After trying out the new scopes from Leupold it was a for sure thing that the VX-III was an awesome addition to the lineup. Several things had to be changed to make what was already a great scope an even better one. Some of these changes include finger adjustable turrets, an improved light transmission and an ocular lens with a focus that is way easier to use than the older ones. They also came up with a new Ballistic Aiming System reticle and a side-focus parallax adjustment. For a lot of people the Ballistic Aiming System that came on some models was helpful to change. You can also change the windage to be corrected when you’re trying to aim in crosswinds.
The new VX-III scopes from Leupold are also outfitted and made especially for people that hunt a variety of animals. For example, if you prefer to varmint hunt, you’ll like the fact that Leupold has made a reticle especially for this kind of hunting. It has also been named the Varmint hunters reticle, this grid is perfect for hunting smaller game. But if you like hunting medium to large size game, you should probably get a Boone & Crockett reticle.
There are also the Riflemans from Leupold. This kind of scope has a different main tube that makes a big difference. It has the same optical features as the Vari-X II, which they stopped making in 2001. This original scope made Leupolds name, and the Rifleman line has continued on with this tradition. All lenses are coated with magnesium fluoride. You should know that the Custom Shop options, including the reticle changes, target adjustment installation and others that you can’t get with this line of scopes.
No matter which kind of Leupold scopes interests you, you’ll know you’re purchasing a high quality scope from Leupold.
In 04 came about the Mark, all tactical scopes were considered part of the Mark 4 categories. This meant that they all had the same great features they had always had, but added a fast focus-eyepiece and Index Matched lenses. The two exceptions are the CQ/T, which has a combination of Diamond Coat for the external and Multicoat 4 for the internal lens coating, and the 3-9x40mm PR which is fully multicoated using Multicoat 4
There are a lot of scopes available in the Leupold VX line. The VX-7 was the new rifle scope for 2007 and is the best low-light scope they have. It’s a scope for serious hunters with the bigger area of magnification. The VX-L came out in 2006 and adds Index Matched and DiamondCoat lens coating. It also has edge-blackened lenses so that there is a low glare and great light transmission. The VX-III line came out in 2004 and has a low-profile, finger-adjustable adjustments and a fast-focus eyepiece. The VX-II scope includes any of the rifle scopes produced in 2003 or before. The lens coating on these scopes is different, the external lenses are coated with Multicoat 4 and the internal lenses have magnesium fluoride.
