Konus 7188 Glory Matte Black 2-16x50mm Rifle Scope with 30mm Tube & Illuminated German 4 Reticle

The Konus 7188 Glory is a 2-16x50mm rifle scope built for hunters who need genuine versatility across changing distances and hunting conditions. With an 8x zoom range and 30mm tube, it bridges the gap between close-range brush hunting and extended-distance work—no scope swap required. The matte black finish is subdued and practical, while the illuminated German 4 reticle gives you a sharp aiming point in dim timber or across open country.

Konus engineered this scope around real-world reliability. The push/pull locking turrets reset to zero for consistent elevation and windage adjustments, while the newly designed erector tube system stands up to heavy recoil without shifting zero. Parallax adjustment via the side wheel lets you dial out focus errors at distance, and the fully multi-coated optics deliver the light transmission and clarity you need when conditions get tight. The 1/4 MOA click value gives you fine precision at 100 yards, with 90 MOA of total adjustment range.

Field of view runs from 56.9 feet at 2x down to 7 feet at 16x—wide enough at low power to pick up movement and track moving game, but compressed enough at high magnification to frame distant targets cleanly. Eye relief stays consistent across the magnification range (around 3.75 inches), so you're not hunting for your sight picture as you zoom. The removable zoom lever and included sunshade reduce snags in brush and glare in bright conditions. At just over 25 ounces and 13.5 inches long, it won't tip your rifle balance.

This is a scope for hunters who want one optic that works from 50-yard whitetail stands to 300-yard prairie or mountain hunts. It asks you to trust an 8x zoom range instead of reaching for multiple scopes, and it's built to handle that responsibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the field of view on this scope at different magnifications?

At 2x magnification, you get 56.9 feet of field of view at 100 yards—plenty wide for close-range hunting and tracking moving game. At maximum magnification (16x), it narrows to 7 feet, giving you a focused view for precision shooting at distance.

What's included with the scope?

The Konus 7188 comes with a removable zoom lever for convenient magnification adjustment and a sunshade to reduce glare and protect the objective lens.

Is the reticle illuminated, and can I use it without power?

Yes, the reticle is illuminated with a German 4 pattern. While illumination enhances visibility in low light, the reticle itself remains visible without power for reliable aiming in any condition.

What's the eye relief like, and will it work on high-recoil rifles?

Eye relief stays consistent around 3.75 inches across the entire 2-16x range, giving you a comfortable sight picture at any magnification. The erector tube system is designed to withstand heavy recoil and maintain zero under stress, making it suitable for powerful calibers.
