Trijicon AccuPoint 3-9x40 Rifle Scope - Matte Black, Amber Triangle Post Reticle

The Trijicon AccuPoint 3-9x40 rifle scope brings a distinctive advantage to hunters and shooters who demand a reticle that works as hard as they do, in any light. Built around Trijicon's proven fiber-optic and tritium illumination system, this 1-inch tube scope delivers a bright amber triangle post that requires no batteries—just ambient light by day and self-illumination at night. The triangle-tip design is engineered for fast target acquisition, whether you're glassing at dawn, taking a midday shot, or hunting into dusk.

At 3-9x magnification with a 40mm objective, this scope strikes a practical balance for most hunting scenarios. The 12.4-inch length and 13.4-ounce weight keep it nimble on rifle systems where balance matters, while the matte black anodized finish resists glint and blends with modern riflescopes. The optical tube is waterproof to 10 feet, so rain or creek crossings won't compromise your zero or reticle function. Trijicon engineered the AccuPoint with enough eye relief (3.6 to 3.2 inches) to keep your sight picture forgiving, and 50 MOA of total adjustment range handles most hunting distances and trajectory curves.

The illuminated post concept has devoted followers among serious hunters because it eliminates the slow hunting that battery-dependent reticles demand. Fiber optics gather daylight to keep the triangle tip visible without losing the simplicity of passive illumination; tritium takes over when the sun sets. Your setup is ready whenever you are—no menu buttons, no dying batteries in October, no guesswork in low light.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Trijicon AccuPoint triangle post reticle different from standard crosshairs?

The triangle-tip design centers on a bright amber post with a distinctive triangular point, engineered for rapid target pickup. Unlike open crosshair designs, the triangle consolidates your aiming focus into a single reference without splitting the target or cluttering the field of view. The combination of fiber-optic and tritium illumination means the reticle stays visible from dawn hunts through low-light situations—all without batteries or menus.

Does the AccuPoint 3-9x40 require batteries to work?

No. The reticle is powered by fiber optics (which gather ambient daylight) and tritium (a radioactive isotope that self-illuminates in darkness). There are no batteries to install, replace, or forget. This battery-free design is one of the AccuPoint's main selling points for hunters who want a reticle that's always ready.

What rifles and calibers is this scope suitable for?

The 3-9x magnification, eye relief, and 50 MOA adjustment range make this scope a natural fit for most hunting rifles from .223 Remington through magnum calibers. Specific compatibility depends on your rifle's receiver design, mounting system, and the loads you're shooting. We recommend confirming your rifle's rail configuration and consulting your rifle and scope manuals before mounting.

What's included with the AccuPoint scope?

The package includes the scope, a set of lens caps, a Lenspen cleaning tool, a Trijicon logo sticker, the AccuPoint manual, and a warranty card.
