    Rifle Scopes So what happened to Leupold scopes?

    Re: So what happened to Leupold scopes? Leupold never really stopped kicking butt when it comes to sales of tactical scopes or scopes in general. You have to think of their figures when it comes to military, law enforcement, old salty dogs who don't really care about brands they never heard...

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight scopes

    Re: Lightweight scopes I would look at VX-R 2-7x and 3-9x $400-450 or Minox 3-9x at 12oz, 2-10x and 3-15x at 14oz. $300-400 They always have the Minox here for low price open box specials. Supposed to basically be cheaper and lighter Conquests - equal optics and also German with USA...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX-R reticle for 70% hunting/30% target?

    Re: Leupold VX-R reticle for 70% hunting/30% target? mikear, all of the vx-r reticles are good for it, just saying in general not to worry about having too thick of a reticle for a scope that is mainly for hunting. Batteries can crap out, especially in the cold, a bolder reticle is the back...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce help

    Re: Nightforce help Can set up a target with markers at 4MOA for Mil Dot or 2MOA for MLR - have correct distance and ease back on magnification until it subtends on the money then mark exactly where it is. Then you have a MOA reticle and matching turrets.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX-R reticle for 70% hunting/30% target?

    Re: Leupold VX-R reticle for 70% hunting/30% target? I would pick the #4 for mostly hunting but all would be good. Thick crosshair is good for hunting, if you are shooting something tiny at 250-300 yards just use the corner where the verticle and horizontal lines meet. Hard to see reticles...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX-7 discontinued, WHY?

    Re: Leupold VX-7 discontinued, WHY? They were designed to be American made competition for high dollar Euro hunting scopes (Swarovski, Kahles, Zeiss Diavari, etc.) but never really grabbed the numbers. Think they are figuring the VX-6 will grab people better and work as the new premium line...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mk4 with zero stop??

    Re: Leupold Mk4 with zero stop?? No, it is a good thing, there is no reason to go down below your zero. High number turrets and zero stops make it so everything is easier and faster under stress. I was just mentioning that they had this set up before it more recently became popular. Some...

    Rifle Scopes New Monster IOR!!??!!

    Re: New Monster IOR!!??!! The problem is the history of exciting, new, beastly IOR models being hit or miss. People are a lot more likely to be ok with the history at lower prices, but for $3,000+ who wants to chance it that customers are part of the R&D team again?
