Description
The Steiner M8Xi 1-8×24 is a 1-8×24 mm riflescope from Steiner. It is built for general hunting at short to medium range.
Why choose the Steiner M8Xi 1-8×24
With 1-8×24 mm optics, this scope covers general hunting at short to medium range. Because the reticle sits in the second focal plane, it stays bold and easy to see, even at low power. As a low-power variable optic, it works almost like a red dot at 1x and still gives you magnification for longer shots. It is a sensible upgrade if you want clearer glass and more dependable adjustments.
Key features
- 1-8x variable magnification. You can scan wide at 1x and zoom to 8x for careful shot placement.
- 24 mm objective lens. The compact lens keeps the optic light and low on the rifle.
- 34 mm main tube. The wide tube gives you more elevation travel for long-range shooting.
- Second focal plane reticle. It stays the same size and easy to see at every power setting.
- DMR8I reticle for clear, precise aiming.
- 3.54 in of eye relief, which helps protect your eye from recoil.
- Field of view: 4.8-34.2 m at 100 m.

How to choose a riflescope
When you compare riflescopes, start with magnification. Lower power gives a wider view and faster target pick-up. Higher power helps at long range. Next, look at the objective lens. A bigger lens gathers more light, but it also adds weight and needs taller rings. Also check the focal plane. A first focal plane reticle keeps holdovers accurate at every power, while a second focal plane reticle stays the same size.
Finally, make sure the turrets and reticle use the same unit, either MOA or MRAD. That makes corrections quick and simple. Mount the scope in quality rings, set the eye relief before you tighten the screws, and then zero it at the distance you shoot most.
