A Better View of the World

Sports Optics

As our society becomes more technologically advanced and we ďŹ nd ourselves spending less and less time communing with nature, we feel that the time we do spend becomes more important for our overall well-being and inner balance.

Enhancing our outdoor experience is the viewing of nature and wildlife in its natural setting. Even though the human eye represents the ďŹ nest and most sophisticated optical instrument ever designed, it may require man-made optical mechanical assistance from time to time to take in all of nature’s glorious beauty!

Meopta products are designed and built to enhance the viewing experience of even the most demanding professional. We strongly recommend you make a Meopta optical product part of your regular outdoor experience, for an even Better View of the World !

Meostar R1

Meostar R1 7x56

The most technologically advanced series of new generation riflescopes that meet the needs of the most demanding users. The tube is made of the highest grade aluminum alloy which allows the surface of the device to be black anodized. This surface treatment is molecularly bonded to the aluminum alloy, making the tube surface extremely chemical resistant.

In addition, the surface is treated by a special technology so that no finger prints can be seen and it is pleasant to touch. The anti-reflection coating MB5501 makes use of the latest technology in the field, and is applied to all optical components, ensuring the top light transmission values for the riflescopes.

Lightweight, one-piece, aircraft grade aluminum alloy tube Unique internal mechanism design ensures top mechanical ruggedness Excellent optical performance Multiple antireflection coatings MB-5501 ensuring light transmission of 92% – 95% (depending on the model) Reticle in the rear focal plane (except for the model Meostar R1 3-12x56) A nitrogen purged and sealed body for fog proof and water proof performance Quadratic windage and elevation adjustments with a step of ¼ in / 100 yd, i.e. 0,7cm / 100m

The Meostar R1 1-4x22 model with illuminated K-Dot reticle is specifically designed for hunting in the daytime as well as low light situations. A riflescope versatile enough for use as a dangerous game hunting scope as it is in close quarter combat situations. At maximum intensity, the K-Dot reticle is visible in sunny conditions, while at its lowest settings, still ideal for late dawn or early dusk. With magnification set to 1x power and the reticle illuminated, the riflescope may be used a short range, close quarter sighting device, by allowing the user to keep both eyes open. This allows for a clear, substantially improved field of view while also providing quick target acquisition. The illumination adjustment (located to the left of the elevation turret) offers seven levels of intensity (with seven being the brightest) with half-click on/off positions. Off positions are signified by a dot, while numbers 1-7 indicate the illumination intensity. This unique feature allows for a quick return to the previously used intensity instead of having to cycle thru the entire adjustment range each time the illumination is turned off. The service life of the CR 2354 battery (included) is roughly 80 continuous hours, while a more readily available CR 2032 battery may also be used, however the service life is only about 60 continuous hours.

The Meostar R1 RD 7x56 and 3-12x56 models are designed for hunting in extreme low light conditions at early dawn or late dusk. Many prized animals can only be found moving about during these difficult low light conditions, and the Meostar R1 RD models will help ensure that you do not miss out on the potential trophy of a lifetime.

Meostar R1 Tactic

A riflescope designed to meet the needs of serious long-range shooters. Designed with an adjustable objective for setting zero parallax at distances from 3 meters to infinity, as well as low profile target knobs, enabling fast field setting of the line of sight (reticle cross-hairs center) in terms of the target distance and relevant windage adjustment. The covered adjustment knobs have single click values of 0,7 mm/100 m, 1/4 in/100 yd or 1/4 MOA. The vertical scale serves for orientation when turning the knob by more than 360°. The elevation knob allows for calibration of bullet drop at any known distance and can be re-set to zero. The windage knob allows for quick left/right adjustment to compensate for bullet drift due to cross winds. Fitted with a Mil-Dot style reticle this scope enables the user to quickly and precisely determine the exact distance of an intended target at virtually any range.

Meosight

Use of Mil-Dot style cross-hairs The dots placed on the stadia equal an angle of 1 m at 1000 m, or 1 milliradian. In military terminology this angle is called 1 mil. The distance D can be determined by a simple calculation using the formula D = 1000 x H / h, where H stands for the actual target height in meters and h stands for its angular height in scale divisions. For very precise range finding it is therefore necessary to know the exact target height. With experience in approximate target size, very accurate estimates of the distance to the target can be made. With an adult Roebuck body trunk height estimated to be 0.5 m and as seen in the illustration the distance is calculated as follows: D = 1000 x 0.5 / 6 = 83 m. Caution! The above method of range finding provides correct results only with riflescope set on the maximum magnification, i.e. 16x.

Meosight Introduced in 2008, the Meopta Meosight is the first of our offerings to target the ever growing Red Dot Sight market. An extremely compact reflex sight designed for immediate close quarter target acquisition and accurate shooting, the Meosight is quickly becoming a favorite of law enforcement and military personnel across the globe. At just 55 grams, the Meosight is a perfect fit for handguns, tactical shotguns and tactical rifles of all shapes and sizes.

Artemis

Artemis 2000 4x32

Artemis 2000 6x42

Traditional riflescope series in the truest sense of the word. It offers favorite and proven models made of traditional materials. The solid steel tube is the distinctive feature of the whole Artemis 2000 and 2100 series.

Top shock resistance, excellent optical power, watertightness and elegant, fully functional design these are the properties that will be appreciated both by newcomers, as well as by professionals for whom hunting is an inseparable part of their lifestyles.

• Steel tube (except for the model Artemis 3000 3-9x42) • Unique internal mechanism design ensures the pinnacle of mechanical ruggedness • Excellent optical performance

The Artemis 2100 series offers an illuminated center dot for hunting in low light conditions.

