Rifle Scopes Leupold 2026 - Rumors & Speculation

[125 Straight]

I’ve heard that Leupold will be releasing some interesting stuff at Shot Show but I got zero details. Anybody have any info or care to take a guess?

My guess - The toolless zero turrets they introduced on the VX line will make their way to the Mark 4 & 5 lines.

My hope- They introduce a more premium Mark series above the Mk 5 to bridge the gap a bit to the alpha-tier brands.

Sheesh- how about a lit pr2 reticle? I would take them just refining their current lineup!

How about not charging an extra $500 for illumination on everything.

I hear they’re going with them new fangled duplex reticles.

I kid, I kid. Kinda. I mean, Leupold has always been known as a late adopter; at least on the commercial optics side…

I just bought a VX6 Gen 2 because it has the 34mm tube and locking windage turret.
The specs are impressive, but It's to be used for hunting so I'm not worried about dialing the turrets like a madman, I just need them to lock and it to have good low light visibility.
I heard they addressed a lot of the issues that plagued previous models with the Gen 2, so they are listening, but I guess they're not working fast enough for some people.
