About this product

Product Information

The Nikon SlugHunter 3-9x40 Scope with BDC 200 reticle has a field of view of 8.4-25.2 feet at 100 yards. It also provides a 3x to 9x magnification, which makes your shot easier to target, particularly from long range. The Nikon SlugHunter has a 5-inch eye relief and a 1-inch tube diameter. This is a substantial amount of eye relief that protects you even when using this riflescope with heavy-recoil guns. Your aiming benefits from the 44mm outside eyepiece diameter, which makes this scope a more comfortable fit. With its 92.5 percent light transmission and 13.3/4.4mm Exit Pupil, the Nikon SlugHunter 3-9x40 provides a brighter, clearer view through its scope. This scope is also equipped with multicoated optics for increased protection from the elements. This multicoating ensures that these rifle scopes are both waterproof and fog-proof so you are able to use the scopes in the early morning or while it's raining. This item is also fully shockproof for protection from sustained recoil when you're out hunting. The optic glass itself is resistant to scratches as well. This helps keep your accessories in good shape while you use them.This Slug Scope is easy to use, and it cuts down on any potential obstruction in lining up your target. The weight of this Nikon scope comes in at a relatively lightweight 15 ounces. This ensures a high level of portability, whether carrying it in a bag or when it's attached to your rifle. When you're aiming down the sights, you are able to make use of the 60 MOA of internal adjustments. These adjustments are made at graduations of 1/4 inch for a very precise aim. Parallax settings are available at the length of 75 yards. This Nikon riflescope comes with a sleek black matte finish that keeps reflections from notifying your prey. The reticle found on this device is a standard BDC version. The BDC 200 uses several easy-to-see ballistic circles for instant aiming points. This open circle design was fashioned to make shooting smaller targets easier. It also assists with targets at a lengthier distance. There is a total of four ballistic circles that are made to optimize performance at different yardages. For making adjustments to the BDC 200, spring-loaded instant zero-reset turrets are available. By lifting the adjustment knob and turning it to zero, your sights are re-calibrated in an instant. With the high percentage of light transmission on this product, you are able to hunt in even low-light conditions. Use the quick focus eyepiece for a truer and sharper aim. The overall length of this Nikon scope model is about 11.5 inches. No matter which rifle you're using, this item should fit on top of it with no issues. When considering this item for your gun, remember that these scopes are at their most accurate from 50 to 100 yards away. These scopes are used with rifles, but they are also used for shotgun optimization as well.

    5 Inches Of Eye relief!

    Too bad Nikon quit making these. I have several of them on various 45-70 rifles. Lots of eye relief and very clear glass. I like the 3x9 best with the four circle reticle. If you can find one, get it! And download the Nikon spot-on app.

  • The perfect shot gun scope.

    We haven’t hunted with guns for a few years until last season. We equipped one of our newer guns with this Nikon 3 x 9 slug hunter. It was the best scope of the lot, with excellent clarity and Eye relief. We were very happy with it, so we bought another!

    This scope is awesome. Crystal clear, easy adjustments and of course the BDC 200 Reticle. It is easily the best scope on the market for the Savage 220 with 3" slugs !!!
