ZeroTech Optics USA of Nashville introduced the Thrive X 3-12x44 and 4-16x50 hunting riflescopes, with list prices starting at $329.

Both are second focal plane scopes, meaning the reticle stays the same apparent size as you change magnification. Each comes in five nonilluminated reticles. Zeroplex and Mildot are wire reticles. G4, PHR 3 and PHR 4 are glass-etched. PHR 3 gives simplified holdover marks, and PHR 4 uses a floating center dot and cross with an open upper field. Subtensions are calibrated at 12x on the 3-12x44 and at 16x on the 4-16x50.

On the maker’s site, the 3-12x44 Zeroplex and Mildot list at $329 and the G4, PHR 3 and PHR 4 at $429. The 4-16x50 Zeroplex lists at $399, and the PHR 4 lists at $499 on its product page. Current prices there are $279, $379, $329 and $419 for those same models. ZeroTech’s earlier Thrive 4-16x50 Zeroplex lists at $429 and shows as sold out.

The Mildot version has 0.1 MRAD clicks, a milliradian-based unit, and 17.5 MRAD of internal adjustment in each axis. The other four reticles have 0.25 MOA clicks, about 0.26 inches at 100 yards, and 60 MOA of elevation and windage travel.

G4, PHR 3 and PHR 4 models include an Adjustable BDC Turret, a bullet-drop elevation dial with five individually lockable markers. You set each marker to a distance confirmed with your own rifle and load, and the 0.25 MOA scale stays readable beneath. The 4-16x50 Zeroplex can take the turret as a separate purchase.
