Crimson Trace Hardline 4-16x42mm Scope with BDC .223/.556 Reticle

The Hardline 4-16x42mm scope from Crimson Trace is a variable magnification optic built around a 30mm tube with a BDC reticle designed for .223/.556 ammunition. The 4-16x magnification range covers both close-range and extended-distance shooting, while the second focal plane reticle placement keeps the BDC holdovers consistent across all magnification settings. Eye relief of 3.7 inches provides adequate standoff distance for most shooting positions and setups.

The scope features a side focus adjustment for parallax correction and quick spring-loaded zero reset exposed turrets that allow fast turret adjustments without removing the scope from the firearm. All optics are coated for light transmission and clarity. The entire assembly is shockproof, waterproof, and fogproof—standard requirements for reliable field use. At 20 ounces and 13.5 inches overall, it balances optical capability with manageable weight and length. The aluminum construction keeps the optic durable while remaining relatively lightweight for its feature set.
