The VX-6HD Gen 2 2-12x42mm riflescope takes versatility to the next level. It offers an incredibly wide field of view making it easier to quickly locate and aim at a target, especially if the target is moving. It also gives you the magnification needed for mid to long-range shots. Its rugged, lightweight body is made for hunters and guides not willing to sacrifice performance or weight. Designed around our Professional-Grade Optical System, the VX-6HD Gen 2 2-12x42 offers unmatched light transmission and resolution that’s purpose-built to outperform in the most challenging lighting conditions. The Guard-ion lens coating that sheds water, dirt and fingerprinting is a stand-out feature on all Leupold hunting riflescopes that provides superior glare management for a clear image in harsh, direct light.

The wide zoom range combined with an illuminated reticle and level, integrated throw lever and a fast-focus eyepiece with flip-back lens covers make the VX-6HD Gen 2 an incredibly versatile hunting riflescope.

2-12x Magnification

This wide magnification spread allows you to dial down for fast, close-range target acquisition or zoom in for precise long-range shots, giving one scope exceptional adaptability across multiple shooting environments.

Professional-Grade Optical System with High-Definition Performance

Engineered for elite-level performance, the Professional Grade Optical System maximizes light transmission for superior brightness in low-light conditions, reduces glare in harsh direct sunlight, and delivers industry-leading resolution. Paired with Leupold High-Definition lenses, it provides outstanding clarity, vivid color fidelity, and edge-to-edge sharpness at every magnification level.

Advanced Precision Turret & Dial Technology

The Custom Dial System (CDS) allows you to order a turret precisely matched to your profile and environmental conditions. Simply range, dial, and aim dead on. The SpeedSet dial enables tool-free zeroing and dial changes, while the ZeroLock system prevents accidental adjustments and ensures reliable, repeatable returns to zero for consistent accuracy.

Enhanced Accuracy & Smart Illumination Features

The illuminated reticle creates a highly visible aiming point in low-light conditions. An integrated Electronic Reticle Level flashes when the scope is canted, promoting more precise long-range shots and simplifying mounting. Motion Sensor Technology (MST) automatically powers down the illuminated reticle after five minutes of inactivity and instantly reactivates with movement to extend battery life.

Rugged Construction with Premium Protection

Built to withstand harsh environments, this scope is waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof using advanced gas sealing technology for lifetime internal clarity. Guard-Ion hydrophobic lens coating repels water, dirt, and debris for a consistently crisp image. The integrated low-profile throw lever allows quick magnification changes, Alumina flip-back lens covers are included for added protection, and it’s backed by the Leupold Lifetime Guarantee for long-term confidence.
