1. Spot-metering
Redring® has built-in intelligence, called spot metering, that reads the backlight in a diameter equivalent to more than double the ring diameter. An integrated processor momentarily adjusts the ring intensity to the prevailing light. Dark background = weaker ring. Bright background = stronger ring. The directed spot metering gives the shooter a great advantage in all types of hunting with varying lighting conditions, such as duck shooting in the sunrise. Light intensity can also be set manually.
2. The red ring
Another advantage of using the Redring® is that it also is an effective rangefinder. The size of the ring on the target equals the shot diameter/burst at 20 meters (65 feet). This gives the shooter an instant indication if the target is within shooting range or if it’s too far away for a sure shot. When the ring looks right, pull the trigger. It surely improves the hit rate and reduces the risk of injuring the game.
3. Low mount with recoil absorption
Redring® is mounted free-floating directly on to the rib of the gun. It only takes a couple of minutes to mount and the sight is ready to use. No alterations or changes to the gun are necessary. As the lightweight sight is mounted low on the shotgun rib, it will not have any noticeable effect on the balance of the gun. Redring® comes complete with recoil absorbing mounts for shotguns with a rib width ranging from 5 to 11.5 mm.
Redring® is equally suited for hunting and sport shooting. It is designed for Over/Under, and Semi-automatic shotguns with a rib width ranging from 5 to 11.5 mm.
Redring® is designed, developed and manufactured in Sweden to the highest standards without compromise. It is so well designed that once mounted on the gun, it’s ready to shoot without sight-in or calibration. With Redring® on the gun, many of the most common shooting problems have been solved. The result – safer, more enjoyable and controlled shooting.
TARGET DISTANCE INDICATOR
The ring gives the shooter perfect aim and indicates when it’s safe to shoot and when it’s not. When the target looks right in relation to the ring, that’s when it’s time to shoot. The result is greater accuracy, more fun and more reliable hunting. A sure hit!
AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
The built in energy saving “shut-off” function will automatically shut off the sight after 4 hours. The shut-off time is counted from the time the sight is turned on, or from the last time the ring intensity was manually adjusted.
COMPLETE WITH MOUNTS
Redring® comes complete with recoil absorbing mounts for over/under and semi automatic shotguns with a rib widht ranging from 5 to 11.5 mm.
PARALLAX FREE
Redring® enables the shooter to fire with both eyes open, irrespective of eye dominance. The open eyes principle improves the perceptual tendencies and helps the shooter to identify the target faster. Since Redring® is parallax free, what the shooter sees in the ring equals the target image, i.e., when the ring is right in relation to the target, the shot most certainly is a hit. The eye relief doesn’t matter.
Care Instructions
The Redring requires very little care taking. If the lens becomes dirty the Redring can be washed using running fresh water. Let it dry turned upside down. If a clean cloth is used the lens must be thoroughly rinsed before gentle cleaning with the cloth. The lens could be scratched if dirt is pulled along its surface.
