Steiner 10x42 R Tactical Binoculars

The new 10x42 R Tactical binocular has been developed as a compact roof-prism tactical surveillance and operations binocular incorporating the newly developed SUMR targeting reticle system. Using entirely new optical system formulations, new, fully multi-coated optics and a completely new shock and waterproof housing, the 10x binocular delivers a new standard of performance in a tactical binocular allowing faster and more accurate communications between the spotter/observer and shooter or weapons delivery personnel.

By building Steiner's universal reticle system into a 10x roof prism binocular, Steiner is able to offer the observer a smaller, rugged and light weight binocular in a power that matches the favored magnification used in many of the newer 10x military rifle scopes used by SWAT, Army, Air Force and Marine SOF Forces. The reticle is based on the standard Mil System and can also be used to effectively accomplish observations, coordinate direct and indirect fire, close air suport observations and delivery of PFM munitions.

The Steiner SUMR (Steiner Universal Mil Reticle) 10x42 Binocular displays the reticle on the right view side. Reticle focus can be adjusted via an eyepiece diopter. There is a left side diopter adjustment for image focus also, as well as a 1.5 turn center focus wheel. The reticle was designed to offer long distance, large target rangeing ability with 5 to 10 mil increments on the outer reticle quadrants that reduce down to single mil, half mil, and 0.2 mil spacing in the center of the reticle for smaller targets or greater distances. This combination makes the reticle truly universal.
