The Leupold VX-6HD 4-24x52mm delivers precision optics for long-range shooting applications where clarity and accuracy matter most. This variable power riflescope combines advanced lens coatings with a robust 34mm main tube to maximize light transmission and tracking reliability across extended magnification ranges.
What Makes This Different
The VX-6HD series incorporates Leupold's Twilight Max HD Light Management System, providing up to 92% light transmission compared to standard coatings that typically deliver 85-88%. The 34mm tube diameter offers 20% more internal adjustment range than traditional 30mm tubes, enabling precise tracking through 60 MOA of total elevation adjustment. Guard-Ion lens coating repels water, dirt, and fingerprints more effectively than conventional hydrophobic treatments.
Key Features
- 4-24x magnification range with 52mm objective lens for versatile applications
- TMOA (Tactical Milling reticle, Minute of Angle) illuminated reticle with 11 brightness settings
- 34mm aircraft-grade aluminum tube with matte black anodized finish
- Side Focus parallax adjustment from 50 yards to infinity
- Capped windage and elevation turrets with 1/4 MOA click adjustments
- Second focal plane reticle maintains consistent subtension at all magnifications
- Compatible with standard 34mm scope rings and Picatinny rail systems
Field testing demonstrates consistent tracking performance across temperature ranges from -40°F to 140°F. The scope maintains zero retention through repeated recoil cycles on magnum calibers including .300 Win Mag and .338 Lapua. Waterproof construction withstands submersion to 1 meter for 30 minutes, while nitrogen purging prevents internal fogging during rapid temperature changes.
