The Simmons Pro Target 3-9x40 30mm Mil-Dot Riflescope (Model: SIM3940C) delivers dependable optical performance and rugged durability in a highly versatile package. Built around a one-piece 30mm aluminum main tube, this riflescope is engineered to withstand heavy recoil and harsh field conditions. Featuring an all-glass, fully coated optical system, it offers clear, high-contrast imagery that aids in precise target acquisition under various lighting conditions, including early morning and late evening. The nitrogen-purged, IPX7-rated waterproof and shockproof construction ensures that internal lenses remain completely fog-free, even when transitioning between the extreme temperature zones and high-humidity environments found throughout Australia.

Key Features of the Simmons Pro Target 3-9x40:

• Fully Coated All-Glass Optics: Maximises light transmission to provide sharp, bright images during critical low-light hunting hours.
• Mil-Dot Reticle (Second Focal Plane): A classic, non-illuminated reticle design that allows shooters to accurately estimate range, holdover, and wind drift without cluttering the field of view.
• Exposed Target Turrets: Tactical-style windage and elevation turrets allow for fast, precise, and tool-free adjustments in the field.
• Tactile Ergonomics: Features aggressive, textured knurling on both the magnification power ring and the turret caps, ensuring positive grip and slip-free operation when wearing gloves or operating in wet weather.
• Ready-to-Mount Package: Out-of-the-box compatibility is assured with the inclusion of heavy-duty 30mm aluminum 4-hole Weaver-style mounting rings, alongside flip-up lens covers and a cleaning cloth.

Who Is This Riflescope For?

The Simmons SIM3940C is an excellent choice for recreational target shooters, pest control operators, and medium-range hunters who require a straightforward, reliable optic. The versatile 3-9x magnification range is perfectly suited for mounting on popular rimfire rifles (such as .22 LR and .17 HMR) as well as centerfire utility rifles. Because the included 30mm aluminum rings are compatible with standard Weaver and Picatinny rails, this scope mounts seamlessly onto popular Australian hunting rifles from manufacturers like Lithgow Arms, Tikka, and Ruger. Additionally, as a fully manual optical instrument with a non-illuminated reticle, it contains no electrical components, meaning it requires no battery power, SAA approvals, or RCM compliance for operation in Australia.
