This riflescope features a precision Rimfire .17 HMR reticle that provides bullet drop compensating (BDC) aim points out to 375 yards, tailored for 17-grain polymer tip ammunition travelling at approximately 2550 fps. Designed to be used at 16x magnification, this reticle allows accurate holdover and zeroing, while still giving flexibility at lower magnifications for wider field scanning.
The inclusion of a 50mm objective lens, paired with Hawke’s H2 optical system and 11-layer fully multi-coated lenses, means you get optimum light transmission and high clarity even in lower-light shooting conditions such as early morning or dusk. Combined with multi-stage red and green illumination, the reticle remains visible without becoming intrusive or obscuring your view.
Built for real-world conditions, this scope is constructed from a single-piece 1-inch mono-tube chassis that maintains zero even under heavy rimfire recoil. Capped low-profile turrets ensure protection against knocks in the field, while the adjustable objective lens allows shooters to eliminate parallax errors for increased accuracy.
Whether you’re zeroing at 50 yards or pushing the envelope beyond 300 yards, this scope adapts easily to changing conditions thanks to its fast-focus eyebell and high-torque zoom ring. The generous eye relief of 3.5 inches offers comfort and safety, especially during extended sessions.
With a compact length of 15.3 inches and weighing just 620g, the Hawke Vantage IR 4-16x50 AO Rimfire .17 HMR is a balanced, capable optic built for performance and longevity—offering rimfire shooters a powerful tool to enhance every shot. As with all Hawke optics, it is backed by the Hawke No-Fault Lifetime Warranty.
