Purchased this scope for my son's graduation present. Put it on a Browning X bolt 2. The fit was great, and it looks great too! Looking forward to our Hawaii hunt!

One of the most clear, precise, well-built scopes I've ever seen in my life. My only regret is I do not have enough money to buy two of them!

best scope at that price point

Great rifle scope. The fire dot makes a great difference in low light when you can see the deer, but the center of the reticle is difficult to clearly see, especially with older eyes.

Great customer service and a great scope just what my Ruger Patrol needed, 300 yards no problem crystal clear glass .

Great scope for the money. Have several of the VX-3HD. For the price it's hard to beat.

It's everything that's it's advertised to be; clear optics, compact, lightweight. Love it on my Ruger No. 1
Bradley E.

Bought this to put on my JM Marlin 336. The scope works great, crystal clear picture, quick acquisition, easy to sight in. I'm able to bullseye a sight in target at 100 yards and can easily shoot a 3 inch grouping at that distance. Paired it with the QR mount and rings and the Alumina flip covers. Would definitely buy again, but if you're looking to shoot past 100 yards you will probably want something with more magnification, but that's asking a lot from a 30-30.

great clarity

I was have two VX-5HD scopes on rifles and when it was time to fit a recent purchase of a varmint rifle I again want a scope that was exceptionally clear and of quality. The VX-3HD did not disappoint. The VX-3HD is just as good of quality both in glass and build as the VX-5 HD's. Then again, it is a Leupold and it doesn't get much better than that.
