Rudolph V1 5-25x50mm

• 5-25x magnification range: Covers precise load development, small-target work and longer-range shooting without changing optics, giving the scope enough flexibility for both varmint and target use.
• 50 mm objective with fully multi-coated lenses: Helps maintain a bright, usable sight picture as magnification rises, which is especially valuable when aiming at small targets in poor light or at extended distance.
• SFP illuminated reticle: Keeps the reticle visually consistent through the zoom range, making it easy to pick up at low power while the red illumination helps the aiming point stand out against dark backgrounds.
• Lockable tactical turrets: Allow deliberate elevation and windage corrections while reducing the chance of accidental movement during transport or field carry.
• Side-focus parallax adjustment: Lets the shooter fine-tune image focus from 10 yds to infinity, improving target definition and reducing aiming error across a wide range of distances.

About the Rudolph Optics V1 Series

The Rudolph Optics V1 series is the brand’s Varmint Series, built around the needs of shooters who want more magnification, precise aiming and dependable mechanical adjustment for small targets and longer distances. In Rudolph Optics’ lineup, the V1 sits as a purpose-driven riflescope family for varmint hunting, range use and practical precision shooting, with configurations that span 2.5-15x50 and 5-25x50.

The series is defined by a mix of hunting and target-oriented features rather than a single-use design. Depending on the model, V1 scopes are offered with illuminated T3 and D2 reticles as well as FFP T9 and RR1 reticles, allowing the line to cover everything from medium- and long-distance hunting to gong and competition shooting. That broad reticle choice gives the V1 family a clear identity: practical magnification ranges, reticle options matched to different shooting styles and a layout meant to balance field usability with more deliberate shot placement. Within Rudolph Optics’ current riflescope range, the V1 remains the series aimed at shooters who need reach, finer aiming control and a scope format that still works outside a benchrest setting.

About the Rudolph V1 5-25x50mm

The Rudolph V1 5-25x50mm is built for shooters who need enough magnification for small targets and careful shot placement, but still want a scope that remains practical on hunting and target rifles. Its 5-25x zoom range gives it a wide working envelope: lower settings help with faster target acquisition and a broader view of the surroundings, while the top end supports precise aiming at extended distances. Paired with a 50.00 mm objective lens, the scope is configured to keep the image usable as magnification increases, which matters when target detail becomes harder to resolve in fading light.

This model uses a second focal plane illuminated reticle, so the reticle keeps the same apparent size throughout the zoom range. In practice, that makes the aiming point easy to see at high magnification without becoming too fine, while the red illumination helps the reticle stand out against dark game, shaded targets or cluttered backgrounds. The side-focus parallax adjustment, working from 10 yds to infinity, adds another layer of precision by letting the shooter sharpen the target image and minimize parallax error over a very broad distance range.

The mechanical layout is equally focused on controlled adjustment. Lockable tactical turrets suit shooters who dial corrections but do not want settings moved unintentionally in transit or in the field. The 1/4 MOA click value supports fine correction, while the 30 mm tube provides a familiar mounting standard for many rifles. With a nitrogen-filled, waterproof, fogproof and shockproof construction, this riflescope is set up for regular outdoor use where weather changes, recoil and transport are part of normal shooting conditions.
