It’s awesome to see more manufacturers coming out with low power variable optics with enough zoom to enter the medium power category. A true 1x, no magnification setting allows running with both eyes open and using the illuminated reticle like a red dot, then cranking up the zoom lever to 10x (in Riton’s case here) allows for precision at longer ranges. It’s a great time to be alive!

Somehow, Riton has managed to launch a 1-10x scope in a more compact size and tube diameter than I’ve seen anywhere else. We’ll have to get our hands on one to see how the optics look! In the meantime, the specs sound good and the price is aggressive. Riton’s press release follows:

Riton Optics Announces the All-New 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 Riflescope

Tucson, AZ (May 2023) – The long-awaited First Focal Plane Low Variable Power Optic (LVPO) has arrived from RITON Optics with the unveiling of the 5 TACTIX 1-10×24. Engineered to outperform and overdeliver, the 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 has superior clarity, red dot capabilities with 1x power, and precision on 10x power for those long distance shots.

Capped, zero-resettable windage and elevation turrets provide the option of protected or exposed turrets based on usage. Precise and audible 1/10 MRAD turrets allow rapid adjustments for those who prefer to dial their turrets. For shooters who prefer to hold over and not dial their turrets, the illuminated 3OT Christmas tree reticle is the answer.
Windage and elevation adjustments on the 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 are made with tactile, low-profile turrets that offer 1/10 MRAD adjustments. Sturdy, machined aluminum turret caps ensure extreme durability and confidence in just about any environment.

“The 5 TACTIX LVPO has been a long time coming and we are thrilled it is finally here,” said Jerimiah Alexander, Director of Product Riton Optics. “We have spent a lot of time, research, and development creating a riflescope that would excel in any environment and exceed expectations.”

Using 6061-T6 aluminum, the 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 is a great choice for anyone who wants a quality, versatile riflescope that is robust and accurate. With the patent-pending dual lever throw system, shooters have the ability to increase magnification from 1x to half to full magnification utilizing the dual lever throw system without adjusting your shooting position. This feature is available on all 2023 Riton 3, 5 and 7 series optics.

As with every magnified optic from Riton Optics, the 5 TACTIX 1-10×24 is also backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty and the Riton Promise, providing users with a lifetime of confidence in the field.
