Nimrod 10×40 Rifle Scope For Sale

SOLD OUT

Nimrod 10×40 rifle scope is a very rare item of Israeli military surplus made by Koor Industries of Israel and originally by Hakko of Japan.  The Nimrod scope was used mainly on the M14 and Galil sniper rifles and replaced the old style Wild scopes used on the IDF K98 and IDF Kahles ZF95 scopes used after.

This is the last Nimrod scope that we know of in Israel that is available for sale.

Some specifics:

Bullet drop compensated for the .308/7.62 NATO M118 Sniper round.

Magnification of 10-power.

Objective diameters: 40 mm.

Field of view: 19.6 meters at 300 meters (3 degrees 45 feet).

Eye relief is about 3 inches.

Two auxiliary crosses, one for aiming at 900 and 1,000 meters, the other for high-trajectory ammunition.  Range estimation with the reticle pattern duplicates that of the (Dragunov Russian sniper rifle).  At the bottom of the field of view is a baseline below five short steps. The step closest to the baseline is marked ’10’ for 1,000 meters, while the farthest is marked ‘2’ for 200 meters. The three steps in between correspond to 800, 600 and 400 meters in ascending order. Just align the target’s groin with the baseline and match the top of his head with the appropriate step. Dial the correct distance into the range drum on top of the scope calibrated in 50-meter clicks from 200 to 800 meters for 7.62x51mm M118 match ammunition and fire. The windage, located on the scope’s left side, provides five mils of adjustment to the right or left in 1/2-mil increments.
