The ZEISS LRP S3 scope has an impressive total elevation travel to engage even the most distant targets.
The ZEISS LRP S3 will sit alongside the LRP S5 to form the company’s first focal plane riflescope product family. “With the ZEISS LRP product family, we have expanded our riflescope portfolio to provide highly reliable optics for successful long-range precision shooting and long-distance hunting. The LRP S5 is the flagship product of our high-end ZEISS LRP product family, the LRP S3 offers a high-end option to enter this segment,” stated Bjoern Pados, Product Manager Hunting and Shooting for ZEISS Consumer Products.
The ZEISS S3 will be available in two models, both of which come in either milliradian (MRAD) or minute-of-angle (MOA) configurations. The LRP S3 425-50 has up to 46.5 MRAD or 160 MOA of total elevation travel, and the LRP S3 636-56 has 32 MRAD or 110 MOA, ensuring bullet impact even on distant targets.
The LRP S3 utilises ZEISS’ external elevation turret with enhanced engraving for precise shot placement. Together with the ballistic stop, which provides an absolute and true return to zero, and the external locking windage turret, the LRP S3 models offer you easy access for immediate wind correction and a locking feature to secure the setting.
Advanced optics for detailed and precise images
The LRP S3 is equipped with ZEISS optics allowing you to quickly locate and define your targets. This riflescope utilises extra-low dispersion (ED) lens elements and ZEISS’ multi-layer proprietary T* lens coating to offer precise colour fidelity, image brightness and edge-to-edge sharpness within the entire field-of-view. With light transmission of 90% you can identify the target clearly and easily and ZEISS’ protective LotuTecTM lens coating repels dust, dirt, and fingerprints.
Daylight visible illuminated reticles for intuitive aiming
The first focal plane reticles ZF-MOAi and ZF-MRi represent MOA and MRAD reticle designs. “Each incorporates distinct, clean, and easy-to-understand reference marks along the main horizontal and vertical lines of the reticle”, explained Brown.
The LRP S3 offers fine line reticle subtensions and floating centre dots which are great for both precision shooters and long-range hunters alike. Only the centre section of the reticle illuminates for the most precise point of aim even when viewing against challenging targets or in harsher lighting conditions. There is the option of either red or green illumination and five intensity levels.
Robust and compact for usage in rough terrain
The LRP S3 is not only compact and robust, but it has been engineered for extreme usage in rough terrain: there is a 34mm aluminum main tube mono bloc housing, shock resistance of up to 1,500g-force, and it is waterproof up to 400mbar.
Availability and pricing
The LRP S3 will be available in April 2023 at authorised retailers.
