Designated ‘F1’ to mark its lenses’ optical configuration, the Cobra will prove popular with shooters who favour the less complicated sight picture offered by FFP tellies, where the relationship between target and crosshair size remains constant throughout the scope’s entire magnification range. This is particularly advantageous when allowing hold-over and hold-under on targets – scenarios aided further by MTC’s multi-stadia SCB2 crosshair that provides numerous aiming points to counter trajectory and windage deviation.
The Cobra F1’s First Focal Plane crosshair has MIL click-stop adjustments (1 click = 1cm @100m) via lockable, finger-adjustable elevation and windage turrets, and can also be illuminated to one of 6 intensity settings to suit any lighting condition in the field or on the range. The new F1 also boasts sidewheel parallax adjustment to eliminate aiming errors and assist in range estimation from 10m to infinity.
To maximise light transmission and maintain a bright sight picture, the specially-coated lenses of the 50mm diameter objective have been matched to an oversize, 30mm tube – and besides a fast-focus eye-piece, the Cobra F1 also ships with the standard magnetic, flip-up lens covers with inbuilt magnifying pane to assist with turret scale reading

MTC SCB2 Reticle
The Small Calibre Ballistic (SCB) reticle offers an incredible amount of aim points with a floating cross for clear and accurate target acquisition. This is ideal for use on small targets. The 1 mil dot square around the cross gives a rapid acquisition for small fast moving targets such as rats. When shooting at small targets or when bullet drop becomes critical the versatility of this reticule becomes clear.
NB: Only suitable for low or non-recoiling rifles.
Viper Connect Reticle Options
MTC AMD Reticle the Advanced Mil Dot (AMD) reticle builds on the success of the SCB reticle. Some users required an alternative product that continued to feature a good number of aiming points but did away with the more complicated reticle markings. The result is the MTC Optics AMD reticle. The reticle combines simplified aimpoints with see through circular milt dot markers, offering fast target acquisition with instant holdover information. Just like the SCB, the 1 mil dot square around the cross gives a rapid acquisition for small fast moving targets. When shooting at small targets or when bullet drop becomes critical the versatility of this reticule becomes clear.
This revolutionary new scope contains the best and most sophisticated turret design available anywhere, the top turret contains a micro gearbox rotating at a 3-1 ratio – this means that three rotations of the top turret translates to a single rotation or the indicator drum making it much easier to know where you are in terms of rotations. Its turret ‘window’ shows a customisable ribbon that shows exactly the information you want from Mills to MOA – even yards or metres can be displayed: It’s your choice.
