Zeiss V8 1.8-14×50 M Riflescope with Reticle 54
The Zeiss V8 1.8-14×50 M is a high-performance hunting scope designed for stalkers, woodland shooters, and driven-hunt scenarios where precision and speed are essential. It offers a versatile magnification range from 1.8× to 14×, suitable for close-range game to longer stalking shots. The 50 mm objective lens ensures excellent light gathering, especially during low-light conditions such as dawn and dusk.
The ‘M’ model features a 30 mm main tube with an integrated rail mount. This allows the scope to be removed and replaced without affecting the rifle’s zero, making it ideal for hunters who use the same rifle across different regions or seasons.

Excellent light gathering with the 50 mm objective. Works well in dawn and dusk conditions. The illuminated dot in the reticle helps with precision. I’ve used it in multiple hunting seasons and it holds zero perfectly when swapped out.
Pippa Walsh –
The magnification range is very useful for different game types. The reticle is minimal and doesn’t distract from target focus. Slight learning curve with the illuminated dot, but once adjusted, it’s very accurate.
