DESIGNED FOR DYNAMIC LONG RANGE PRECISION RIFLE COMPETITIONS

The Rival, the product that launched us into the stratosphere amongst dynamic long range sport shooters. It was our first product to hit the market and is the centerpiece of our ethos “PURPOSE-BUILT OPTICS”!

The Rival represents the perfect balance of features only available in the Rival 4-32×56 riflescope, catering specifically to the demands of competitive precision rifle shooters. Engineered by competitive shooters who demand the utmost precision and accuracy, it encompasses all the essential features necessary for success in dynamic long-range sports. A standout feature of this scope is its advanced CLR™ reticle system, engineered with a series of holdover points for swift and precise windage and elevation adjustments.

Complementing its reticle, the Rival showcases our proprietary HTX™ 7-Layer lens coating technology, delivering optimal light transmission, durability, and glare reduction. This ensures a consistently bright and clear image, even under challenging low-light conditions. Utilizing top-tier Extra Low Dispersion (ED) Japanese glass—the same glass that is used in the James Webb Telescope—the high density glass minimizes chromatic aberration, guaranteeing the sharpest image achievable.

Crafted to endure heavy recoil and rugged environments, the Rival is constructed from aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum and is argon-purged and sealed for waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof performance. Tested under recoil and field conditions at various International Sniper Competitions and deployments with calibers up to 50BMG, its resilience is beyond doubt. Offering a broad magnification range from 4-32X, it caters perfectly to diverse competitive shooting scenarios and disciplines. 

The Zero-Stop elevation turret facilitates swift and precise adjustments, while the ALL NEW 10 MIL per turn turret is tailored for centerfire PRS and NRL Hunter rifles. The parallax system allows for fine-tuned adjustment from 15 yards to Infinity, providing exceptional depth of field and unparalleled versatility.

For competitive shooters, the Rival riflescope stands as the ultimate choice for precision and accuracy. Its advanced reticle system, fully multi-coated lenses, rugged construction, versatile magnification options, and zero-stop elevation turret ensure consistent high performance, elevating your scores to new heights.

Above all, reliability is paramount. With the Rival, you can trust that it will hold true, track accurately, and unfailingly return to zero with every turret adjustment—GUARANTEED, every time!

OUR SECRET SAUCE, THE CLR RETICLE

CLR = COMPETITION LONG RANGE

When it came time to design the most important aspect of this riflescope we knew that we had to get it right.

We turned to some of the most experienced shooters in Canada to ask them one simple question:

“If you were designing a long range reticle from scratch, what would you want to see, and more importantly what do you NOT want to see?”

The answers were, unsurprisingly, very honest and incredibly consistent. We took that feedback and designed a reticle that:

  1. Is clean and unobstructed so you can see your target and watch your trace and splash

  2. Makes it easy to transition between targets quickly, and keep it flexible for the different shooting situations that you might find yourself in

  3. Provides ranging marks for those situations when you can’t or aren’t allowed to use electronics.

The incredible input from these experienced shooters, along with our internal team’s exhaustive research and development has resulted in the Apex Competition Long Range™ (CLR) Reticle, exclusively available in our flagship Rival precision riflescope.

DESIGNED BY PROFESSIONALS

THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED, EXPERTLY BUILT

 

We start off with a solid block of 6061-T6 Aircraft Grade Aluminum billet and mill it down to a perfectly concentric 34mm tube.

We then soak it in a proprietary solution so that it exceeds MilSpec Type III Hardness and Abrasion Resistance standards. That’s how it gets that signature matte-black finish. 

Our erector system is built with stainless steel components for a positive and distinctive “click”, guaranteeing repeatability and durability for the life of the product. No matter what the M.D. or the elements throw your way, you’ll be confident your riflescope will be up to the task without skipping a beat or getting off-zero.

The optical components are made using the highest quality Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) Japanese glass, which are ground down and polished with state-of-the-art equipment. The optical system uses a set of finely tuned APO (apochromatic) lenses, and when combined with the Prime ED glass provides an unmatched clarity of image, depth of field, and field of view. Every lens is meticulously inspected by our production engineers before it goes into one of our scopes.

Finally, the entire system is inspected once-again, then assembled by hand in a Certified Clean Environment. The final step of the assembly is dry-Argon purging and sealing, ensuring that the entire optical system is shockproof, fogproof, and IP67-rated dustproof and waterproof.

