Why Choose a 1-8x LPVO? Unmatched Versatility for Every Mission

The evolution of Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs) has revolutionized how shooters approach versatility. While 1-6x LPVOs have long been popular, Primary Arms listened to user feedback and pushed the boundaries by engineering their popular 1-6x design into a more capable 1-8x magnification range. This extended magnification provides a significant advantage, particularly when identifying targets or aiming at longer distances.

What problems does the 1-8x magnification solve for you?

• Close-Quarters Speed: At 1x magnification, this scope functions much like a red dot sight, offering an incredibly wide field of view (110.00 ft at 100 yards) for rapid target acquisition and instinctive shooting. This makes it ideal for dynamic situations, home defense, or fast-paced competitions where speed is paramount.
• Medium-Range Precision: Cranking up to 8x magnification allows for precise shot placement on targets out to 800 yards, especially when paired with the advanced ACSS reticle. This expanded top-end magnification provides clearer target identification and more refined aiming points, crucial for ethical hunting shots or hitting distant steel.
• Adaptability: Whether you're transitioning from room-clearing drills to engaging targets across an open field, the 1-8x range means you don't need to switch optics. This single scope covers a vast spectrum of practical applications, streamlining your gear and improving your efficiency.
• Enhanced Target ID: The higher 8x power assists significantly in identifying smaller targets, distinguishing details, and confirming target zones at distances where 6x might leave you wanting more clarity.

The Revolutionary ACSS Reticle: Simplify Your Shot

At the heart of the Primary Arms SLx 1-8x24mm SFP Rifle Scope is the patented Advanced Combined Sighting System (ACSS) reticle. This isn't just another crosshair; it's an intelligent aiming system designed to dramatically simplify complex ballistic calculations, allowing you to focus on the target, not the math. The specific ACSS 5.56/5.45/.308 reticle is calibrated for some of the most popular rifle calibers, offering direct solutions for common shooting challenges.

How does the ACSS reticle help you shoot better?

• Integrated Bullet Drop Compensation (BDC): Forget manual elevation adjustments or guessing holdovers. The ACSS features an intuitive BDC ladder that provides accurate aiming points for various distances, typically from 100 to 800 yards. This means you can quickly engage targets at varying ranges without touching your turrets once zeroed.
• Wind Holds: Wind is a constant challenge for shooters. The ACSS reticle incorporates precise wind hold-off points, allowing you to effortlessly compensate for crosswinds without complex calculations. This is a game-changer for consistency in outdoor shooting.
• Moving Target Leads: Engaging moving targets, whether in hunting or competition, is notoriously difficult. The ACSS reticle includes dedicated leads to help you track and hit targets moving at common speeds, significantly increasing your first-shot hit probability.
• Second Focal Plane (SFP) Design: As a Second Focal Plane optic, the ACSS reticle maintains a consistent size regardless of the magnification setting. This simplifies its use for speed at 1x and ensures the BDC and other advanced features are accurate at the maximum 8x magnification. To utilize the BDC, wind holds, and moving target leads effectively, you'll need to "crank it up" to the full 8x power, where the reticle's subtensions are calibrated.
• Intuitive and Fast: This combination of features makes the scope incredibly fast and instinctive for engagements from 0 to 300 yards, where the bold center aiming point is paramount. Beyond 300 yards, and up to 800 yards, it transforms into a precise instrument for long-range accuracy, leveraging all the detailed features of the ACSS reticle.

Illuminated Performance: Day or Night Visibility

Visibility of your reticle is critical in all lighting conditions. The Primary Arms SLx 1-8x24mm boasts a highly effective red illumination system with 12 distinct brightness settings. This comprehensive range ensures optimal visibility in any environment.

What does the illumination offer you?

• Daylight Brightness: The brightest settings are potent enough to be clearly visible even against bright daylight, providing a fast, red dot-like aiming point. This is crucial for rapid target acquisition in well-lit conditions.
• Low Light Capability: The lower settings are perfect for dawn, dusk, or heavily shaded environments, preventing the reticle from blooming and obscuring the target.
• Night Vision Compatibility (Non-Compatible): While not designed for use with night vision devices, the 12 settings still provide ample versatility for various lighting scenarios you might encounter during the day or twilight hours.
• CR2032 Battery: Powered by a common CR2032 3V Lithium Coin battery, this scope offers reliable illumination with an easily replaceable power source.

Built to Last: Unyielding Durability and Optical Excellence

The SLx line's reputation for ruggedness is well-earned, and the 1-8x24mm scope is no exception. It's engineered to perform under challenging conditions, ensuring your optic is as reliable as your rifle.

Key durability and optical features:

• Water and Fog Proof: Nitrogen purged and O-ring sealed, this scope is completely impervious to water ingress and internal fogging, guaranteeing a clear sight picture even in rain, humidity, or fluctuating temperatures. You can trust it to perform in any weather.
• Fully Multicoated Lenses: All air-to-glass surfaces are treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective coatings. This maximizes light transmission, resulting in a brighter, clearer image with enhanced contrast and true color rendition. This is vital for target identification and precision, especially in challenging lighting.
• Robust Construction: With a 30mm tube diameter and a compact length of just 10.0 inches, the scope is built to withstand the recoil of demanding calibers and the rigors of field use. Weighing in at 16.9 ounces, it strikes an excellent balance between durability and manageable weight.
• Generous Eye Relief: With eye relief ranging from 3.50 inches at 1x to 3.30 inches at 8x, the scope provides a comfortable and forgiving sight picture, reducing eye strain and allowing for flexible mounting options, even with heavy recoiling firearms.
• Precise Adjustments: The 1/2 MOA click value turrets offer precise and repeatable adjustments for zeroing, ensuring your shots land exactly where you intend.
