Zero Tech 5-30x56mm Rifle Scope

Zero Tech Optics is unveiling its newest scope, the new Trace Advanced 5-30x56mm riflescope meant for long-distance precision shooting. This new product can be had in two sub-variants, one with the famous Tremor 3 reticle designed by Todd Hodnett and the other with the RMG 2 Illuminated reticle. These Japanese-made riflescopes are built around a 34 mm main tube and make use of locking diopters to fine tune the optical prescription along with dual throw levers to adjust the magnification level and push button activation for digital illumination.

“We are so excited to finally unveil the Trace Advanced 5-30X56mm riflescope to the market,” said Ben Clarke, CMO at ZeroTech Optics. “Our collaboration with HORUS Vision and the implementation of our RMG 2 reticle has resulted in a precision instrument that meets the highest standards of performance. We are confident that the Trace Advanced will set a new standard in the industry, providing competition and ELR shooters with a robust and reliable optic that doesn’t compromise on quality or price.”

New Pistol Suppressors for 2025

We hear you (pun intended)! This year, we are reporting manufacturer’s sound-reduction rating where available. Now, not every manufacturer makes that information publicly available, so you’ll see a fair number of “N/As” where no decibel-reduction numbers were provided, but rest assured that, despite what you might think, the noise-reduction rating is one of the least important factors when choosing a new suppressor (more on that in a future article).
