Ruggedized electronics drive an LED reticle built for extreme conditions. Powered by a single AA lithium battery (included), the VCOG provides up to 633 hours of runtime at setting 6 and offers 11 brightness settings—2 night-vision, 8 daylight, and 1 super-bright.

Integrated Dial Fin

An integrated dial fin allows smooth magnification changes, while near-constant eye relief eliminates the need for head or stock adjustments. The optic is fully waterproof to 20 meters (66 ft.), ensuring reliability in any environment.

Backed by Trijicon’s science-based testing methods applied to every product, VCOG riflescope models are Alaska-to-Africa tested to ensure performance from -20°F to 140°F, giving shooters and hunters supreme confidence in any climate. Each model is Solid Zero Tested and subjected to 5,000 rounds of heavy cartridge testing to ensure no reticle shift, while Drop Testing guarantees that every bump and bruise won’t result in a warranty claim. VCOG models are Shock & Vibration Tested to withstand recoil and field abuse without failure. Finally, all models are Immersion Tested and dry-nitrogen-filled to eliminate internal fogging, even in the harshest environments.
