The 3-18x50mm is equipped with the ACSS HUD DMR 308 reticle, the most advanced moving target reticle in the world. Capable of guiding the shooter to first shot hits on moving targets out to a never before seen 600 yards, HUD DMR even accounts for three different target speeds. You can't hit any target if you don't know how far out they are, so HUD DMR takes the guess work out of range estimation. The integrated ranging system quickly and accurately provides target ranging, wind holds, and bullet drop compensation out to a full 1,000 yards. Tuned for common .308 Winchester loads, this reticle can be used with some .223 Remington loadings as well.
Featuring clear glass, forgiving eye relief/exit pupil characteristics, and efficient industrial design, the Gen II 3-18x50 FFP Scope with ACSS HUD DMR reticle is backed up by the Primary Arms Lifetime Warranty.

Premium scope far above its cost!
by kelly -
I've been a PA customer since 2010 but only bought a few prism scopes. Always heard about PA's scopes being exceptional and on par with the high end brands.
For comparison my Swarovski Z5i series scope. Blown away by the comparison to this PA SLx 3-18 FFP. IMO the edge to edge clarity, zoom range clarity, reticle lines/refinement, and illumination are all easily on par with the PA SLx all day long. Only very slight difference is the turret's adjustment tactile feel seems more pronounced with the Z5i. Also a faint lens overall clarity difference. Bottom line is this scope has outstanding features and performance at its price point. Good luck finding another brand that matches Primary Arms performance and quality to cost. I can only imagine the performance grade of PA's Plx series of scopes. BTW PA's red dot series are insanely high end and cover every application you can imagine. Super compact and killer performance just like their scopes!
Good rifle scope

This is a good rifle scope for .308 Win/.223 Rem with arguably one of the best and most intuitive ACSS reticles. Glass quality is very good for this class. My only complaint is that the turret adjustments are mushy and not as tactile as the 4-16x44 version. I would like to see a version added for 6.5 creedmoor, because these HUD DMR scopes are great for the price.
Hits well above the price point

Received this GEN II as a warranty replacement for the GEN I version. PA made several improvements which puts this scope on par with optics costing 3x as much. My only gripe is that the sun shade and ARD that I had purchased for the GEN I no longer work with the GEN II due to the latter have a slightly larger objective bell. Otherwise, possibly the perfect ACSS HUD DMR 308 optic.
Exactly what I was looking for
