Hawke Optics Releases New Frontier ED X Compact Spotting Scope

When You Need a Great Spotting Scope but Also Need to Cut Weight and Space

Hawke® Optics, a global leader in precision sporting optics, proudly releases the new Frontier ED X Compact 15–35x56 Spotting Scope, a revolution in clarity, size, and value. Loaded with extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and wide-angle optics, this spotter packs big-scope performance into a travel-sized chassis.

Whether you're setting out on a backpacking adventure to explore nature or heading deep into the backcountry on a hunting expedition, you need high-quality optics to bring things into view and as much space as possible for the rest of your gear. That is why Hawke built the new Frontier ED X Compact 15–35x56 Spotting Scope to deliver the clarity and versatility you need in a space-saving, 10.4-inch-long package weighing just 35.4 ounces, so your pack stays light.

The Hawke Frontier ED X Compact 15–35x56 spotting scope is built on Hawke's System H7 optical system with premium ED glass and lanthanum ocular elements for crystal-clear views. It's exactly what you need to judge the trophy quality of game animals or bring the beauty of nature into focus. The scope also packs a phase-corrected BAK4 roof prism for added clarity and outstanding color accuracy. Wide-angle optics combine with the exceptional glass and fully multi-coated lenses for edge-to-edge clarity and a flat-field view.

The Frontier is easy to use, with a smooth barrel focus ring and a twist-up eye cup. It is fully nitrogen-purged to be waterproof and fog proof. The scope is compatible with Hawke's Smartphone Adapter for digiscoping, making it easy to capture and share what you see. It is supplied with an Arca-Swiss tripod adapter, removable rubber lens caps, and a slip-on protective cover for the entire scope. Of course, it is covered by the Hawke No-Fault Lifetime Warranty for long-term peace of mind. Learn more about the Frontier ED X Compact 15–35x56 Spotting Scope at www.hawkeoptics.com.
