Youngsville, NC -– SIGHTRON, one of the world’s most innovative optical observation and aiming device companies, is proud to announce they have won the On Target Editor’s Choice Award for the SIGHTRON S1 1.75-5x32mm riflescope. According to award organizers, product nominations were based on innovation, technical merit, performance and value for the dollar. Built on the legacy of the original SI series, first introduced in 2002, the new S1 series is an extension of all of SIGHTRON’s expertise over the last 20 years being applied for the next generation of hunters and target sport enthusiasts.

On Target Editor’s Choice Awards are reserved for the “best of the best” new products - those which demonstrate outstanding technical achievement and/or represent an extraordinary value for the price. Among the current crop of close-range hunting optics, the SIGHTRON S1 1.75-5x32mm raised the bar the highest within this category, earning it the 2022 On Target Editor’s Choice Award.

“We are honored to receive this award from On Target magazine,” said Mack Matsumoto, President of SIGHTRON. “Our engineers worked hard to improve the precision, function, and performance of the already popular S1 one inch riflescope line. The S1 line is an excellent choice for the serious or recreational hunter and sport shooter.”

SIGHTRON’s designers and engineers focused on reducing weight, improving optical design, light transmission, eye relief, and more generous sight pictures. They have accomplished all of this without resorting to exotic materials and manufacturing processes that inevitably increase prices. Staying true to industry standard zoom ranges, the team used modern optical technologies, material improvements, and looked for those “little tweaks” that make a big difference. The result is a seamless transition from the original SI or other brands while benefiting from the latest in optical technology.

Each S1 riflescope uses a one-inch lightweight aircraft aluminum tube that is O-ring sealed, air-purged, then filled with nitrogen gas for a waterproof and fog proof performance that will handle anything mother nature throws its way. S1 riflescopes have SIGHTRON’s Lifetime Performance Guarantee that is backed by a team of skilled technicians. If you ever have an issue, they will get your scope working as it should or will replace it, no charge.
