The Hawke Prism Sight 6x36 5.56 BDC Dot Weaver is a compact, fixed-magnification optic engineered for mid-range targeting on sporting rifles, chassis rifles, and carbines. Built with 25-layer fully multi-coated optics and a 36 mm objective lens, it delivers a 19.2 ft field of view at 100 yards (6.4 m at 100 m). The sight utilizes a glass-etched illuminated 5.56 BDC Dot reticle featuring a red horseshoe and center dot, backed by 10 digital brightness stages (8 daylight settings and 2 night-vision levels). It integrates Auto-Off and Shake-Awake motion-sensing technology powered by a single CR2032 battery. Featuring an Aimpoint Micro T-2 base pattern, it includes interchangeable low-profile and lower 1/3 co-witness Weaver/Picatinny rail mounts.

Key Features

Who is the Hawke Prism Sight 6x36 5.56 BDC Dot Weaver for?

• Mid-range tactical target shooters — benefits from this fixed 6x prism sight's compact 104 mm length and broad 140 MOA elevation and windage adjustment range to rapidly transition across targets out to 600 yards.
• Hunters using 5.56 or .223 centrefire rifles — benefits from this fixed 6x prism sight's low carry weight of 264 g and a 19.2 ft at 100 yards field of view paired with dedicated ballistic holdovers.

Less suitable for: Close-quarters shooting inside 15 to 25 yards, where a true 1x red dot or low-power variable optic (LPVO) provides faster target acquisition; engagements beyond 600 yards, which require a dedicated high-magnification variable riflescope with adjustable parallax; or high-recoil magnum calibres with non-chassis stocks, which require a traditional riflescope with 3.5 to 4.0 inches of eye relief to prevent optic strike instead of the 72 mm eye relief.