The illumination of the center dot under normal daylight conditions is observable only when set on intensity level 6 or 7, so that no matter how small the target is, it will not be overwhelmed or lost in the brightness of the dot when illuminated. The brightness levels can be adjusted with the knob on the left side of the elevation turret in seven steps marked 1-7 (with 7 being the brightest). The interpositions marked with a dot, provide an interim off position between each intensity level, allowing for quick, single click on and off operation. The service life of the original battery, a CR2354, is roughly 80 hours. It is also possible to use a more readily available battery, the CR2032, which has a service life of about 60 hours.

Elevation Quadratic course of adjustment adjustment Quadratic course of adjustment means that windage and elevation adjustments are mutually independent and as such, guarantees a full range of movement in any direction. The illustration below shows a comparison of a full range of meopta adjustment for a Meopta riflescope and a „no-name“ riflescope. You will note that in some directions, the adjustment range of the „no-name“ riflescope exceeds the Meopta range. However, in important (especially in the diagonal or windage Windage adjustment direction) directions it attains insufficient adjustment range. Irregular circumference of the adjustment field of the „noname“ scope indicates that horizontal and vertical movements are not independent (especially in extreme positions) and are each affected when only one is adjusted, i.e., when turning the windage adjustment knob the reticle also moves in the vertical or elevation direction. no -n am e

Tube construction, steel or aluminum alloy The question of which is better for riflescope tube construction, Steel or Aluminum, has been pondered for many years, and the answer still remains the same. Both have properties that make each one of them advantageous.

Steel tubes are the most resistant to external damage, while aluminum alloy offers a lighter product. But both provide strong durable outer protection for the internal mechanism and optics when used properly. Meopta is proud to be able to offer both. If getting the highest level of strength and durability is most important, then try our Artemis 2000 or 2100 Series. If weight is your main concern, then our Artemis 3000 and MeostarTM series are just what you are looking for. Construction of Meopta riflescopes with steel tubes offers an additional advantage. As with virtually any material, an extreme temperature change can cause expansion and contraction and thus vary the alignment of inner and outer mechanisms, resulting in minor shifts in parallax at 100 M. However, with the consistent properties of steel we are able design and build riflescopes that control this problem. As a result, null parallax shift at 100 M in production means null parallax shift at 100 M in the hottest African or the coldest Alaskan environment!

Reticle in front or rear focal plane Placement of the reticle (crosshairs) in the front focal plane (behind the objective lens) means that with increased magnification both the target image and the reticle thickness increase (Artemis 2000, 2100; Meostar R1 3-12x56 model offer front focal plain reticles). Placing the reticle in the rear focal plane (in front of the eyepiece) allows the reticle to maintain its virtual size throughout the entire magnification range. (The Meostar series offer the reticle in the rear focal plain, see the chart below) So shortly: • all fixed magnification riflescopes are not affected by the reticle position • a reticle positioned in the front focal plane enables the user to use the reticle distance estimation scale and opitches of thick lines for measuring distance at any magnification.

Meostar R1r 3-12x56 Contrary to its predecessor (Meostar R1 3-12x56 model) Meostar R1r 3-12x56 has the reticle located in the rear focus plane, which logically makes the Meostar R1 line complete.

Use of the distance scale with 4A, 4B reticles To use the distance scale in your riflescope, simply line up the target or the portion of the target, whose height you estimate to be 0.5 m (this dimension is indicated by the number 0.5 to the left of the scale), on the bottom line in the ranging scale. Once you have done this then the number that coincides with the top of your target indicates the targets distance in hundreds of meters. For example, if the body trunk height of an adult Roebuck is estimated to be 0.5 m, then as seen in the illustration this Roebuck is approximately 200 meters away from the shooter.

KODAS (Club for Protection of Birds of Prey and Owls, branch of Children of the Earth) is a non-profit group of people who are extremely concerned with the fate of endangered birds of prey and owls. They realize the dire situations of these birds and have banded together to change this dismal state. In all KODAS projects, they strive to create conditions where birds of prey and owls can return to their environment, protect their nests during nesting times and to change the general attitude towards these amazing and graceful birds.

The main objective of the Falco project is to provide vigilant protection to endangered nests of rare birds of prey within the framework of Action Falco and Action Aquila. The secondary mission is to monitor areas where illegal bird trafficking is at its worst and to bring light to these so-called “bird crimes”.

For observing nests and birds KODAS uses Meopta Meostar S1 spotting scopes and Meostar B1 binoculars

Meopta DP1 30x eyepiece fits most compact digital cameras with an optical zoom span of up to 6x. The Meopta DP1 30x does not work with SLR and DSLR cameras.

In many instances, pictures will be bordered by a black frame with rounded corners. This is normal, but can be edited using any photo editing software, if so desired.

For best results, it is important to minimize vibrations in your digiscoping set-up. A solid tripod is a must, while a remote shutter release offers a significant advantage.

Meopta H75 30x WA-R The Meopta H75 30x WA-R is a fixed power wide-angle eyepiece, which has been designed for the TGA 75. What makes this eyepiece unique is that it has been fitted with a ranging reticle (cross) enabling the user to estimate the distance of the object being observed. Use of the ranging reticle to estimate distance: The dash lines placed from top to bottom on thin lines subtend the angle of 1 m at 1000 m, i.e. 1 milliradian. In military terminology this angle is called 1 mil.

The distance D can be determined by a simple calculation using the formula D = 1000 x H / h, where H stands for the actual target height in meter and h stands for its angular height in scale divisions. For precise range finding it is necessary for the user to know the exact or estimated target height. For example, the estimated height of an adult Roebuck body trunk is 0.5 m and with angular height in the reticle screen as seen in the illustration below the distance is calculated as follows: D = 1000 x 0,5 /h = 125 m.
