Kahles K540i 5-40x56i Riflescope

Kahles K540i 5-40x56i Riflescope. The groundbreaking K540i sets new performance standards with a pioneering new-generation optical design. It offers a 40 % wider field of view*, an exceptionally comfortable eyebox and 8 x zoom with perfect optical performance across the entire adjustment range.

1st focal plane
When viewing the reticle in the first image plane, the reticle size also changes when the magnification is changed. The bar spacing and the coverage range remain the same.

Main tube 36 mm
The main tube has a diameter of 36 mm.

Adjustment direction CW or CCW
Depending on the model, elevation and windage are working clockwise (= cw) or counter-clockwise (= ccw).

MIL
Clicks in MRAD. 0.1 MRAD correspond to a shift of the point of impact of 1 cm/100 m.

Windage left or right
Superior handling and ergonomics thanks to the unique arrangement of operating elements

Due to the unique arrangement, all operating elements can easily and comfortably be operated with the intuitively preferred hand. Without having to reach over the riflescope or having to move out of the shooting position, all relevant information is always in the visual field. All riflescopes of the K-series have the parallax wheel integrated into the elevation turret.

The patented central arrangement on top of the riflescope makes right and left-handed operation equally comfortable.

Ergonomically the windage is perfectly placed on the left side for right-handed shooters and on the right side for left-hand shooters.

Zero Stop
The Zero Stop or mechanical stopping point is 3 or 4 clicks below the zero indicator and can be activated after having zeroed the scope. This feature allows to find intuitively and quickly the zero indicator (e.g. in bad light conditions) and to adapt perfectly to special circumstances, such as e.g. high temperatures or very close targets.

TWIST GUARD windage
Unique TWIST GUARD windage (patented)
The innovative TWIST GUARD windage with it’s freely rotating end cover, reliably prevents accidental movement of the windage. This simple solution not only protects the windage from accidental movement, it also allows the shooter fast and unhindered handling of the windage without the need for cumbersome “locking” and “unlocking”.
