Steiner T6Xi 2.5-15x50mm Illuminated SCR Mil Reticle FFP Rifle Scope with Throw Lever - 34mm Tube, Black

The Steiner T6Xi 2.5-15x50mm illuminated SCR mil reticle FFP rifle scope is a versatile optic built to handle everything from close-range carbine work to extended shooting distance. With a 6x zoom range, robust 34mm tube construction, and first focal plane reticle system, this scope adapts to unpredictable field conditions without demanding you compromise on precision or durability. Whether you're setting up overwatch, engaging targets across variable distance, or running a bolt gun or modern rifle, the T6Xi delivers the optical performance and mechanical reliability that separates good gear from great gear.

What sets this Steiner apart is the practical engineering. The never-lost locking windage and elevation turrets stay put—no accidentally bumping zero—while the innovative second rotation indicator tells you instantly when you've cycled the turret. That matters when you're working through adjustment problems downrange. The illuminated reticle offers four night settings and seven day levels, so you can pick the brightness that works without washing out your sight picture in variable light. Side focus parallax adjustment (25 yards to infinity) keeps your image crisp without hunting for sharpness.

Built in the U.S.A., the T6Xi is sealed and nitrogen-filled to handle serious conditions: submersible to 33 feet, waterproof, fogproof, and rated across operating temperatures from -13°F to 145°F. The throw lever gets you through the zoom range quickly when distance demands change mid-session. At 32 ounces and 12.8 inches long, it won't overburden a hunting rifle or tactical carbine, and the 3.5-3.3 inch eye relief works well with most mounting positions and shooting techniques.

The SCR mil reticle in the first focal plane means your reticle scale holds true at any magnification—critical for long-range holdovers and wind holds. With 34 mil elevation range and 30 mil wind range, you've got room to work. Click value is 0.1 mrad (1 cm at 100 meters), and the resettable zero knob lets you dial back to your starting point if you're moving between zero and adjusted fire.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifle types is the Steiner T6Xi compatible with?

The T6Xi works on both carbines and bolt-action rifles. With a standard 34mm tube, it requires rings and mounts designed for a 34mm optic tube. Check your rifle's mounting system before purchase to confirm compatibility.

Is this scope suitable for long-range hunting and precision shooting?

Yes. The first focal plane reticle and mil-based adjustment system are built for distance shooting. The 34 mil elevation range and 30 mil wind range support extended engagements, and the resettable zero knob works well for transitioning between zero and dialed fire. The 2.5x low end also keeps your field of view wide for target acquisition, while 15x magnification handles far shooting.

What does the second rotation indicator do?

It tells you when you've completed a full rotation of the adjustment turret. This prevents confusion during dial-up shots and helps you track where you are in the turret's range, so you know instantly if you've gone a full turn and are coming around again.

Can the Steiner T6Xi handle wet and cold weather?

Absolutely. The scope is nitrogen-filled, waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof. It's submersible to 33 feet and rated to operate from –13°F to 145°F, so it won't fail in rain, snow, or temperature swings typical of hunting season.
