VX-3HD 1-5-5 Twilight (30mm) - Perfect Short Range Hunting Scope
I waited patiently for these to become available and grabbed one as soon as they were in stock. This scope replaced a Steiner PX4i 1-4 on my 450 Bushmaster deer rifle and it checks all the boxes. The Steiner was an awesome scope, but this one is clearer, brighter, lighter, and just as rugged - without a cluttered/busy reticle. I love the duplex width and the Firedot is just what I need for those last minute shots. The distances I shoot don?t require dialing the elevation turret, but the ZL w...

Leupold VX3 HD 4.5-14 Side Focus Riflescope
Great glass with side adjustment providing shooter with exceptional clarity. Power adjustment is smooth and gives enough range for hunting wood lots in the East to the wide open expanses of the West. CDS dial allows easy ranging of distance without holdover. Leupold optics have always served me very well in my hunting and shooting endeavors.
Bring your hunting and shooting experience to the next level with the VX-3HD 2.5-8x36mm Riflescope, a matte black marvel of optical technology. This high-performance riflescope, renowned for its extreme clarity and legendary performance, is an ideal companion for timber hunting and mid-range shots.
Crafted with Leupold's Elite Optical System, the VX-3HD Riflescope ensures superior light transmission from dawn to dusk, providing a bright, clear image when you need it most. This system also offers elite-level glare reduction in harsh light, and the resolution and clarity that dedicated hunters and shooters require.
Designed with user-friendly features, the VX-3HD Riflescope boasts match-grade repeatability and ergonomic controls that are easy to read and use, even with gloves on. The low-profile, one-revolution CDS ZeroLock dial ensures your settings remain secure, only moving when you want them to. Simply push the button to unlock, adjust, and then rotate back to zero to lock it in place.
The 3:1 zoom ratio, common in many scope models, offers three times more magnification at high power than at low power. This allows you to adjust your power for close encounters or dial it up for long-range shots.
The riflescope is also compatible with Leupold's Custom Dial System (CDS), allowing you to customize your turret to your exact ballistics and environmental conditions. Once your custom dial is installed, simply range the target, turn the dial to that number, and aim with precision.
Constructed with high-definition, calcium-fluoride lenses, the VX-3HD Riflescope ensures incredible clarity at all magnification levels. The lenses are also scratch-resistant, meeting extreme military standards for added protection.
The lightweight aluminum housing offers excellent durability and ruggedness without adding unnecessary weight. The lockable eyepiece allows you to lock in a focus setting that is best for your eye, while the reversible throw lever clamps onto specific power-selector rings, making quick magnification changes a breeze.
The VX-3HD Riflescope is waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, thanks to Leupold's pioneering technology. It uses advanced internal gasses and sealing methods that withstand extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and shocks, ensuring the internals of the optics stay moisture-free and crystal clear for life.
The second focal plane duplex reticle, invented by Leupold in 1962, is defined by heavy posts that stand out against cover in low light, providing quick target acquisition with thin lines at the center. This is the most popular reticle in the world, and it's included in your VX-3HD Riflescope.
Like all Leupold riflescopes, the VX-3HD 2.5-8x36mm is designed, machined, and assembled in the USA and guaranteed for life. This riflescope is not just a tool, but a game-changer, designed to help you succeed in your hunting and shooting endeavors.
