Vector Optics Continental x8 3-24x56 ED Fiber SFP Hunting Scope - engineered for plain and big game hunting.
Uncompromising optical performance
At the heart of the 3-24x56 ED Fiber is an advanced optical system built around German Schott HT glass, ED lens elements, LaREE high-definition glass and VePRO fully multi-coated surfaces. This combination is engineered to achieve about 93% light transmission, delivering a vivid, crystal-clear and high-contrast image that helps you separate animals from background and read detail even as the light fades. The 56 mm objective gathers plenty of light for early morning and late evening hunting, without compromising image sharpness.
German #4 fiber hunting reticle – The etched German #4 reticle with fiber centre dot is purpose-designed for plain and big game hunting. Bold outer posts and a fine central aiming area provide rapid target acquisition, while the fibre dot remains clearly visible even under very bright sunlight, making for fast, instinctive shot placement.
German Schott ED glass – German Schott high-transmission lenses, ED elements, LaREE HD glass and VePRO fully multi-coated surfaces work together to produce a bright, high-contrast sight picture with excellent detail and colour fidelity throughout the zoom range.
Wide 3–24x magnification range – At 3x, the scope offers a useful field of view for closer encounters, woodland use and more reactive shots. At 24x, it gives the magnification needed for precise shot placement on smaller targets or at extended ranges in open terrain.
30 mm tube with generous adjustment range – The 30 mm monotube maximises internal travel, providing 80 MOA of elevation and 80 MOA of windage adjustment. Fine 1/4 MOA clicks support precise, repeatable zeroing and practical dialling when needed, while capped turrets help to prevent accidental movement during active hunting.
Side focus – Side focus starting at approximately 18.3 m and extending to infinity allows you to remove parallax and maintain a sharp image from closer practice distances to longer hunting shots.
Refined fibre illumination – An 11-step illumination system drives the fibre centre dot, keeping your aiming point visible in everything from first light to strong midday sun, without overpowering the reticle structure.
Comfortable, forgiving eye relief – A constant 95 mm eye relief supports a stable head position and safe, comfortable shooting, even on harder-recoiling hunting calibres. The forgiving eye box helps you mount quickly and stay on target from standing, kneeling or improvised field positions.
Built to endure
The Continental x8 3-24x56 ED Fiber SFP Hunting Scope is built on a robust 30 mm 6061-T6 aluminium alloy tube with a durable matte black finish. It is IP67 waterproof, fully dust-tight, nitrogen filled to prevent internal fogging and shock-tested to 750 G, so it can handle rain, snow, dust, temperature changes and repeated recoil without losing zero. As part of the Continental hunting line, it is designed as a long-term partner for demanding hunters.
