Viridian Lyxa Rifle Scope 4-16X44 1" Sfp Bdc Moa Non-Illum Black
The Viridian Lyxa 4-16x44 rifle scope is a second focal plane hunting and target scope built for shooters who demand reliability without compromise. With its 1-inch tube and MOA-based BDC reticle, the Lyxa delivers the optical performance and turret control needed for everything from 100-yard deer stands to 300-yard range sessions. Viridian engineered this scope for serious field use: fully multi-coated HD glass that maximizes light transmission and edge-to-edge clarity, nitrogen purging to lock out moisture and fog, and zero-reset turrets that let you dial elevation and windage adjustments with confidence and repeatability.
The 4-16x magnification range gives you flexibility across common hunting distances and competitive shooting applications. At 4x, you've got a wide field of view for quick target acquisition; crank to 16x and you're dialed in for precision work. The MOA BDC reticle is calibrated to make holdovers and adjustments straightforward, and the second focal plane design means the reticle stays a consistent size as you change magnification—a trusted approach for hunters and range shooters alike.
Built to handle the wear and tear of serious use, the Lyxa combines durable mechanics with optical quality that won't quit on you. Whether you're running it on a dedicated hunting rifle, a 3-gun gun, or a precision rifle at the range, this scope is designed to stay zeroed and keep delivering clear glass when it counts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifle platforms is the Viridian Lyxa 4-16x44 compatible with?
The 1-inch tube is the industry standard and will fit any rifle equipped with standard 1-inch Weaver or Picatinny scope rings. That covers virtually all centerfire hunting rifles, AR-platform rifles, and most precision rifles.
Is the reticle illuminated?
No. The Lyxa uses a non-illuminated MOA BDC reticle. For many hunters and competitive shooters, this is an advantage—there are no batteries to fail, and the black reticle contrasts well against most target and game backgrounds in typical shooting light.
What does "second focal plane" mean for my shooting?
In a second focal plane scope, the reticle stays the same size no matter what magnification you're zoomed to. This means the reticle marks will only be true for holdovers at a specific magnification (usually maximum power). Many hunters and recreational shooters prefer this design because the larger reticle appearance at lower magnifications aids target acquisition.
How does the nitrogen purging help?
Nitrogen purging fills the scope's interior with nitrogen gas instead of air, which prevents moisture from accumulating inside the tube. This internal fogging and corrosion protection is especially valuable if you hunt in humid conditions or move between temperature extremes.
