Leupold VX-6HD 3-18x50mm Riflescope Illuminated FireDot Duplex

The Leupold VX-6HD 3-18x50mm delivers precision optics for long-range shooting with its 6x magnification range and advanced lens coatings. This riflescope combines Leupold's proven reliability with modern features like illuminated reticles and exceptional light transmission for dawn and dusk hunting conditions.

What Makes This Different

The VX-6HD series features Leupold's Twilight Max HD Light Management System, providing up to 92% light transmission compared to standard scopes that typically achieve 85-88%. The 30mm main tube offers 25% more internal adjustment range than traditional 1-inch tubes, while the illuminated FireDot Duplex reticle maintains subtension accuracy across the entire magnification range. This scope delivers consistent tracking with Leupold's Custom Dial System compatibility for precise long-range adjustments.

Key Features

• 6x magnification ratio (3-18x) with side focus parallax adjustment from 50 yards to infinity
• 50mm objective lens with multi-coat 4 lens system for maximum light gathering
