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.

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%.

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.

Smooth Zoom Control

Magnification reference numbers are viewable from the shooter’s position.

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.

Interchangeable Turret Technology

All Monarchs can be customized with accessory target-style windage and elevation adjustment knobs and caps. See accessories.

One-Piece Main Body Tubes

For minimum weight and maximum strength and durability.

Waterproof, Fogproof, Shockproof

Provides absolute confidence on the most extreme hunts.

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.

Interchangeable Turret Technology

Long range models featuring 1/8-MOA adjustments include low profile adjustments w/ caps, target-style high profile knobs w/ caps and tapered, easy grip knobs.

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.
