Leupold & Stevens, a renowned American optics manufacturer, has once again set a new standard in riflescope technology with the introduction of the VX-6HD Gen 2 series. Building upon the success of its predecessors, the VX-6HD Gen 2 offers hunters and shooters an unparalleled combination of clarity, durability, and innovative features designed to excel in the most demanding conditions.
Professional-Grade Optical System
At the heart of the VX-6HD Gen 2 is Leupold's Professional-Grade Optical System. This system delivers exceptional light transmission, ensuring bright and clear images even during the critical low-light periods of dawn and dusk. The advanced glare reduction technology provides a clear image in harsh, direct light, while the high-resolution lenses offer the clarity that professional guides and shooters demand.
6:1 Zoom Ratio
Versatility is a hallmark of the VX-6HD Gen 2 series, thanks to its 6:1 zoom ratio. This feature allows users to adjust magnification from low to high power seamlessly, making the scope suitable for a wide range of shooting scenarios—from close-quarters engagements to long-range shots. Whether you're stalking game in dense woods or surveying open fields, the VX-6HD Gen 2 adapts to your needs.
Guard-Ion Lens Coating
Leupold's Guard-Ion lens coating is a hydrophobic treatment that repels water, dirt, and fingerprints. This ensures that the lenses remain clear and maintenance-free, providing a crisp image regardless of environmental conditions. Whether you're caught in a downpour or navigating dusty trails, the VX-6HD Gen 2's lenses stay clean and clear.
Motion Sensor Technology (MST™)
To conserve battery life and ensure readiness, the VX-6HD Gen 2 features Motion Sensor Technology. This system automatically deactivates the illuminated reticle after five minutes of inactivity and reactivates it instantly upon detecting motion. This means your scope is always ready when you are, without unnecessary battery drain.
Electronic Reticle Level
Achieving a level reticle is crucial for accurate long-range shooting. The VX-6HD Gen 2's Electronic Reticle Level provides visual feedback when the scope is not level, promoting more precise shots and simplifying the mounting process. This feature ensures that your shots are true, even at extended distances.
SPEEDSET DIAL™
Zeroing your scope or making quick adjustments in the field has never been easier, thanks to the innovative SPEEDSET DIAL™. This tool-less system allows you to adjust zero or swap dials quickly, ensuring that you can adapt to changing conditions without missing a beat. Whether you're dialing in for a long-range shot or making quick adjustments on the fly, the SPEEDSET DIAL™ offers unparalleled convenience.
Rugged Durability
Leupold has a long-standing reputation for building optics that can withstand the harshest environments, and the VX-6HD Gen 2 is no exception. Its lightweight, rugged design is 100% waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, ensuring it can handle everything from frozen tundras to rain-soaked forests. This durability means you can trust the VX-6HD Gen 2 to perform in any situation.