    Awesome reticle superb scope

    Couldn’t be happier with my Rival packaging and accessories, fit and finish, glass and turrets it’s everything you want for a PRS or long range scope. The reticle is the cherry on top, just the right amount of information and nothing extraneous; you can tell they built this thing to be used!

    Great scope

    Glass quality is excellent, reticle is the best I have used. My eyes go directly to the right mark for windage. Turrets are precise and repeatable. Overall, a great scope for the price.

    Rivals the best of them

    I’ve been very impressed with the Rival- the reticle has several reference points without being too busy, adjustments are quick and easy, and the turret revolution indicator is an excellent touch! The glass is clear and crisp, this is a great scope that rivals others in higher cost brackets.

    I love my Rival! I upgraded to the Apex this year, and it has been a game changer for me in competition. The glass clarity makes it easy for even new shooters to spot misses. I really like the open top stadia for this. The other unique thing that sets it apart for me is, the magnification zoom is reversed from most scopes, so I haven’t skinned my knuckle yet on the throw lever at max magnification. The machining tolerance, fit and finish is beautiful. Magnification and parallax dial are smooth and easy to manipulate. The windage and elevation dials feel and sound great, very prominent “clicks” that always return to zero. Highly recommend this scope of your looking to up your game. Support your local scope manufacturer! ??

    Best bang for your buck!

    I won a 50% discounted Apex Rival from the Cypress shoot last year which allowed me to convert from MOA to MIL for PRS shooting. I am glad I made the switch. Other than fewer clicks the feature rich Rival has everything you’d want and more. The turrets are the perfect firmness and have a great sound that makes adjustments a breeze even when not looking. I love the reticle as it makes adjustments on the fly easy to do. Hats off to the Apex team for designing and providing such a great product at an affordable price.

    Apex Rival 4x32x56

    This scope performs outstanding. I was hitting 10 inch targets at 1000 yards consistently. And did hold overs from 400-1000 yards and it was on the money.

    Excellent Scope

    We have been running the Rival in team and individual competitions for several months now. Rain, dust, heat…the Rival soaked it all up. The turrets have a fantastic positive click to them, and are a nice size, without being overly tall. The glass is excellent and the color rendition superb. The CLR reticle is fast and effective without being difficult to see splash through. Overall an excellent scope!

    I am absolutely in love with this scope!

    I am absolutely in love with this scope, whoever designed it did an amazing job. If I were to design the perfect scope I don’t think I would change a thing.First off, the tracking is perfect. To me that is the most important thing, it doesn’t matter how good the glass is, if your scope doesn’t track it doesn’t matter how well you can see the target. Your scope along with the tracking has the glass clarity to back it up.We have been running precision rifle classes for almost 10 years, I’ve looked through thousands of scopes. I am amazed at the clarity, brightness and the fact that there was ZERO color fringing on the edges even at full power. I own some high dollar scopes, and there is always a little chromatic aberration, even on the best German glass scopes I own. The texture and feel of all the turrets is second to none.The 15 Mils elevation per rotation is huge! The fact that you can see so much range of elevation in your line of sight when behind the rifle makes it perfect for PRS. The feel of the dial is precise, with no play in the turret. The reticle with its .5 mil wind holds and christmas tree design is what I want for not only PRS, but for every type of shooting I do.Can not say enough good things about the scope.

    Amazing Scope

    The instructions may be the easiest I’ve ever seen from a scope manufacturer. I’ve done a box test and it tracks true and square. The reticle is easy to use and apply at the range and in the field. Adjustments are positive and repeatable. Now I just need to need to figure out how to get another one sooner than later.

    Perfect Form and Function

    In my opinion, this scope is perfect in form and function; the magnification range is ideal for close-in and low light conditions at lower power, while the upper magnification works well for target ID and longer range. The large objective lenses is good for light gathering and the 34mm tube allows plenty of elevation/windage adjustment. I like the uncluttered christmas tree reticle. Plus, getting this scope at the pre-order price makes it a super value.

    Knocked it out of the park!

    Well I might be the only person here with almost no experience with the Apex Rival prior to this weekend but mine showed up on Saturday. Between yesterday and today I have 750 rounds on it now. To say I love the reticle would be an understatement. The parallax is so crisp, efficient and fast, might just be my favourite I’ve ever used. The turrets feel awesome, firm and crisp but not too hard to turn, zero stop is simple and effective, and the glass is great!! Knocked it out of the park. Can’t wait to run it this upcoming weekend’s Insite Arms Steel Challenge match!
