With a slightly smaller objective lens than its 50mm counterpart, the VX-6HD Gen 2 3-18x44mm can do it all while packing a little less weight. Dial it down to 3x to get enough field of view when hunting in brush and timber or dial it all the way up to 18x and you've got the magnification needed for proper identification and shot placement. The ultra-rugged VX-6HD Gen 2 goes where other scopes can't. Its unique combination of features, durability and competition-grade adjustments guarantees it can handle any challenge you throw at it. It's 100% waterproof and fogproof, and like all VX-6HD Gen 2 riflescopes, two free Custom Dials featuring SpeedSet technology are available
3-18x 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, precision side focus adjusts parallax for sharper target clarity at varying distances, Alumina flip-back lens covers are included for added protection, and it’s backed by the Leupold Lifetime Guarantee for long-term confidence.
