From a Southern deer blind to a Western ridgeline and beyond, the new V3 line is any hunter's onramp to discovering ZEISS brightness and quality.

When the shot opportunity comes down to the final minutes of legal light, hunters need an optic they can trust without hesitation. The new ZEISS V3 riflescope line is built for exactly those moments, helping hunters see more clearly, stay confident longer, and make the most of every hunt. Featuring six purpose-built models across a wide range of hunting applications — from rimfire practice to western, big-game pursuits — the ZEISS V3 lineup combines practical versatility with dependable performance.

The best-in-class performance of the ZEISS V3 starts with the glass. ZEISS Bright™ Technology delivers a minimum of 90% light transmission to the eye, while fully multi-coated lenses preserve color fidelity and edge-to-edge clarity across every configuration in the lineup. A hydrophobic outer lens coating repels water, dust, dirt, and fingerprints, keeping performance intact when conditions deteriorate.

The ZEISS V3 lineup spans 1-inch and 30 mm main tube configurations, weighs between 12.6 and 18.7 ounces, and measures 10.7 to 13.1 inches depending on configuration, delivering a compact, lightweight footprint designed to mount cleanly on most hunting rifles. Nitrogen-purged and waterproof to 3.3 feet for one hour, it's built to handle the field, not just survive it.

Metal-on-metal turrets with positive, repeatable adjustments and a multi-turn design give hunters the kind of dialing confidence that holds up under pressure. Four reticle options cover close-timber to long-range applications, with optional red center-dot illumination available on select models.

The full ZEISS V3 lineup is backed by the ZEISS Transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty and Transferable Five-Year No-Fault Policy. Retail pricing runs from $299.99 for the rimfire configuration and up to $949.99 for centerfire models, with options built to meet hunter's needs, whatever they are.

"The ZEISS V3 is designed specifically for the North American hunter who is looking to get the most out of their hunt – to be able to see game until last legal light and stay in the hunt", said Kyle Brown, Director of Marketing and Product at ZEISS. "These new ZEISS V3 riflescopes deliver excellent optical performance that is always expected from ZEISS, allowing hunters to witness the bright and clear image they desire, and at very attractive pricing."
