Trijicon Tenmile HX Scopes

Trijicon Tenmile HX Scopes

Trijicon Tenmile HX scopes offer distinct choices in magnification, reticle layout, and focal plane. The 3-18×44 and 5-25×50 FFP configurations pair selectable red or green illumination with an exposed elevation adjuster and a zero stop. The 6-24×50 SFP models use low capped adjusters and a choice of a red or green PowerDot. All four configurations have MOA-based reticles, 30 mm tubes, and satin-black finishes.

Compare Magnification and Reticle Layouts

3-18×44 FFP: MOA Precision Tree

The 3-18×44 model, TMHX1844-C-3000001, combines the lowest starting magnification in this group with a 44 mm objective and a weight of 24.4 oz. Its MOA Precision Tree reticle has graduated rows below the center crosshair. The first-focal-plane design keeps the reticle scale consistent as magnification changes, while red or green LED illumination provides a choice of color.

5-25×50 FFP: MOA Ranging Crosshair

Model TMHX2550-C-3000020 offers a 50 mm objective, a 25x upper magnification, and a first-focal-plane PowerDot MOA Ranging Crosshair reticle. The center dot and graduated crosshair provide a simpler pattern than the Precision Tree. This red/green model weighs 28.9 oz. and has an exposed elevation adjuster with a zero stop and capped windage. Its FFP design distinguishes it from the separate 5-25×50 SFP version in the wider Tenmile HX family.

6-24×50 SFP: Red or Green PowerDot

The 6-24×50 models share a 50 mm objective, a weight of 24.9 oz., and low capped elevation and windage adjusters. TMHX2450-C-3000003 has a red PowerDot; TMHX2450-C-3000004 has a green PowerDot. Both use a second-focal-plane MOA Ranging reticle with a constant apparent size. These are separate color variants, not scopes that switch between red and green.

Optics, Controls, and Included Accessories

Fully multi-coated, anti-reflective lenses and nitrogen-filled aluminum housings are common to these configurations. Side parallax controls and repositionable magnification levers complement the different turret styles. Every model uses one CR2032 battery and 1/4-MOA adjustment increments, but the focal plane, reticle, illumination options, and weight remain important model-specific differences.

Each of these models includes a sunshade, Tenebraex flip caps, a Scopecoat cover, and a battery. Rings and a mount are not included. For other magnification ranges and reticle choices, explore the broader Trijicon Rifle Scopes collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are all Tenmile HX scopes first focal plane?

No. TMHX1844-C-3000001 and TMHX2550-C-3000020 are first-focal-plane scopes. The red and green 6-24×50 models, TMHX2450-C-3000003 and TMHX2450-C-3000004, are second-focal-plane scopes. The full model number matters because magnification alone does not identify the focal plane across the wider family.

What changes between FFP and SFP reticles?

An FFP reticle changes apparent size with magnification, while its angular scale remains consistent. An SFP reticle stays the same apparent size; its marked scale corresponds to a specified magnification. For these 6-24×50 SFP models, Trijicon specifies the reticle dimensions at 24x.

Which models offer both red and green illumination?

The 3-18×44 FFP model TMHX1844-C-3000001 and 5-25×50 FFP model TMHX2550-C-3000020 offer selectable red or green illumination. The 6-24×50 SFP model TMHX2450-C-3000003 is red only, and TMHX2450-C-3000004 is green only.

Do all of these scopes have a zero stop?

No. The 3-18×44 and 5-25×50 FFP configurations have an exposed elevation adjuster with a zero stop. The two 6-24×50 SFP variants use low capped elevation and windage adjusters instead.

Are rings, a mount, and lens covers included?

Rings and a mount are not included. These scopes have 30 mm tubes. Trijicon includes Tenebraex flip caps, a Scopecoat cover, and a sunshade with each of the four models, along with a battery and the model-specific small accessories.

Is the illumination battery powered?

Yes. Each of these Tenmile HX models uses LED illumination powered by one CR2032 battery. The brightness control has off positions between settings. The available illumination colors depend on the exact model.
