Helpful Positive Review Great Scope by NortheastFreak, March 16, 2023
This is a great little scope. I hunt elk, deer, pronghorn and bear in WY. This scope on a 30-06 is all I need for said big game hunting. The glass is on/above par for its weight class and the crosshairs are thin and fine. It’s hard to find a scope wi...

Helpful Positive Review Excellent scope by TattooedAssassin, Verified Owner, December 31, 2022
Very good scope, super clear picture. The CDS also makes long distance shooting a breeze. The controls all work very well and adjustment is easy. One minor quirk is the CDS dial: make sure to find the manual on how to operate it and adjust it, as the...

Helpful Positive Review Leupold VX-3HD 4.5-14 x 40mm by Bill, November 24, 2021
I highly recommend this scope. I have three of them and have used them for years on my major hunting rifles. I use them in Africa, Alaska and western states. They are very versatile and the size is not too big to make them unwieldy. Highly recommend...

Product Info for Leupold VX-3HD 4.5-14x40mm Rifle Scope, 1in Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

Gear up with this 4.5-14x40 hunting scope from Leupold. These Rifle Scopes are built for hunters who want more time in the field, and the superior optical system with DiamondCoat 2 ion-assisted lens coatings provide higher light transmission for brighter views even in darker conditions. The VX-3 HD 4.5-14x40mm Rifle Scope has blackened lens edges that further enhance the brightness and contrast by reducing light diffusion, and the Xtended Twilight lens system ensures you can accurately acquire prey in low-light environments.image

Built with a lightweight, rugged aluminum housing, this hunting optic is ready for any adventure, and the waterproof and fogproof performance can cut through harsh weather conditions to bring you clear views, rain or shine. Get generous eye relief, unmatched precision, and a gorgeous sight picture by equipping your rifle with this waterproof hunting Rifle Scope.

Every CDS model scope comes with a standard MOA or MIL dial right out of the box, so it's not a custom dial yet. To get yours, enter your ballistic information that can usually be found on your ammo box or the manufacturer's website and some of the environmental conditions where you'll be shooting the most, and we will laser-etch a new elevation dial to match. Once you receive the new dial in the mail, swap out the standard MOA or MIL dial, and you're good to go. The Custom Dial System® (CDS) ensures your scope is now perfectly tuned to the ballistics of your rifle.

Fully understanding your ballistics can be intimidating. That's why the Leupold Custom Dial System® (CDS) laser-etches your scope's elevation dial to match your load, velocity, and conditions. All you do is range your target, turn the dial to that number, and aim dead on. No more holdovers, bullet drop reticles, or ballistic calculators. Just quick, accurate shots every time.

Features of Leupold VX-3HD 4.5-14x40mm Rifle Scope, 1" Tube, Second Focal Plane - SFP

  • DiamondCoat 2: Exterior lens surfaces are treated with DiamondCoat 2, an ion-assist lens coating, for higher light transmission and the greatest level of abrasion resistance we've ever offered. DiamondCoat 2 has the additional advantage of assisting in light transmission, for greater brightness, clarity and contrast, and will prove its worth in the wildest places on earth.
  • 2nd Generation Argon/Krypton Waterproofing: Features our exclusive, proprietary Argon/Krypton gas blend, which nearly eliminates the effects of thermal shock, and reduces the diffusion of gases sealed inside your scope even more than our proven nitrogen technology already does.
  • Generous Eyebox: Get on target faster so you can take the shot of a lifetime. Even at higher powers, the longer eye relief and generous eyebox provides incredible head position latitude, edge-to-edge brightness, and a full clear sight picture that fills the eyepiece completely.
  • Blackened Lens Edges: Blackened lens edges reduce light diffusion, so more usable light reaches the shooter's eye. This results in a brighter image with increased contrast.
  • Twin Bias Spring Erector System: The twin bias spring exerts up to 30 percent more holding force on the erector, virtually eliminating erector system backlash and stress on the vital internal workings of the scope, for longer life.
  • 3:1 Zoom Ratio: A versatile 3:1 zoom ratio erector system that is ideal for a wide range of situations.
  • Waterproof & Fogproof: Absolute waterproof and fogproof integrity means it's ready to perform in the field, in all conditions.
  • 6061-T6 Aluminum: Only use the highest quality domestic, aerospace-grade aluminum is used.
  • Durable Lens Cover: A field functional and durable bikini-style lens cover is included for excellent lens protection both in the field and while in storage.
  • Xtended Twilight Lens System: The Xtended Twilight Lens Systemâ„¢ optimizes the transmission of low-light wavelengths, so you see the details of low-light scenes in greater, brighter detail than with any other scope available.
