In 2024, KAHLES successfully launched the new era of tactical rifle scopes with the K328i. For the first time in the company’s history, a completely new technical platform was developed specially to meet the demands of modern sports rifle scopes with reticles in the first focal plane. Today, just one year later, we can introduce the next GAME-CHANGER, but now with 40X magnification, based on the ground-breaking new-generation optics with 8x zoom.
The new K5-40x56i offers a breathtaking viewing experience across the entire adjustment range and impresses with a 40% wider field of view* and an exceptional eyebox offering more comfort than ever before – even at 40X magnification. It features an extremely precise elevation turret with 160 clicks per rotation and is available with the AMR, MSR2/Ki and SKMR4+ reticles in the first focal plane. The K540i combines absolute precision, repeat accuracy and unique handling for maximum performance at long distances.
*) Based on comparison with the K525i at 25x magnification.
In contrast to the K540i, the second model, the new K5-40x56i DLR, has a special DLR elevation turret with 100 clicks per rotation and the helpful EasyRead turret lettering, which offers a significant advantage in dynamic long-range competitions with an emphasis on speed. The K540i DLR is available with the SKMR+ and SKMR4+ reticles, developed and optimised for the demands of sports shooting.
