Steiner Ranger 4 series

After six years, a renowned Ranger series of five scopes has received a makeover. We can call the Ranger 4 as the second generation of Ranger. The original Ranger rifle scopes were one of the finest hunting rifle scopes available for such a low price, and the second generation continues that reputation.

Models in Ranger 4 series:

  • Steiner Ranger 4 1-4×24 for driven hunt

  • Steiner Ranger 4 3-12×56 twilight specialist

  • Steiner Ranger 4 2.5-10×50 all-round hunting scope

  • Steiner Ranger 4 6-24×56 long-range hunting scope

  • Steiner Ranger 4 4-16×56 was originally discontinued, but it has since been reintroduced

Optical Properties

The most noticeable improvement is probably the field of view, which has been made wider. At 3x magnification, the rifle scope now provides 13 meters of the FOV at 100 meters. The difference, when compared to the first generation, is about 5 to 10% in terms of fields of view.

The light transmission rate has been improved and the colors are better. The riflescopes also fares slightly better at night and in low light. The image is very sharp, there is no tunnel effect.

Physical Properties

The Steiner Ranger 4 3-12×56 is a 640-gram rifle scope that measures 35 centimeters in length. For this sort of rifle scope, it’s rather standard weight and length. Even in temperatures as low as minus 25 degrees Celsius, you won’t have to deal with internal fogging. It comes with a robust aluminum housing and is also waterproof.

With Ranger 4 3-12×56 the parallax is fixed at 100 meters. There are now plus, and minus symbols on the diopter dial for an easier diopter adjustment. The clicks on the turrets are further apart and they produce crisper sounds.

The Ranger 4 3-12×56 comes with a redesigned reticle. In the old series, the lines used to intersect in the middle, and the dot appeared at the intersection when the illumination was turned on. With the new model, the intersection has been replaced with a fine dot and there is a small gap between the lines.

The new Ranger 4 3-12×56 model has eleven illumination settings, and they’re split into two sections – the first six of which are for dusk use. Levels from 7 to 11 are more daytime usable, even though they are not strong daytime usable.

The turrets may be reset to zero in a matter of seconds. One revolution has 60 clicks. There are 11.6 MILs of elevation altogether.

Steiner Ranger 4 3-12×56 comes with a 30-millimeter tube for mounting purposes. It’s unusual for riflescopes in this price range to come with a mounting rail.
