Instruction manual
Congratulations on your choice of a Nikon BUCKMASTERS Riflescope. Your new scope is the finest
example of Nikon’s rugged and durable construction and precision bright optics; important qualities for
a serious shooter’s riflescope.
Whether you use your scope for hunting or for target shooting, the procedure for mounting is identical.
You should acquire a set of high quality steel mounting rings which have a standard diameter of 25.4
mm (1inch). Follow the ring manufacturer’s instructions for mounting procedures. After mounting the
scope on your rifle, follow the procedures for reticle alignment.
When setting the reticle for hunting, you should determine your standard range and then adjust the
reticle based upon that target distance. For targets which vary from that standard distance you may
simply adjust the position of the reticle in relation to your target, or you may wish to use the procedure
for trajectory compensation. It’s up to your personal preference.
We hope that you will enjoy your new Nikon BUCKMASTERS Riflescope for many years to come. Enjoy
using it, and above all, always follow safe shooting procedures
!
Caution
(1) Do not look at the sun through the riflescope. It will permanently damage your eye. This precaution
applies to all optical devices such as cameras and binoculars.
(2) The riflescope is effectively sealed against moisture and dust. You may use your scope safely either
in the rain or in dusty climates. To preserve the appearance of the scope, we suggest that it be dried
and cleaned prior to storage. Use a soft cloth for cleaning metal surfaces and use photographic lens
tissue to clean the scope’s lenses.
