SIG SAUER just announced a new tacitcal riflescope, the TANGO-DMR 5-30×56. It’s available in your choice of either MOA or MRAD DEV-L Christmas tree reticles. While not inexpensive, an MSRP of $1,499 for a first focal plane scope with these specs and features seems downright reasonable. Here’s their press release . . .

Introducing the TANGO-DMR, a high-performance tactical riflescope designed to deliver unrivaled accuracy and clarity in any shooting scenario. Built around SIG SAUER’S advanced optical prescriptions, the TANGO-DMR comes in a versatile 3-18x44mm and the powerful 5-30x56mm. Both featuring a new multi-lock zero stop elevation dial.

Equipped with new first focal plane reticle configurations, the TANGO-DMR offers exceptional clarity and precision at any distance. The 34mm maintube provides generous elevation travel, manipulated by the multi-lock zero stop elevation dial. The intuitive adjustment settings make it easier than ever to dial your shots with pinpoint accuracy.

In addition, the TANGO-DMR includes a military-inspired locking illumination control, allowing users to quickly adjust and lock reticle brightness settings. SIG SAUER’S new multi-lock zero stop elevation dial locks at a user-configurable zero position, as well as the upper and lower limits of travel. This unique and patented feature provides users with a tactile zero position indicator that is also impervious to accidental adjustments.

  1. I’ve been very impressed with the cost to quality of the Sig optics over the last few years. Dibs on the review.

    • By the time the budget gets around to PRS or any longer distance rifle my decade+ old Leupold from the military purchase plan will be archaic (almost there already).

    • I didn’t think I was a Sig fan either. This summer I realized that I have been carrying a P320 on my hip for a couple years now with a Sig Red Dot mounted. I’ve hunted three different countries with what has become my go-to rifle, the Sig Cross, with 2 different Sig scopes on top of it and using Sig binoculars.
      I guess I’ve changed my opinion.

  2. Seems reasonable, even if the name is gimmicky as fuck.

    Slap “tactical” on anything and it sells better. Add that to “DMR” because of the interwebz gunninjas (and their recent infatuation with the term “DMR”) and it probably sells like there’s no tomorrow.

    OTOH, if that name moves units to people who are stupid but that’s getting everyone else a lower price point, it’s a species of W.

    • DMR recent? Been hearing that since the zombie product lines at least. But more importantly yes it does look like capabilities are starting to catch up with hype (and price). Go mall ninja go

      • “DMR”, in my observation, comes and goes in popularity with various flavors based on whatever the, well I don’t really have a good name for it, [portion] of the gun community is hot on in terms of the GunTubers and blogs. The items don’t much change but the popularity of the term does.

        There was a while there where everyone beat CQB-SBRs to death, followed by a PDW craze, then Recce rifles and then a whole bunch of different set-ups that loads of people pushed which some called SPRs (Special Purpose Rifles). NODs were hot, then LVPOs then NODs again.

        IRL it’s the whatever the hot-shit-if-you-don’t-buy-it-today-you’re-definitely-dead-by-next-week item is that everyone’s supposed to run out and buy like it’s the latest Taylor Swift album.

        I dunno if there’s a behind the scenes decision to push something like that, JournoList style, just what’s new on the market comes in tranches or if it’s organic. I kinda stopped paying attention after a while. It seems a lot like triggers IMHO. For some time no one really talks triggers then there’s a few months where it’s OMG triggers or you die! and then it goes off to something else like dots or compensators or mag extenders and then back to triggers.

        It could just be shiny thing fishing lure syndrome.

        I simply note that the names of some products seem to follow those trends whether the product really falls into the category or not. Let’s be real, 5-30x56mm is *cough* a bit big *cough* for a “DMR”.

        • I guess behold the power of marketing. I just remembered DMR being a M16 or some flavor of AR10 with an ACOG so that should date the last time I paid much attention if the zombie blood doesn’t. As to hypebeast marketing well online shills gotta shill.

        • The 3-18 x44 is almost overkill for my area (slowly finding some options for 500m+ ranges) but does look like a good upgrade option for my Mark 4 ert 4.5-14 x50 (different kind of overkill)

        • “Neither of these scopes fit the traditional DMR use case, but their reticles do.”

          100% true.

          That doesn’t make me a fan of the christmas tree style reticle though.

  3. Every sig optic I’ve owned has broken and had to go back on warranty. I’ve never attended a class at Sig Academy where at least one of their optics didn’t break.

    $1500 for a FFP scope?

    Fools and their money . . . .

    • Not trying to be an asshole but what scope with same or close enough capabilities along with the price range would you recommend?

      • Are you married to the christmas tree style reticle and does it have to be US made?

        If your answers are “No” and “No”, the Vortex Viper HST (6-24×50, 2nd focal plane) in a mil reticle is a decent scope. MSRP’s $950, $700-$750 street.
