Schmidt & Bender Meta 3-18x42 Illuminated SFP L7 1cm cw BDC II LT / Posicon CT Side Focus Rifle Scope
- Second Focal Plane Illuminated L7 Reticle
- BDC II - B Elevation turret : Allows you to set you ballistic turret to your rifles ballistics. The turret has 6 position indicators marked simply with 1-6 which correlate to 100 yards / meters to 600 yards / maters. The system allows you to completely custom the numbers positions on the turret to ensure they are matched to your rifle. If you are using interchangeable barrels or silencers the shooter can adjust the position indicators easily so it can match not only the gun but the environmental conditions. The shooter can also look to purchase an interchangeable turret cap which matches the modified ballistic of the rifle so the scope can match whatever set up you are requiring it to. A Mode Lever locks or unlocks the turret. The BDC II-B turret – just like ST II-B (see page 11) – gives the hunter the fastest and most precise turret dialling solution.
- Lightweight 42 mm Objective provides a an exceptional FOV and superb low light performance dispite its compact nature.
- Illumination located on the Side Focus System : AKA LPI (Illumination Parallax Integrated): 11 functional steps with “off”
- Side Focus down to 20m : perfect for pairing with Thermal or NV add ons
- 30mm main tube
- Versatile magnification range
The brand new Schmidt & Bender 3-18x42 Illuminated is the latest development in the Schmidt and Bender range of top quality rifle scopes and it presents the market with an ultra compact, lightweight and versatile optic that is perfect for a wide range of hunting applications from general vermin control to deer stalking on the hills of Scotland.

LP7 SFP (Second Focal Plane) reticle advantages:
Although an SFP reticle, the design of the LP7 reticle enables range estimation:
The “true magnification” of the 3-18x42 is marked by a visual and tactile pin on the magnification ring at 9x power.
At 9x zoom:
A roebuck stands at about 100 m if it fits between the reticle centre and horizontal bar (≙ 70 cm). He stands at about 50 m if he fits between the horizontal bars (≙ 140 cm).
At 18x zoom:
A roebuck stands at about 200 m if it fits between the reticle centre and the horizontal bar (≙ 70 cm). He stands at about 100 m if he fits between the horizontal bars (≙ 140 cm).
