Getting a positive target ID past 150 yards with a 1x red dot means squinting, guessing, or backing off the trigger. The Alpen Nevada LT 3x24 is a compact prism scope that adds fixed 3x magnification in a red-dot form factor — a 288-gram, 76 mm-long unit that drops onto the same rifle rail slot a full-size optic would claim, without the weight or the eye-relief discipline of a variable scope.

Key Features

• Etched 3 MOA illuminated dot — remains visible with the illumination off, so a dead battery doesn't kill the reticle
• Fixed 3x magnification with a 24 mm objective and a 128 m field of view at 1000 m
• 14 illumination levels — 10 daytime plus 4 night-vision compatible
• Solar + CR2032 hybrid power — the top-mounted solar panel carries the load in good light; battery handles indoor, dawn, dusk, and NVG use
• 0.1 MRAD / 1 cm-at-100 m clicks with a 290-click adjustment range — fine enough for precision zero on .223 and .308 rifles
• DynamicDot motion wake — 5-minute standby, instant on when touched, 24-hour hard-off safeguard
• Adjustable eyepiece diopter for shooter-specific reticle focus
• 6061 aluminium housing — waterproof to 1 m / 30 min, shock-resistant, rated −30 °C to 50 °C
• 2.7-inch minimum eye relief — enough clearance for a .308 without slap

Ideal For

• Hunters working brush and open-field transitions where 1x gets outpaced past 100 m but a full variable scope is overkill
• Tactical and home-defense builds that want positive target ID at 100–200 m without the weight of a 1–6× LPVO
• AR-15 and AR-10 platform shooters needing a single optic that handles .223 Remington and .308 Winchester zeros with fine MRAD adjustment
