DESCRIPTION

Optical sights Jaeger are designed for target shooting using weapon of various calibres, including large ones.

• Jaeger 1-4x24 - is a light and compact sight designed primarily for driving hunt.
• Jaeger 1.5-6x42 - is a universal model for driving hunt, shooting moving targets at short distances and average distances.
• Jaeger 3-9x40 - is designed for shooting in low light conditions small-, average- and large-sized targets at short, average and long distances. This model features a perfect balance between weight/size and range of magnifications.
• Jaeger 3-12x56 – is a model with a high light gathering capacity which allows use even in the twilight. The model is suitable for shooting small targets at long distances.

OPERATION

Battery installation

• Unscrew the cover of the battery container.
• Remove the protective film from the battery.
  • Install a CR2354 battery into the battery container according to the marking, tighten the cover.

Focusing the eyepiece

• Look at a distant object through the eyepiece (2), eye relief should be around 90 mm.
• If the reticle image is blurry, rotate the diopter adjustment ring (1) until the image is sharp and clear.
  WARNING: Never look at the sun through the riflescope (or any other optical instrument) - it may permanently damage your eyes.

Mounting on a rifle

• To ensure precise shooting the sight should be correctly mounted on a rifle.
• Use a high-quality mount with bases (not included) designed to fit your type of rifle.
• The scope should be mounted as low as possible without touching either the barrel or the receiver. Before tightening the mount rings make sure you have the necessary eye relief that allows you to see a full field of view.

WARNING: If the scope does not have sufficient eye relief, its rearward motion may injure the shooter when the rifle recoils.

ZEROING

(The below described zeroing procedure is designed for Jaeger sights with reticles X01i, T01i or M01.

Zeroing procedure for sights with X02i reticle can be found in the X02i description file).

Bore sighting is a preliminary procedure to achieve proper alignment of the sight with the rifle's bore.

Set a target at a distance of about 100 m.

• Mount the rifle with the riflescope installed on a bench rest.
• Aim at a target.
• Adjust the eyepiece (1) to achieve a sharp image of the target.
  • Take aim and shoot at the centre of the target.
• If the point of impact did not match with the aiming point, unscrew the caps of windage (3) and elevation (4) turrets and use the turrets to line up the centre of the reticle and the point of impact as follows:

• if the point of impact is lower than the aiming point,

• weapon requires shot correction upward (U), corresponding to counterclockwise turn of the elevation turret (4).

• if the point of impact is higher than the aiming point, weapon requires shot correction downward (D), corresponding to clockwise turn of the elevation turret (4).
• if the point of impact is to the left of the aiming point, weapon requires shot correction to the right (R), corresponding to counterclockwise turn of the windage turret (5).
• if the point of impact is to the right of the aiming point, weapon requires shot correction to the right (L), corresponding to clockwise turn of the windage turret (5).
  • Take two shots. If required, re-zero the reticle.
• After zeroing pull out the windage/elevation turrets from the catch and set the zero mark of the subring to the index point. Push the turret down in the catch. The index is useful to find the original location again for later reticle adjustments in the future.
  ATTENTION! Each "click" of the Adjustment Scale Ring will change bullet impact by 1/4 MOA (Minute of Angle) which equates to 7 mm at 100 meters (for the model #23025: 12 MOA - 15 mm at 100 m).

AIMING RETICLES

All Jaeger optical sights are equipped with various types of reticle (see the table below). All reticles have a red illuminated dot. To change illumination power, rotate the knob (6) opposite the corresponding mark on the housing showing one of the eight illumination levels. After setting the required value, rotate the knob per one click clockwise or counterclockwise to turn off the illuminated dot.

Reticle illumination is powered by a single CR2354

Lithium battery. To replace the battery, unscrew the cover of the knob (6) counterclockwise and insert a new battery with "+" facing upwards.

Note: please note that if the sight is to be used with a Night Vision attachment, reticle illumination level should be set to "NV".

JAEGER RETICLES

X01i Cross shaped reticle with illuminated dot. X02i Cross shaped reticle with illuminated dot and a scale allowing distance measurement to an object with known sizes and windage/elevation scale 9/12x. T01i T-shaped reticle with illuminated dot. M01 Mil-Dot reticle, works correctly if magnification is set to 9/12x.

The reticles in the Jaeger sights are in the second (rear) image level. The advantage of such location is that the reticle is not magnified during magnification change but always remains the same.

But the angular size of the reticle changes proportionally to the change of magnification.

CHANGE OF MAGNIFICATION

To change magnification, rotate the Zoom Ring (3) to align the required number on the power scale with the index dot.

When still-hunting or stalking game, a variable scope should be set to lower magnifications at close range. Higher magnifications should be reserved for precise long-range shots.

TECHNICAL INSPECTION

It is recommended that you inspect the riflescope before every use. Make sure to check for the following:

• Visually inspect the condition of the battery and the battery compartment the battery should be free of electrolyte and oxidation residue, especially where the battery makes contact with metal.

TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE

Technical maintenance should be done no less than twice a year, and is comprised in the following steps:

- Clean the outside metallic and plastic surfaces from dust, dirt and moisture wipe the scope with a soft lint free cloth.
