UTG OP3 4-16x44

• 4-16x magnification range: Covers precise rimfire and target work from closer distances out to longer shots, giving the scope enough top-end magnification for small targets without becoming overly specialized.
• 44 mm objective with side parallax adjustment: Helps maintain a clear sight picture from 9.14 m to inf, which is especially useful when shooting at varied distances where parallax error can affect point of impact.
• Locking, zero-reset turrets with 1/4 MOA clicks: Provide repeatable adjustments for dialing elevation and windage, while the locking function helps prevent accidental movement during transport or field use.
• Illuminated etched glass UMOA reticle: Keeps the aiming point visible against dark backgrounds and changing light, while the etched design remains usable even when illumination is switched off.
• IPX-7 waterproof, nitrogen-filled 30 mm construction: Supports dependable use in rain, temperature changes, and rough handling, with fogproof and shockproof protection that suits regular hunting optics or range use.

About the UTG Accushot Series

UTG Accushot sits in the brand's established riflescope range as a practical line of 30 mm second-focal-plane optics built around Leapers' True Strength construction platform. The series includes five cataloged models, from a compact scout configuration to higher-magnification versions intended for more deliberate shooting, so it covers everything from general-purpose carbines to rimfire and target rifles. Across the lineup, Leapers pairs the mechanical platform with coil erector return springs and a design tested on both air rifles and firearms, reflecting a focus on durability and repeatable adjustment rather than minimal weight alone.

A shared characteristic of the series is its illuminated reticle system, with red, green, and 36-color modes across the listed models. That gives the Accushot family a broad operating range in changing light and against different target backgrounds. With magnification options extending up to 4-16x, the series is aimed at shooters who want more adjustment range and more aiming precision than a basic hunting scope, while still keeping the controls and overall layout straightforward.

About the UTG OP3 4-16x44

The UTG OP3 4-16x44 is the higher-magnification Accushot configuration for shooters who need a compact riflescope with enough reach for small targets, load testing, and precise hold placement. Its 4-16x magnification range makes it well suited to rimfire target shooting and general range use, where lower power helps with target acquisition and higher power gives a more exact view of aiming points and shot placement. The 44 mm objective lens balances useful light intake with a manageable overall size, keeping the scope trim at 271.00 mm while still offering a practical exit pupil range for varied lighting conditions.

This model uses an etched glass UMOA reticle in the second focal plane, so the reticle maintains the same apparent size throughout the zoom range. In practice, that gives a familiar sight picture at every magnification and can make fine aiming less visually busy at the top end. Illumination in red and green, together with the broader IE 36-color system used in the OP3 family, helps the reticle stand out against dark targets, shaded backdrops, or low-contrast conditions.

The turret system is configured for shooters who dial deliberately. 1/4 MOA clicks, locking turrets, and zero stop support repeatable corrections while reducing the chance of accidental movement between strings or during transport. Side parallax adjustment from 9.14 m to inf is a major advantage on a scope in this magnification class, because it lets the image and reticle be tuned for sharper focus and reduced aiming error across short and long distances. A 30 mm tube, nitrogen filling, and IPX-7 waterproof construction complete a design intended for regular use in changing weather and demanding range conditions.

About UTG

UTG is the optics and shooting accessories brand of Leapers, Inc., a company founded in Michigan in 1992 and headquartered in Livonia, Michigan, United States. The company began with a compact 4×28 scope as its first product and has since expanded into a broad catalog that includes riflescopes, scope rings, mounts, and bipods for hunting and shooting sports. In 2009, Leapers introduced the UTG PRO line of U.S.-made products, and in 2018 it established a dedicated optics research and manufacturing center in Taiwan.

That background is relevant to the Accushot line because Leapers has long focused on practical optic design, mechanical durability, and mounting solutions within the same product ecosystem. The company also introduced the INTEGRIX premium optics brand in 2022, showing continued development in sporting optics while maintaining UTG as a core range for accessible, field-oriented products.
