Smaller Magnification, Same Tactical Edge
The Tauron Compact 4-16x50 keeps everything that makes the 6-24x great—first focal plane accuracy, zero stop, LaREE HD glass—but wraps it into a more compact package with a more accessible zoom range. This model is ideal for medium- to long-range shooters who want all the features of a serious optic without going overboard on magnification.
The VTA-3 MIL reticle offers centre-illuminated precision with fine 0.04 MIL markings, while the side parallax and zero stop turrets let you dial and return with confidence. Built around a beefy 34mm tube, this scope has the adjustment range and ruggedness required for high-recoil rifles and demanding environments.
Key Features:
4–16x Magnification with FFP VTA-3 MIL Reticle – MIL-accurate holdovers at any zoom level
LaREE HD Glass & Fully Multi-Coated Lenses – Clarity that performs in all light conditions
Zero Stop Turrets – Quickly return to zero after dialing elevation
6-Level Illumination – Bright centre dot for low light use
34mm Tube – Extra internal adjustment range for dialling at distance
Side Focus Parallax Adjustment – From 15 yards to infinity
IP67 Waterproof, 1000G Shockproof, and Nitrogen Filled – Weather and recoil ready
Lifetime Warranty – No-nonsense backup for peace of mind

Important Setup Note:
All recoil ratings and range capabilities are quoted based on proper installation using quality mounts on a suitable rail system. Just because a scope is rated for 1000G recoil or specified for long-range performance doesn’t mean your current rifle or mounting solution will extract that potential right away. Every setup is different—think of this as part of the fact-finding journey. If in doubt, ask first.

Scope Mounts Not Included - Read Before Buying
Not all scopes come with mounts – and that includes many Vector Optics models. Why? Because there’s no such thing as a “one-size-fits-all all” mount. Barrel diameter, rail type, and clearance all matter. That’s why we ask you to choose your mounts when adding a Vector Optics scope to your cart.

A Few Things You Really Need to Know:
- We can advise, but you are ultimately responsible for choosing the right mounts.
-
If in doubt, go for high mounts – they’ll generally give you more breathing room and avoid contact with the barrel or shroud.
-
95% of scope issues we see are down to poor mounting, not the scope itself. Wobbly zero? Misalignment? That’s on the mounts.
You wouldn’t bolt a car engine in with guesswork – don’t do it with optics either.
Didn’t Select Mounts?
If you don’t pick mounts, we’ll chuck in a basic pair – but they may not fit your setup, and we’re not responsible if they don’t. This is a polite (ish) reminder that reading the above and selecting your mounts is very much part of the process.
In short: read, choose, and mount properly. Or accept the consequences – and don’t say we didn’t warn you.
