteristics made them the ideal choice for hunters in any environment. 

The ZX5i 2-10x50, for example, is suited even for .22 rimfire rifles used for general pest control duties, with a wide field of view also at short distances. The #4 reticle is in the second focal plane so it will remain constant in size regardless of the magnification setting. The knurling on the focus ring allows for a fine control even wearing gloves.
