Key Features

Patented BDC reticle: Every new Monarch riflescope model is available in BDC to allow hunters to hold “dead-on” at ranges exceeding those previously thought possible. The BDC’s unique see-through ballistic circles offer an incredible advantage for long range shooting—yet allow a normal sight picture for shorter-range shots where the crosshair itself is the aiming point.
Monarch Eye Box technology: Every model features an impressive 4-time zoom range and four inches of constant, non-critical eye relief. A massive ocular lens delivers a huge, exceptionally bright, high-resolution sight picture.
Enhanced mount ring spacing: Provides mounting to virtually any rifle action regardless of caliber—even magnum-length actions. 2.5-10x50 and 2-8x32 models may require extension rings in some cases.
One-piece main body tubes: For minimum weight and maximum strength and durability.
Sunshade adaptable: Optional accessory sunshade eliminates glare in particularly bright conditions and keeps dust and rain off of the objective lens on rainy days or in dusty environments.
Ultra ClearCoat™ optical system: Nikon has engineered the entire optical system to provide the shooter with a bright, sharp, incredibly flat sight picture and light transmission up to its theoretical maximum—95%.
Smooth zoom control: Magnification reference numbers are viewable from the shooter’s position.
Interchangeable turret technology: All Monarchs can be customized with accessory target-style windage and elevation adjustment knobs and caps. See accessories.
Waterproof, fogproof, shockproof: Nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed.
Locking side focus parallax adjustment: Standard on all Long Range monarch riflescopes, Nikon’s easy-to-reach dial allows you to quickly focus from a shooting position.
