Description
Featuring a 30 mm tube diameter, the ALPEN OPTICS Apex XP 1.5-9×45 is a universal riflescope for day and twilight hunts. The duplex illuminated reticle is located in the second focal plane and does not increase in size when you zoom in. In addition, with the ALPEN OPTICS Apex XP 1.5-9×45 riflescope you don’t need to do any calculations using the MOA (minute of angle) system, as you can adjust the reticle using MRAD – i.e. 1 click = 1 cm at 100 metres

Lightweight and durable design
Thanks to the short dimensions and lightweight construction weighing just 599 g, this riflescope is perfect for use with attachments. It also features a robust, recoil-proof design. And thanks to the waterproof housing, the ALPEN OPTICS Apex XP 1.5-9×45 is also suitable for use in adverse weather conditions.
Zoom with FluoDigits technology
Easy to use – the zoom ring features a grooved design and can be moved effortlessly with a small knob. Thanks to the built-in FluoDigits technology, the riflescope is also suitable for use in low-light conditions and with attachments: the FluoDigits system displays the zoom level discreetly so that you don’t reveal your location – with a battery life of at least 5 hours.
Coating
This riflescope for day and twilight hunting features a premium and innovative coating that produces clear and razor-sharp images.
Innovative SmartDot Technology
Weatherproof and recoil-proof
Thanks to the premium ALPEN optics, the riflescope is also suitable for use in adverse weather conditions. It is waterproof to up to 3 metres (IPX7), and can therefore withstand strong rain, snow, fog or even a short spell in a stream. The sturdy housing provides a reliable seal and prevents liquid from getting inside the optics. In addition, the optics are filled with nitrogen to prevent the lens from fogging up and obstructing your view in the event of abrupt changes in temperature. As a premium riflescope, the ALPEN OPTICS Apex XP is recoil-resistant up to 1000 grams (equivalent to a Magnum caliber).
MOA and MRAD Differences
The MOA and MRAD turrent systems refer to two different measurement systems: metric and imperial. The Metric and the Imperial. Thus, the imperial system uses MOA and inches, and the metric system uses MRAD and centimeters. Therefore, at some point the question arises which turrent system is the better one. First and foremost, it's a matter of habit and personal preference.
MOA
MOA stands for Minute Of Angle and corresponds to 1 / 60 of a degree. The system is suitable for those familiar with the imperial system, since it is calculated in inches. 1 MOA is equivalent to 1.047'' at 100 yd (2.9 cm at 100 m).
MRAD
MRAD stands for milliradian and is 1 / 1000 of a radian (angular measure). 0.1 MRAD / MIL is equivalent to 1 cm at 100 m and is suitable for those using the metric system. One advantage of the metric system is, that it is very easy to calculate. The shooting distance (unit meter) can be quickly converted into the unit of turret adjustment (centimeter). One click of an MRAD click adjustment thus corresponds to 3 cm (0.03 m) at a firing distance of 300 m. ALPEN Optics uses MRAD 0.1 click adjustments for all riflescopes.
