Engineered specifically for the demanding hunter, the WHISKEY6 provides reliable and intuitive adjustment in the most challenging conditions. Utilizing a redesigned zero-stop elevation dial, the locking push-button allows for quick manipulation of the exposed multi-turn turret without the need to remove a threaded cap or second-guess your zero position. SIG SAUER’s patented HDX™ glass lens system delivers an ultra-sharp image that allows the shooter to maximize shooting light and provides unmistakable color accuracy for fast acquisition and identification. Featuring a 6x zoom range and multiple reticle configurations, the WHISKEY6 is range-proven and ready for the mountain.

“I have been using the Whiskey line of riflescopes from Sig Sauer now for five-plus years. They’ve been my go-to scopes whenever I’m looking for quality to meet affordability. In today’s market, these scopes offer some of the best value for that $1,000 range, and I would put them up against scope and optic companies that charge twice that amount.

Quality internal components allow these scopes to stay on track after continuous dialing up and down. The ease of adjusting the zero stop is one of the best on the market in my opinion. Couple that with the fact that they kept it compact, with no big, bulky elevation and windage turrets to get hung up while sliding your gun in and out of gun scabbards, and you arrive at a scope that is exactly what I like.

The FFP (First Focal Plane) just adds that other option to this scope for marksmen that enjoy maintaining consistent MOA or MRAD reticle marks. The same quality and standards still apply to the flagship Whiskey series scope.”
