VMR 4.5-27x56
Coming soon
The VMR 4.5-27×56 is the long-range flagship of the Colt VMR lineup. Engineered for precision shooters who need to reach out and make hits count at extended distance, it pairs a 4.5-27x magnification range with a 56mm objective for maximum light-gathering capability when it matters most.
The HXT-28 MRAD First Focal Plane reticle features a fine 0.06 MIL center dot and 0.2 MIL hash spacing — purpose-built for surgical shot placement at range. Fully exposed locking turrets on both elevation and windage with a true zero-stop deliver exact, repeatable adjustments you can trust through a long string of fire. Side-focus parallax from 30 yards to infinity.
Premium SCHOTT glass pushing 92% light transmission through a 34mm single-piece tube rated to .338 Lapua Magnum. At 14.17 inches and 33.7 ounces, it’s built for bolt guns, precision gas rifles, and competition rigs where distance is the objective.
ANY ENVIRONMENT. ANY OBJECTIVE. EVERY SHOT.

The largest objective in the VMR lineup maximizes light gathering through premium SCHOTT glass — delivering a bright, high-resolution image at 27x in conditions where lesser optics fall apart.
6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with 32.5 MRAD of elevation travel. Built to absorb MIL-STD recoil without shifting zero — session after session.
Dedicated side-focus parallax adjustment delivers a razor-sharp image from 30 yards to infinity — eliminating target blur across the full engagement envelope.
Both elevation and windage feature exposed, push/pull locking turrets with a true zero-stop. Dial with precision, lock your solution, and return to confirmed zero in one rotation.
Fine 0.06 MIL center dot with 0.2 MIL hash spacing across 12 MIL vertical and 10 MIL horizontal holdover coverage. Designed for surgical precision at distance — scales accurately across the full zoom range.
Comfortable eye relief for heavy-recoiling platforms. Push-button illumination with 8 brightness settings keeps the reticle visible from predawn to high noon without washing out the image.

A LONG HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE
The Colt Optics precision rifle scope lineup is built to handle everything from fast, close-range shooting to precise long-distance work. No matter the application, these scopes are designed to deliver clear glass, dependable performance, and a consistent, confidence-inspiring feel every time you get behind the rifle. Each model features a durable 34mm tube and a first focal plane reticle, so your holds and measurements stay accurate at any magnification.
Every scope in the lineup offers smooth, repeatable adjustments and reliable tracking you can trust. Higher magnification models use locking turrets with a zero stop for secure dialing at long range, while the more compact options feature capped turrets for added protection and a streamlined profile. High-quality German-engineered glass, wide fields of view, and comfortable eye relief help you find targets quickly and stay on them, even in challenging conditions.
The lineup includes a versatile 1-8x LPVO available in both MRAD and MOA for fast, all-around performance; a balanced 3-18x optic that blends mobility with extended reach; and a powerful 4.5-27x model built for serious long-range shooting. Each scope shares the same design philosophy and performance standards, making it easy to choose the right magnification and reticle without re-learning your setup.
Whether it’s mounted on a carbine, a precision gas gun, or a long-range bolt rifle, Colt Optics rifle scopes are built to hold zero, track accurately, and help shooters perform with confidence at any distance.
