Trijicon Ascent 1-4x24 30mm Rifle Scope - Matte Black, BDC Target Holds

The Trijicon Ascent 1-4x24 30mm rifle scope is a lightweight, hard-use optic built for shooters who demand speed and precision without compromise. At just 15.9 ounces, this 1-4x magnification scope excels in close-to-intermediate range work where quick target acquisition matters as much as downrange accuracy. The true 1x setting delivers a wide field of view with zero distortion, making it ideal for hunters working brush, tactical riflemen moving between positions, or anyone who values fast shooting and absolute clarity.

Built on a robust 30mm aluminum tube, the Ascent uses fully multi-coated broadband glass to cut glare and deliver edge-to-edge clarity across its full zoom range. The reticle pattern is a BDC Target Holds design, which means it carries holdover marks for bullet drop compensation out to practical distances—a real asset when you need to make a clean hold instead of dialing. With 100 MOA of total adjustment travel and 1/4 MOA clicks, you've got the range to dial for your rifle's trajectory, and the resolution to dial it precisely. The second focal plane design keeps the reticle at a natural size across the magnification range, making target indexing intuitive whether you're running 1x or 4x.

Field of view spans from 95 feet at 1x down to 24.2 feet at 4x (both at 100 yards), and the 2.6 to 3.9 inch eye relief works well with most stock configurations. The matte black finish resists reflection and fits seamlessly into a professional or hunting setup. Trijicon backs this scope with a warranty card, and you get a lens cap, scopecoat, and quick reference guide in the box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the box with this scope?

You get the scope itself, a lens cap, a scopecoat (protective scope cover), a quick reference guide, a warranty card, and a vinyl logo sticker.

Is this scope good for hunting, target shooting, or both?

The 1-4x magnification, fast 1x zoom mode, and BDC reticle design make it versatile across hunting and tactical applications. The wide field of view at 1x excels in close-range hunting scenarios, while the 4x magnification and holdover marks support longer-range precision work and range sessions.

Will this scope work with a 30mm scope ring system?

Yes—the scope has a 30mm tube diameter, which is compatible with standard 30mm ring systems. The 10.4-inch length and eye relief range (2.6–3.9 inches) are typical of modern tactical and hunting rings.

What does the BDC Target Holds reticle do?

The BDC (Bullet Drop Compensating) reticle carries holdover marks etched in the reticle pattern, allowing you to hold directly on targets at extended ranges without dialing elevation—so long as your rifle is zeroed to the reticle's design. It's a practical feature for quick engagements.
