Leupold 4.5-14x50 VX-L Riflescope

Leupold keeps their successful tradition of delivering state of the art sport optics alive with their persistent attention to detail, precision and quality. This American optics company, located in Portland, Oregon, pioneered the process of nitrogen purging to waterproof riflescopes in 1947. Since then and to this day, Leupold continues to develop new technologies, and use advanced materials to push the envelope to produce some of the world's finest sport optics.

The 4.5-14x50 VX-L Riflescope sports an extremely efficient objective lens that delivers outstanding twilight performance. To further enhance its brilliant sight picture, the optical design of this scope features the Index Matched Lens System; a science that incorporates carefully matched lens elements and coatings to ensure maximum light transmission when light is at a premium.

For accurate long-range shot placement, this scope's remarkable power-range of 4.5-14x facilitates responsible target acquisition upon distant targets a reality. You may find it necessary to use a bipod or a sandbag to stabilize your firearm for enhanced accuracy.

Like all Leupold riflescopes, this premium optic is absolutely water and fogproof; second generation purging with argon and krypton gases ensure clarity in the face of extreme temperature dynamics. The confidence from knowing you'll be on target regardless of the weather or climate is priceless when Mother Nature throws a curveball into your game plan. For the continuing hunter who's looking to up their game, this scope's for you.

To use a riflescope with your firearm, you'll need a mounting base and mounting rings in addition to the scope itself. Bases attach to your firearm and rings attach to your scope. By affixing the scope-mounted rings to the rifle-mounted base, you create a reliable, accurate, and secure sighting system. Proper spacing of the rings, as well as the ring height should be considered to ensure a proper line of sight can be established. This will maximize the value of your investment, and enhance your shooting experience. It should be noted that in many mounting applications, a professional gunsmith's skills will be needed for proper installation.
