HUNTER 3-15×44
A HUNTING SCOPE DESIGNED FOR PRECISION RIFLE SHOOTERS
The Apex Hunter 3-15×44 is a hunting riflescope made for the precision rifle shooter. All of the features are a perfected balance between usability, weight, durability, light transmission and image clarity. Paired with the exclusive HLR™ (Hunter Long Range) reticle, it’s a deadly and accurate combination for both close-up and extended-range hunting scenarios. Available in both Illuminated and Non-Illuminated versions, it’s destined to meet the needs of all types of hunters.
As always, uncompromising quality components like our stainless steel internals, an integrated and removable throw lever in our oversized zoom ring, a fast-focus eyepiece, a big eye box and generous eye-relief are standard on all of our scopes. When you buy Apex, Precision Comes Standard®!
THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED, EXPERTLY BUILT
We start off with a solid block of 6061-T6 Aircraft Grade Aluminum billet and mill it down to a perfectly concentric 30mm tube.
We then soak it in a proprietary solution so that it exceeds MilSpec Type III Hardness and Abrasion Resistance standards. That’s how it gets that signature matte-black finish.
Our erector system is built with stainless steel components for a positive and distinctive “click”, guaranteeing repeatability and durability for the life of the product. No matter what the M.D. or the elements throw your way, you’ll be confident your riflescope will be up to the task without skipping a beat or getting off-zero.
The optical components are made using the highest quality Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) Japanese glass, which are ground down and polished with state-of-the-art equipment. The optical system uses a set of finely tuned APO (apochromatic) lenses, and when combined with the Prime ED glass provides an unmatched clarity of image, depth of field, and field of view. Every lens is meticulously inspected by our production engineers before it goes into one of our scopes.
Finally, the entire system is inspected once-again, then assembled by hand in a Certified Clean Environment. The final step of the assembly is dry-Argon purging and sealing, ensuring that the entire optical system is shockproof, fogproof, and IP67-rated dustproof and waterproof.
HLR = HUNTER LONG RANGE
When it came time to design the most important aspect of this riflescope we knew that we had to get it right.
We turned to some of the most experienced hunters and guides that we knew to ask them what was important in a long range hunting reticle.
We took that feedback, as well as the smashing success from the CLR™ competition reticle, and created what we feel is a fantastic all around hunting and long range shooting reticle, that is useful at 3X all the way through to 15X magnification.
The incredible input from these experienced shooters, along with our internal team’s exhaustive research and development has resulted in the Apex Hunter Long Range™ (HLR) Reticle, exclusively available in our flagship Apex Hunter precision riflescope.
It’s available in Illuminated (red) and Non-Illuminated versions, giving you ultimate flexibility in choice. The Non-Illuminated version of the scope is lighter and has a slightly slimmer overall profile, so the tradeoff in Illumination vs. weight is something that the we leave for each hunter to decide for themselves and their particular use-case.
