Overview
The Steiner H6Xi is a 2-12x42 hunting riflescope built on a 30mm tube with a first focal plane MHR-MOA reticle, machined in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum.
Because it's first focal plane, the reticle's holdover marks scale with magnification, so ranging and windage references stay accurate whether you're at 2x or 12x. The Modern Hunter Reticle pairs duplex crosshairs for fast low-power aiming with illuminated marks for wind and drop at higher zoom.
- 2-12x42 first focal plane riflescope
- 30mm tube milled from 6061-T6 aluminum
- Modern Hunter Reticle with illuminated wind and drop marks
- Waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof construction
Who it's for
Suits hunters who want first focal plane accuracy across the full zoom range in a compact 2-12x scope. Less suited to shooters who prefer a simpler duplex-only reticle without holdover marks.
Pros and cons
- First focal plane reticle stays accurate at any magnification
- Modern Hunter Reticle blends fast duplex aim with illumination
- Machined in the USA from aerospace-grade aluminum
- Only one review so far to confirm durability
Performance notes
The first focal plane design keeps reticle subtensions correct at every zoom level between 2x and 12x, so you don't have to dial to a specific magnification to trust a holdover. The 30mm tube and 6061-T6 aluminum construction are built to be waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof for field use.
