The Sightron S6 10-60x56 SFP MOA-BD Illuminated Rifle Scope represents the pinnacle of precision optics, purpose-built for serious benchrest shooters who demand uncompromising performance. Made in Japan and backed by Sightron’s Lifetime Performance Guarantee, this premium riflescope sets a new benchmark in clarity, precision, and mechanical reliability.
At the heart of the S6 lies an advanced optical system featuring two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, delivering a remarkable 55% improvement in optical resolution compared to the acclaimed SIII 10-50x60 LR series. This enhanced clarity allows shooters to see every detail of their target with unrivalled sharpness and contrast, even at extreme magnifications up to 60x.
The newly designed MOA-BD reticle is specifically engineered for benchrest shooting. Featuring a floating centre dot and intuitive bracket-dot design, it enables precise target alignment and effortless shot placement. Housed in the second focal plane with 11 levels of illumination, the reticle remains crisp and visible under any lighting conditions while maintaining a clean, uncluttered sight picture.
Sightron’s innovative Parallax Cam System provides smooth and precise focus adjustment across 270 degrees of rotation, with full correction from 9 yards to infinity, ensuring your target is always perfectly in focus. Meanwhile, the Zact-7 Revcoat Plus multi-coating technology enhances light transmission and minimises glare, chromatic aberration, and colour fringing, ensuring a bright, high-contrast image even in challenging light.
For mechanical precision, the S6 utilises Sightron’s exclusive ExacTrack erector tube system, guaranteeing consistent and repeatable 1/8 MOA adjustments throughout the full 55 MOA elevation and 40 MOA windage range. This ensures exact tracking and zero retention, no matter where you are within the scope’s adjustment range.
Built from premium-grade aluminium with a robust 34mm main tube, the S6 is designed to withstand anything from big-bore airguns to .50 BMG rifles. It is shock-rated to 1,000G, waterproof to IPX7 standards, and nitrogen-purged to eliminate internal fogging, providing reliability in the harshest shooting environments.
Every Sightron S6 10-60x56 ED BR comes complete with a sunshade, flip-up lens covers, lens cloth, and Allen wrenches, ready to perform straight out of the box.

What makes the S6 different from the SIII 10-50x60 model?
The S6 10-60x56 features a completely redesigned optical system that uses two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, providing up to 55% improved optical resolution over the SIII. It also offers enhanced light transmission, a new parallax cam system, and a benchrest-specific MOA-BD reticle for superior precision.
Is this scope suitable for long-range competition shooting?
Yes. With a magnification range of 10–60x, 1/8 MOA click values, and 55 MOA elevation adjustment, the S6 is purpose-built for long-range and benchrest competition, delivering precise control and ultra-fine aiming capability.
What is the MOA-BD reticle and how does it work?
The MOA-BD (Bracket Dot) reticle is designed specifically for benchrest shooters. It allows you to bracket your target using magnification, making it easier to centre precisely. The floating centre dot provides an uncluttered aim point for fine-tuned shot placement even at 60x magnification.
Is the reticle on the first or second focal plane?
The S6 uses a Second Focal Plane (SFP) reticle, meaning the reticle size stays constant as you zoom in or out. This allows for fine aiming at any magnification level without the reticle lines becoming too thick.
Does the scope have an illuminated reticle?
Yes. The reticle is illuminated with 11 intensity levels, allowing shooters to optimise visibility in both bright daylight and low-light conditions.
How close can the parallax be adjusted?
The Parallax Cam System offers precise adjustment from as close as 9 yards to infinity, ideal for both short- and long-range shooting.
Is the scope durable enough for high-recoil rifles?
Absolutely. The S6 is shock-rated to 1,000G and tested to endure recoil from heavy calibres up to .50 BMG, ensuring reliability on even the most powerful rifles.
Is it waterproof and fogproof?
Yes. The S6 meets IPX7 waterproof standards and is nitrogen-purged to prevent internal fogging. It performs reliably in rain, humidity, and extreme temperature changes.
What type of turrets does it have?
It features tactical-style turrets with a zero-stop function for easy return to zero and a protective cover on the windage turret to prevent accidental adjustment.
Does it include a sunshade or lens covers?
Yes. The scope comes complete with a sunshade, flip-up front and rear lens covers, lens cloth, and Allen wrenches—everything needed to get started straight out of the box.
How heavy is the scope and will it affect rifle balance?
At 33.6 ounces (952g), the S6 is relatively lightweight for a 60x scope, maintaining excellent balance on most precision rifles while ensuring stability for consistent benchrest performance.
What is the warranty coverage?
The S6 is covered by Sightron’s Limited International Lifetime Warranty.
