The features they loaded into this scope are top notch. The low light performance is second to none. CDS and zero lock are the icing on the cake. Born and raised in America. Buy American.
Leupold, why buy anything else?
I've been buying Leupold for 25 years or so, used Leupold extensively in the Military over that time and can say that every product I have used has been Sailor, Marine, and Soldier proof and built to be precise before, during, and after rough use. The VX5HD is no exception. Crystal clear 30 mins before and after sun rise and set.

Under the most challenging lighting conditions, the 1-5x24 VX-5HD Riflescope from Leupold stands out with its superior optical performance. Engineered with a High-Definition optical system, this riflescope delivers unparalleled clarity, ensuring that every detail is sharp and distinct. The Twilight Max Light Management System enhances this clarity, providing exceptional low-light performance that gives hunters the critical edge during the pivotal moments of dawn and dusk when game activity peaks.
The innovative CDS-ZL2 (Custom Dial System ZeroLock 2) elevation dial is a standout feature, designed to lock securely in place, preventing any accidental adjustments. With a simple button press, shooters can engage up to two full turns of elevation for long-range precision. The intuitive design includes a visual indicator on the second revolution, ensuring you never lose your bearings when dialing in for extended distances.
Windage adjustments are equally efficient, thanks to the covered pop-up windage dial that allows for swift and precise sighting. Each VX-5HD CDS-ZL2 riflescope comes with a complimentary Custom Ballistic Dial, enhancing your shooting accuracy tailored to your specific ammunition and conditions.
The FireDot illuminated reticle is a game-changer, offering a bright, red dot-like performance that is easily adjustable with a single button for intensity control. This feature ensures rapid target acquisition in any lighting condition.
Built with 2nd Generation Argon/Krypton Waterproofing, this riflescope boasts an exclusive gas blend that significantly reduces the impact of thermal shock and gas diffusion, surpassing the effectiveness of traditional nitrogen-filled scopes.
The robust 30mm maintube not only provides exceptional strength but also allows for an extensive range of windage and elevation adjustments. With a versatile 5:1 zoom ratio, the scope offers a broad field of view at lower magnifications and detailed target identification at higher settings.
Constructed from 6061-T6 aircraft-quality aluminum, the VX-5HD is the epitome of durability and reliability. The CDS-ZL2 Zero Lock Adjustment with Revolution Indicator ensures quick and secure elevation adjustments, while the FireDot Illumination system combines optimal daylight visibility with superior light transmission for low-light scenarios.
Experience an effortless targeting experience with the generous eyebox, which allows for quick target acquisition even at higher magnifications, providing a full, clear sight picture. The Guard-Ion Rain Shedding Coating on the lenses repels water, dirt, and fingerprints, maintaining a clear view in all conditions.
Leupold's proprietary MST (Motion Sensor Technology) enhances battery life by deactivating the illumination after five minutes of inactivity and reactivating it instantly upon detecting motion. The Pop Up Rezero Windage Adjustment simplifies the zeroing process, and the Push Button Illumination offers straightforward brightness control.
Lastly, the Twilight Max Light Management System ensures that usable light reaches your eye, forming a crisp, high-contrast image, while the Twin Bias Spring Erector System provides unmatched stability, virtually eliminating backlash and stress on internal components for a riflescope built to last a lifetime.
