LEUPOLD VX-6HD 3-18x50 CDS-ZL2 Side Focus Boone & Crockett Scope

The LEUPOLD VX-6HD 3-18x50 mm is considered the most versatile hunting scope from this North American manufacturer. With a minimum magnification range of 3x, it provides a wide field of vision to facilitate the location of prey, while at 18x, we have enough magnification for the most distant shots that may occur on the stalks of our country.

If something distinguishes LEUPOLD viewers, it is the brilliant images they provide, great consistency and fidelity in colors, as well as exceptional resolution. Some good characteristics that will be noticed in the twilight moments of the day. This is possible due to the small number of internal lenses it uses and their exceptional quality. Furthermore, this economy of glass significantly helps to make these scopes generally especially light. As if that were not enough, all LEUPOLD products have a lifetime warranty.



Characteristics:

• Manufactured with a 30 mm tube of 6061-T6 aircraft quality aluminum.
• Light weight of only 587 g.
• Wide field of view at 100 m: 12.60 m – 3x / 2.30 – 18x.
• Lever for quick handling of the magnification wheel, removable and reversible.
• Exclusive proprietary Argon/Krypton gas blend, which virtually eliminates the effects of thermal shock and reduces the loss of confined gases, even more than proven nitrogen technology already does.
• Exceptional image sharpness throughout the magnification range. Thanks to the application of proprietary coatings on the lenses, light transmission in blue and red is maximized, as well as balance colors, to display the highest possible contrast. Glare is controlled with special mechanical structures.
• Protective rain coating called Guard-Ion, extremely durable, resistant to scratches, water, dirt and fingerprints.
• The internal erector tube has a twin spring system called “Twin Bias”, made of a beryllium and copper alloy, which has 30% more retention force to resist the most intense recoil and abuse.
• With great eye relief: 94 mm – 3x / 98 mm – 18x. In addition, it has a generous “eyebox”, making it very easy and quick to adjust the position of the head with respect to the eyepiece to have perfect vision.
• Boone & Crockett reticle with fiber optic illumination system, which offers a perfect balance of contrast and luminosity, both in daytime and low light conditions.
• The patented Motion Sensor Technology (MST) automatically deactivates the reticle illumination after five minutes of inactivity, to reactivate instantly as soon as any movement is detected.
• This model includes high-quality flip-up lens caps, called Alumina®.
• Turrets in MOAs: 1 click – ¼ MOA.
• Low profile turret, with a maximum of two full rotations, allowing a maximum elevation of 38 MOAs. The lock button remains visible during the first turn and is hidden during the second. The CDS-ZL2 (Custom Dial System ZeroLock2) system for the height turret is easily operated to quickly establish positions, just press the locking button while turning. In addition, the system allows easy reset and therefore return to the starting position very quickly.
• The drift turret also has a ZeroLock system, which prevents unwanted adjustments and guarantees a precise return to zero. Fast and easy to use.
• The level function makes mounting the scope easier, it is an internal electronic level control through the reticle. This system also has a special function, which temporarily disables the illumination when the scope is rotated more than 30 degrees, so that we can place the rifle on its side to save battery power.
• In the price of this model, a ballistic turret is included according to the data provided by the buyer, regarding the caliber and characteristics of the cartridge they intend to use.

Leupold MST technology to preserve battery.
That feature can be turned on and off as described in the manual and below.

To activate the electronic reticle level, press and hold the illumination button for fifteen seconds. The reticle will flash once at 5 seconds and again at 10 seconds. After 15 seconds, the reticle will flash twice indicating the electronic level is on. Release the button and press it again to turn the lighting ON. If you repeat the steps above, the reticle will flash 3 times to indicate that the electronic reticle level is OFF.
Tilt the scope more than one degree to the right or left and the illuminated reticle flashes. Set it straight and the reticle stops flashing. When tilted more than 30 degrees, the reticle turns off to save battery.




Custom CDS turret.
CDS™ System (Custom Dial System) allow you to quickly dial in your elevation setting at different ranges with a custom dial that matches your specific ballistic information. The standard CDS turrets come with a MOA scale dial. Your custom turret can be ordered for your rifle and ammunition.

To order the CDS customized ring, you must send the information that you can see in this sheet:
