Hawke Vantage IR 3-9x40mm Rimfire Riflescope – Illuminated Red/Green .22 LR Subsonic BDC Reticle

The Hawke Sport Optics Vantage IR 3-9x40mm Rimfire Riflescope (Model 14223) is purpose-built for .22 LR subsonic shooters who demand precision from the first shot to the last. Featuring Hawke’s exclusive illuminated Rimfire 22LR Subsonic reticle, this scope delivers a caliber-specific Bullet Drop Compensating (BDC) system that takes the guesswork out of holdover at varying distances.

Zero the scope at 50 yards on 9x magnification and the etched BDC reticle provides accurate aim points in 25-yard increments out to 200 yards — all optimized for .22 LR ammunition in the 38–40gr range at approximately 1,040–1,090 fps. For metric users, set magnification to 7.9x with a 50m zero and the reticle aim points align precisely in metric increments. Illuminated red and green aim points ensure visibility across all lighting conditions, from bright sunny fields to low-light dawn and dusk hunts.

Housed in a durable 1-inch tube with a 40mm objective lens, the Vantage IR offers a clear, bright sight picture in a lightweight, low-profile package that pairs perfectly with rimfire rifles. Distances are etched directly into the reticle field of view for fast, confident target acquisition — no guessing, no math, just accurate shooting.

Whether you’re hunting small game, plinking at the range, or running precision rimfire competitions, the Hawke Vantage IR 3-9x40mm is an exceptional value that performs well above its price point.
