Features ZEROTECH TRACE SCOPE

Zerotech Trace Scope

The ZEROTECH TRACE scope model is a reference that we can consider hybrid, valid for sport shooting and hunting, more specifically for the most extreme stalkings. For this reason, we use a purely tactical reticle design, but in the second focal plane (SFP).

It is a robust rifle scope, with a 30 mm aeronautical aluminum tube. Matte black finish. The use of O-rings and argon gas purging make it completely waterproof and fog-proof.

Regarding the optics, this rifle scope uses high quality glass, the lenses being equipped with complete coatings that guarantee a light transmission of 92%. The images obtained are bright, sharp and clear, with good performance in low light conditions. To preserve the lenses, those that are in contact with the outside, have a proprietary coating to protect against scratches and abrasions. Something logical being a scope designed to operate in a country as sandy and dusty as Australia.

The increase wheel has a suitable knurling that allows an easy and fast manipulation. This ring has a protrusion, which in addition to facilitating its handling, indicates the midpoint of the magnification (HMI), which allows a quick selection of these magnifications to the touch and visually.

This rifle scope has quick diopter adjustment system adjustment. The eye distance, depending on the magnification, moves from 91-100 mm, which guarantees its safe use with any caliber, in addition the range is wide enough to face the objective quickly. As for the field of view at 100 m, this is 11.2 m at 3x and 1.9 m at 18x, good values for hunting and sports.

The turrets use the so-called Precision Turret System (PTS), proprietary from ZeroTech. These are visible and oversized, typical of a tactical or sports rifle scope. This rifle scope has a locking system that allows them to only be adjusted by previously pulling them, pushing towards the body of the scope they are locked. The lifting turret has a simple zero stop system, using a small 1.5 mm Allen key.

In terms of operation, the rifle scope has a clear and audible step-per-click, with the right balance between hardness and sensitivity to make them quick and easy to operate. Graduated in MOAs, each click is 0.25 MOAs, which is a 7.27mm variation at 100m. The maximum correction range in elevation is 70 MOAs and in drift it is also 70 MOAs. On the opposite side to this last turret, there is the parallax adjustment control, which surprises with its starting point in its configuration, which is only 25 m to infinity. A feature that those who use the scope with rimfire rifles will appreciate.

This hybrid-type rifle scope model, with a sporty orientation, but with great performance for the most extreme stalks, has a second focal plane (SFP) reticle. This model uses a so-called R3 reticle, a simple tactical design that flavors the thick posts seen on some hunting reticles. It lacks lighting, since the manufacturer promotes it as sports use.

The R3 reticle allows shooters to enjoy all aspects of a second focal plane (SFP) viewfinder. Note that when using a reticle in the second focal plane, it does not vary with magnification, keeping proportion to perform calculations only at maximum magnification. The R3 features a floating center point and 1 MOA undervoltages marked by dots with a dash mark every 4 MOA. Thick bars at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock make target acquisition easy.

In addition to the high-strength metal alloy caps, it comes standard with the removal tool for the same, an Allen wrench for zeroing the turrets, three spare screws for the same, high-quality microfiber cloth, manual instructions and explanatory graphic of the grid.

In a market as competitive as the current one, its assets are an exceptional quality-price ratio, accompanied by a foolproof robustness and several interesting technological innovations.
