Sentinel 8-34×56 Gen II SFP Rifle Scope SCOL-61

The Sentinel 8-34×56 SFP Scope is designed for benchrest and precision target shooting, combining high magnification with a specialised VSE-7 MOA reticle. Its 8-34x magnification range supports detailed target observation, while the 56mm objective lens and fully multi-coated optics help deliver a clear sight picture across the magnification range.

The second focal plane (SFP) reticle features a fine 0.15 MOA illuminated floating center dot and a Christmas tree pattern. As a result, shooters have a defined aiming point alongside additional reticle references for holdovers and follow-up corrections. The reticle also includes 0.25 MOA wind dots to support windage references and BDC holdovers.

Furthermore, the 30mm tube provides an elevation adjustment range of at least 55 MOA, with precise 1/8 MOA clicks. An elevation zero stop and revolution indicator make it easier to track turret adjustments, while the windage turret lock helps prevent accidental changes.

High Magnification for Benchrest Shooting

The Sentinel Gen II offers 8-34x magnification, allowing you to observe targets in detail at higher power. Meanwhile, the 56mm objective lens works with the fully multi-coated optical system to support light transmission and image clarity.

The field of view ranges from 12.57 feet to 2.98 feet at 100 yards, or 4.19 metres to 0.99 metres at 100 metres. Therefore, the scope provides a wider viewing area at lower magnification and a narrower view for detailed observation at higher magnification.

VSE-7 MOA Christmas Tree Reticle

The VSE-7 MOA etched-glass reticle combines a fine aiming point with additional reference marks. Its 0.15 MOA illuminated floating center dot is designed for precise aiming on smaller targets at mid- to long-range distances.

In addition, the Christmas tree pattern provides multiple reference points for holdovers and follow-up corrections. The 0.25 MOA wind dots offer further references for windage adjustments and ballistic drop compensation (BDC) holdovers.

Because this is a second focal plane scope, the reticle maintains a consistent apparent size as you change magnification. However, reticle subtensions are accurate at the magnification specified by the manufacturer, so consult the manual before using the reticle for measurement or ranging.

Precise 1/8 MOA Adjustments

The 30mm tube features an elevation adjustment range of at least 55 MOA and a windage adjustment range of at least 40 MOA. Each click represents 1/8 MOA, allowing for fine incremental adjustments.

Additionally, the elevation turret features a zero stop and revolution indicator. These features help you return to your preset zero point and keep track of turret rotations. The windage turret lock also helps prevent unwanted changes during handling or transport.

Side Focus and Reticle Illumination

The side-focus system adjusts from 15 yards to infinity, helping bring targets at different distances into focus. Meanwhile, the diopter compensation range of -2 to +2 allows you to adjust the reticle focus to suit your eyesight.

The illuminated centre dot features six red illumination settings and an on/off switch. Powered by a CR2032 battery, the illumination system allows you to adapt the aiming point to different lighting conditions.

Durable Gen II Construction

The Sentinel 8-34×56 Gen II features a 6063-T6 aluminium alloy housing with a matte black finish. Its nitrogen-filled construction helps prevent internal fogging, while the IPX4 rating provides protection against water splashes.

The scope also has a stated shock rating of 750 G. These construction features make it suitable for outdoor use when handled according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
