Review Summary

I knew Leupold scopes could handle the recoil of heavy 45-70 loads in my Guide Gun. The heavy duplex is fast on target and works very well in dim light also. The scope is bright, precise and has ample eye relief.

This telescope is very good for my needs. It is a pity that you produce scopes with backlight so little

I've had this scope on my Ruger No. 1, .45-70, for many years. It just cannot be beat for hunting in heavily forested areas with thick brush cover. I am getting a lever action, also in .45-70, for wild pigs. Those who have hunted wild pigs know that a quick follow-up shot (or two) is a real good idea. Hence the lever action rifle. But, regardless of which rifle you carry ... this scope will put you on target and on the mark every time!!
