Lynx Rifle Scopes
made a name among hunters and target shooters as reliable high tech rifle scopes, binoculars and
equipment at very affordable price. With it's clear optics, repeatable adjustments and sturdiness - even
with high recoiling calibers - it made a trustworthy name for itself among outdoors men and -women.
Perfectly adapted to our harsh environment, it kept its zero shot after shot, year
after year, and with it's easily accessible adjustment knobs, it is a breeze to dial in.
Lynx rifle scopes are very well known for it's generous eye relieve, which not only aids in
easy target acquisition, but also protects the shooter from Scope bite when shooting
hard kicking calibers.
The multi-layered lens coatings gives a crisp and clear sight picture, even at less favorable
lighting conditions. With the illuminated reticle of some models, hunting and shooting
even in complete darkness poses no problem at all.
Backed by being a local company, any after sales service is a joy.

LX3 Professional series. 30mm main tube
LX3 1-6x24 G4i Hunter
Extra low dispersion glass and the latest anti-reflective lens coating technology gives brilliant image clarity and brightness.
1 to 6 magnification range is ideal for fast close‐up dangerous game hunting as well as bush veld hunting at moderate‐range up to 300 m. The long eye-relief keeps the scope a safe distance from your brow when in the shooting position and the 95 mm long mountable area of the straight‐through objective‐side tube makes the scope easy to mount at the safe and correct distance from your eye over even the longest actions.
Recoil tested on .450 Rigby and .505 Gibbs amongst others, LX3 1-6x24 is suitable for everyday use on any bush veld calibre. The reticle, usually the most fragile component in any rifle scope and the most likely component to fail under severe or bi‐directional recoil, is 6mm thick glass which means it is for all practical purposes indestructible. The 30mm thick-walled scope tube is contoured specifically to fit over long actions and, when the scope is correctly mounted and proper shooting posture is observed, the 100mm-plus eye relief will make sure that a safe distance is maintained between your brow and the scope eyepiece at all times.
German No.4 Reticle with Illuminated Dot
Thick outer bars lead the eye to the centre finer cross, which has a tiny illuminated aiming point. The centre opening can be used to bracket a fast moving target for snap-shooting while the bold outer posts are easily visible against mottled shadow vegetation, even in poor light.

LX3 2.5-15x50 SAH
Extra low dispersion glass and the latest anti-reflective lens coating technology gives brilliant image clarity and brightness. The scope is easy on the eye during prolonged periods of use due to its generous and forgiving eye relief and the long 155 mm main tube makes for easy mounting onto long-action hunting calibers.
As suggested by the model number, Lynx LX3 2.5‑15x50 SA Hunter is fitted with the tried and tested SA Hunter reticle that is easy to use and provides aiming points that compensate for distance as well as cross-winds. Calibrated in metres for distance and km/h for wind, SA Hunter reticle works with most popular hunting and varmint calibres. The bold reticle lines are easily visible in poor light but still thin enough for accurate shot placement on small targets. A small red centre cross lights up dead-centre to make the aim point more easily visible at night with minimal effect on your night vision.
Side Focus & Reticle Illuminator
Parallax is focusable from 35 metres to beyond infinity. The parallax adjustment wheel is mounted on the side of the scope alongside the illuminator switch, which can be turned on and off to one of 11 brightness settings with a single click.

