Sig Sauer Electro-Optics Sobm43002 Buckmasters Black 3-12X 44Mm 1" Tube Illuminated Hellfire Bdc Reticle

The Sig Sauer Buckmasters 3-12x44 riflescope is a mid-range hunting optic built for the field hunter who doesn't want to compromise on glass quality or reticle functionality. Developed in partnership with Buckmasters, this 1-inch tube scope brings Sig Sauer's optical performance to a practical price point, making it a solid choice for whitetail hunters, varmint shooters, and anyone working moderate hunting distances. The variable 3x to 12x magnification and 44mm objective lens deliver excellent light transmission across low-light hunting hours while keeping the overall package lightweight at 14.9 ounces.

The Hellfire illuminated reticle is where this scope earns its place in your rifle. The custom Buckmasters BDC (Bullet Drop Compensation) pattern includes hold-over dots calibrated to 500 yards, letting you aim on game without mental math at typical hunting ranges. Six illumination settings let you dial the brightness for dense timber or twilight conditions, and the reticle sits in the second focal plane—meaning it doesn't magnify with your zoom, keeping holdovers consistent at any magnification you choose. The integrated throw lever speeds up magnification changes during the hunt, and the scope handles the hard use that field hunting demands: it's fog-proof, waterproof, and shockproof construction.

Sig includes lay-flat back lens covers to protect glass in the truck bed or day pack, and the scope runs on a single CR2032 battery for the illumination system. No ring or mount is included, so plan for that separately based on your rifle's configuration. This is a scope built to work, not to collect compliments in the safe.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifles or platforms does this Buckmasters scope work with?

The 1-inch tube diameter fits any rifle configured for standard 1-inch scope rings—the vast majority of modern and classic hunting rifles. You'll need to purchase rings or a mount separately matched to your rifle's top receiver.

Is this scope compatible with the Buckmasters 1500 rangefinder?

Yes. The Buckmasters BDC reticle is specifically designed to work with the Buckmasters 1500 rangefinder, allowing you to integrate range data with the holdover dots for precise aiming out to 500 yards.

What's included with the scope?

The scope comes with lay-flat back lens covers and a CR2032 battery for the illuminated reticle. Rings, mounts, or bore-sight tools are not included.

How does the illuminated reticle perform in low light?

Six brightness settings let you dial in visibility for your hunting conditions—from dense shade to twilight. The illumination is powered by a CR2032 battery and is designed to help you see your reticle without washing out the sight picture in dim light.
