Discovery Optics LHT 4.5-18×42

The LHT 4.5-18×42 is the newest model of their LHT 3-12×42 scope. This scope has the lightweight, slim profile of a traditional 3-9x hunting scope, with an cross-over tactical features like a FFP reticle and exposed locking turrets.

This LHT 4.5-18×42 is practically identical to the 3-12×42, save for 1.5″ longer tube section forward of the turrets. Its glass performed like a budget optic. It has noticeable distortion and softening on the outer edges with some chromatic aberration. But its higher top end of 18x provided acceptable resolution of at the center of its image to identify features on my reference targets at 100 yrds.

What makes both LHT scopes stand out, is its value proposition. Both LHT’s have a street price under $150, making them a better value than even Walmart grade 3-9x scopes. Its modest size and above-average performance make this an ideal standard scope for my 10/22 takedown.
