Swampfox Optics Kentucky Long Precision 3-18X50Mm Ffp Ill. Recce Mil Black

The Swampfox Optics Kentucky Long Precision 3-18x50mm FFP rifle scope is a first focal plane hunting and precision rifle optic built for shooters who refuse to compromise on glass quality, reticle design, or low-light capability. This 6x magnification range — from 3x to 18x — gives you versatility from close-range work to extended engagements, while the illuminated Recce mil reticle remains true across the entire zoom range, keeping your hold-over and windage calls consistent whether you're at 3x or maxed out at 18x.

The Kentucky Long is purpose-built for hunters and competition shooters who work in variable light. The glass-etched illumination powers up for dim conditions without washing out your target, and the parallax adjustment dialed from 10 yards to infinity means your sight picture stays crystal-clear at any distance. Locking, zero-resettable turrets let you dial repeatable adjustments with confidence — 110 MOA or 32 MIL of total internal travel gives you room for serious distance or significant elevation changes. The fast-focus eyepiece keeps your reticle sharp without fiddling, and the included magnification throw lever makes power changes smooth and intuitive.

This scope ships ready to work: you get both low- and high-profile throw fins to match your setup, flip-up lens caps to guard glass, a quality scope cloth, and a 3-inch sun shade to cut glare and protect your objective. Whether you're ranging targets at the bench, hunting open country, or testing your precision rifle skills at distance, the Kentucky Long delivers the optical clarity, reticle intelligence, and mechanical reliability that earn trust in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does first focal plane mean, and why does it matter for the Kentucky Long?

In a first focal plane scope, the reticle sits in front of the magnification lens, so the reticle subtensions stay proportional to your target across every magnification level. That means the holdover marks, wind dots, and measurements on the Recce mil reticle remain accurate whether you're shooting at 3x or 18x — critical for precision shooting or hunting at variable distances without having to recalculate your aim.

Is the illumination powered by a battery, or does it work without one?

The Kentucky Long uses glass-etched illumination, which does not rely on batteries. The reticle is physically etched into the glass and uses ambient light for visibility, ensuring it works in low-light conditions without requiring battery replacements or worrying about power failure.

What magnification throw fins are included, and why do I get both?

You receive both low- and high-profile throw fins. The low-profile fin is sleeker and takes up less space on your rifle, while the high-profile version gives you more leverage and makes fast magnification changes easier to execute with one hand. Which you use depends on your rifle setup and shooting style.

Can I adjust parallax on the Kentucky Long, and over what distance range?

Yes, the Kentucky Long has an adjustable parallax focus that ranges from 10 yards to infinity, allowing you to dial out parallax error across hunting and precision rifle distances. This ensures your sight picture remains sharp and parallax-free whether you're shooting close or extending to distance.