LX3 Competition Series
LX3 1-6x24 3GS Tactical
Extra low dispersion glass and the latest anti-reflective lens coating technology gives brilliant image clarity and brightness.
With the scope set to 1x and the centre circle & dot illuminated LX3 1-6x24 is an effective zero magnification holographic weapon sight, perfect for most types of close-up speed shooting; the maximum magnification setting of 6x is ideal for bushveld hunting as well as action sport shooting.
3GS Tactical Reticle for Big Bore Hunting and Sport Shooting
Clean and unobtrusive by design, Lynx 3GS reticle makes it a cinch to hit both nearby and faraway targets quickly and accurately without having to adjust the scope. IPSC, IDPA and 3GN sport shooters using the 5.56x45mm cartridge will easily hit the target from 10 to 300 metres away, while big bore rifle hunters and regular sport shooters can use the 3GS reticle to compensate for the trajectory of heavier bullets over distances up to 200 metres.
Although primarily intending it for use in IPSC, IDPA and 3GN-style sport shooting, tests in the field have proven that the same design‐elements that make the 3GS reticle good for IPSC make it perfect for bushveld and big bore rifle hunters as well. With magnification set to 1 the brightly illuminated centre circle and dot performs as an effective zero magnification red dot or holographic weapon sight; at 6x the reticle is good for longer‐range precision shooting. The bottom vertical post has a twelve‐step mil ranging scale and the centre circle‐and‐dot simultaneously provides for both fast and high accuracy shot placement depending on the immediate situation. At 6x, when the centre aiming dot is zeroed at 200 metres, the bottom of the centre aiming circle is a precise 300 metre hold‐over aiming point for the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. The 200m zero is also a very useful setting for close‐quarters shooting from 10 metres to 50 metres for most calibres, and will enable hunt‐accurate shooting up to 300m without the need to adjust the scope. The expanding graduations in the four outer posts are designed primarily to lead the shooter’s eye to the centre aiming area but also serve as holding off aiming points for fast‐moving targets.
Recoil tested up to .450 Rigby, LX3 1-6x24 is suitable for everyday use on any bushveld calibre. The 30mm thick-walled scope tube is contoured specifically to fit over long actions and, when the scope is correctly mounted and proper shooting posture is observed, the 100mm-plus eye relief will make sure that a safe distance is maintained between your brow and the scope eyepiece at all times.

The ranging scale, calibrated to range 50cm high target from 200 metres to 1 200 metres in 100 metre increments and 33cm & 25cm high targets from 200 metres to 600 metres, is inset at the bottom of the sight picture.
0.1 Mil Click Tactical Controls
Low-profile tactical controls elevation control is fitted with an easy to engage zero stop function which permits full upward adjustment of the point of aim and returns precisely to your pre-determined zero position.
The scope adjustment controls are engraved with large, highly-visible numbers which make them easy to read in poor light. Each click moves the point of aim 0.1 mil and one full revolution of the control moves the point of aim 5 mils, which matches the length of the measured centre portion of the reticle.
The parallax focus wheel is mounted on the side of the scope with the reticle illuminator switch. Parallax is focusable from 35 metres to beyond infinity.

LX3 5-30x56 M20 Tac
Extra low dispersion glass and the latest anti-reflective lens coating technology gives brilliant image clarity and brightness. See bullet holes in your target at distances over 300 metres, range conditions permitting.
100MOA Elevation Adjustment with Zero Stop
The adjustment controls are precise, each click is distinctly felt and moves the point of aim precisely 1/4MOA. The zero-stop mechanism is simple to engage and returns with absolute accuracy to your predetermined zero-elevation position. All markings on the adjustment controls are bold and highly-visible, making them easy to read even if your eyesight is less than perfect.
At 20x the reticle lines subtend 2.5mm at 100m, which is fine enough for accurate shot placement without being too difficult to see, and fifteen indicator markings, evenly spaced 1-MOA apart, run along the full length of each crosswire from centre. The ranging scale inset at the top of the reticle provides a quick and accurate means of ranging a 20cm high target from 200 to 500 metres. In poor light the reticle can be green-illuminated using the eleven-step brightness control which is mounted atop the parallax wheel on the saddle of the scope.
MOA@20 Illuminated reticle (glass etched reticle)
A reticle for competition shooters. Fifteen hash marks on each quadrant, 1 MOA apart with magnification set to 20x, facilitate versatile and simple aiming off points. The 2.5mm thick @ 20x reticle lines are fine enough to use for long range target shooting but are still visible with less than perfect eyesight. Depending on range conditions, distance to target and visibility the centre of the reticle can be used either in a conventional manner as a 1 MOA floating crosshair or to bracket an area of the target. An unobtrusive range scale inset into the bottom part of the 6 o'clock leg of the reticle ranges a 20cm high targets from 200 to 500 metres.
The number and indicators on the controls are bold and highly visible and should be easy to see even if your eyesight is less than perfect. The side‐focus parallax focusses from 35 metres to beyond infinity and the illumination on the reticle is adjustable in eleven steps in intensity with off‐settings between each brightness level.
