Description

The Schmidt & Bender 5-25×56 PM II riflescope is one of the most respected high-performance optics in the world, used by military special forces, law-enforcement precision teams, and serious long-range shooters. Constructed around Schmidt & Bender’s legendary optical engineering, this scope combines a wide magnification range (5×–25×) with a 56 mm objective lens to deliver sharp, bright images across long distances and in low-light conditions.

The riflescope features a first-focal-plane (FFP) reticle with illumination, allowing accurate holdovers at any magnification. Multiple reticle options (such as P4FL, H59, MSR2 and others) cater to different shooting preferences and applications. Parallax adjustment is achieved via a side focus dial that ranges from 10 meters to infinity, helping maintain clarity and point-of-aim consistency at varying distances.

The turret system exemplifies tactical functionality — with options like Double Turn (DT) elevation and More Tactile Clicks (MTC) or Locking Turrets (LT) — offering tactile, precise adjustments (.1 mrad or ¼ MOA per click) and large travel ranges for extreme long-range corrections. The scope tube is a robust 34 mm one-piece body, nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for waterproof and fogproof performance, and built to withstand harsh field conditions.
