Steiner provides details of the T6Xi line:

From CQB engagement, overwatch, or long-distance target operations, the Steiner riflescope T6Xi series combines advanced German engineering with made-in-America precision manufacturing to deliver premium, rugged optics that are ready to fulfill any mission, anywhere.

The T6Xi series builds on Steiner’s legendary T5Xi optics developed for advanced tactical and competitive shooting, and incorporates the latest in Steiner glass and lens coating technology for brighter and clearer views in all light and field conditions. Upgraded locking windage and elevation turrets ensure maximum confidence while in the field.

Built on rugged CNC-machined extruded aluminum housings, the T6Xi series is fog proof and waterproof down to 33 feet and is made for hard use in the most austere climates. Low-profile Never-Lost turrets featuring windage and elevation locks plus a second rotation indicator simplifies adjustments in stressful shooting scenarios. The Never-Lost system shows each mil of elevation through the indication window on the elevation turret. After the first revolution, the mil numbers on the scale change automatically, preventing the shooter from getting lost on the dial.
