The Kahles K318i is a compact crossover riflescope with a wide range of applications for short to long distances. Its ultra-short housing saves valuable mounting space while offering maximum versatility. Designed for long-range disciplines, the riflescope features precise illuminated reticles in the first focal plane and the unique TWIST GUARD anti-rotation system.

Optics and reticle (first focal plane)
The reticle is positioned in the first focal plane and scales proportionally with magnification. Holdover marks and subtensions remain accurate across the entire zoom range, allowing precise holding and ranging at any magnification. The wide field of view supports fast target acquisition and reliable observation at varying distances.
Ergonomics and operating concept
The controls of the Kahles K318i are consistently designed for operation from the shooting position. The parallax wheel is centrally integrated into the elevation turret and can be reached without changing grip. Depending on the version, the windage adjustment is positioned on the left or right side and is reliably protected against accidental adjustment by the TWIST GUARD.
