Aztec Culture

The editor looks through a highly spec’d scope from a new brand

 

The scope market is a very congested place to be, so you’d be pretty brave to launch a new brand against the industry giants that have the lion’s share of the market, in my opinion. You’d be even braver to make your first model a very specialised long-range job. With that in mind, say hello to Aztec Optics and their Emerald 5.5-25 x 50 opener. It ticks all the boxes for the modern airgunner: 30mm body tube, check: 50mm objective, check: exposed oversized adjuster drums, check: fancy reticle? Double check! Box full of accessories: check. Most importantly for a scope that claims to be airgun compatible, parallax adjustment that dials down to 10 yards for close-range ratting and the like.
