Description: Leupold VX-II 3-9x40 mm Rifle Scope


The workhorse of the VX-II product group, the VX-II 3-9x40mm is the heir to the great 3-9x tradition started by Leupold more than 40 years ago. Its mid-range magnification levels and its moderate size make it extremely adaptable to a wide range of shooting conditions and game. Multicoat 4 lens system enables it to provide a clear, bright image to the user. If you only want to buy one scope to do it all, this is the scope to buy.


VX-II Features:


The VX-II is one of our most popular lines of riflescopes, and the reasons become clear to anyone who picks one up. It's packed full of useful features, including precise 1/4-minute click adjustments; the Multicoat 4® lens system for exceptional brightness and clarity; lockable, fast-focus eyepiece; tactile power indicator; and for the first time, the option of our Ballistic Aiming System reticles in select models. The VX-II is built to meet the demands of today's serious hunters and shooters.


* New! The Ballistic Aiming System – select VX-II riflescopes now feature a modified version of our Ballistic Aiming System: the LR Duplex reticle and LRV Duplex reticle. Each gives you proper holdover points for your rifle's ballistic profile, allowing you to consistently make accurate, ethical long range shots.
* Tactile power indicator makes it easy to tell your scope's magnification with just a touch, without ever taking your eye from the eyepiece.
* Multicoat 4 lens system for unparalleled light transmission in all light conditions (formerly available only on Vari-X® III riflescopes).
* Absolute waterproof and fog proof integrity – Leupold pioneered the waterproofing technology that's now the industry standard.
* Lockable, fast-focus eyepiece securely locks your eyepiece once you've set your reticle focus.
* 1/4-minute “click” adjustments for windage and elevation.
* Incredible accuracy , shot after shot, at all magnifications, for the life of the scope.
* Ruggedness that has made Leupold a legend.
* Eye relief that's generous and non-critical.

Pros: Reliable, reasonable price
Cons: A little less bright than a 50mm Objective scope

I have an older version of the scope (almost 15 years old) mounted on a .270. It's a good scope and has never failed me. If you're looking for a reasonable price scope in this size, this is a good one and it has Leopold's lifetime warranty.
