The Simmons 8-Point 6-18x50mm rifle scope delivers dependable magnification and optical clarity at a price point that won't drain your ammunition budget. Built for hunters and shooters who need a straightforward, rugged optic that performs when it counts, this matte black scope pairs a versatile 6-18x magnification range with a 50mm objective lens—a solid middle ground for medium-range hunting, target practice, and field shooting. The fully coated optics system cuts glare and boosts contrast, helping you pick out game in changing light or dial in steel at the range.
The Truplex reticle gives you a clean, functional aiming point without unnecessary complexity. Windage and elevation adjustments work in 1/4-MOA increments with audible, tactile clicks—no guessing whether your turret actually moved. The TrueZero system keeps those adjustments locked down through recoil and rough handling, so your zero stays honest in the field. Add in the quick-focus eyepiece for rapid target acquisition, and you've got a scope that works as hard as you do without pretension or bloat.
Sealed construction handles rain, fog, and temperature swings without internal moisture or optical degradation. This is a working scope—the kind you mount, zero once, and trust to perform. Whether you're hunting from a stand, glassing from a ridge, or ringing steel at your local range, the 8-Point handles the job without the premium price tag of higher-end glass.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 6-18x50mm specification and what hunting is it good for?
The 6x magnification at the low end works well for closer shots in thick cover or when you need a wider field of view; 18x gives you enough zoom to reach out to medium distances and dial in smaller targets. The 50mm objective collects good light without making the scope heavy or difficult to mount. It's a versatile setup for deer, elk, varmint shooting, and general-purpose range work—not specialized for extreme long-range, but capable and dependable for typical hunting scenarios.
How do the windage and elevation adjustments work?
Windage and elevation turrets adjust in 1/4-minute-of-angle (MOA) increments. Each click is audible and tactile, so you know the adjustment registered. The TrueZero system locks those adjustments in place, preventing accidental drift during recoil or field handling.
What is the Truplex reticle?
The Truplex is a simple, clean crosshair reticle designed for fast target acquisition without the visual noise of complex mil-dot or illuminated patterns. It's straightforward to use and doesn't clutter your sight picture.
Is this scope waterproof and suitable for all-weather hunting?
Yes. The 8-Point is sealed to be waterproof, fogproof, and recoilproof, so it handles rain, temperature changes, and high-recoil rifles without internal fogging or moisture intrusion.
