Finally, getting what you pay for is worth it…
I decided to describe in detail a specific model of a leupold rifle scope, so we could see and understand the benefits of the brilliant and top notch Leupold rimfire rifle scopes. about 95% the details and specs on the model mentioned can be found on all leupold models.
Specifications of the package:
Leupold rifle scope comes in a elegant black and gold box with directions, a leupold sticker and an invitation to join the nra, all matching the colors of the leupold rifle itself. the purpose of the leupold vx-freedom rifle scope model was to replace the vx-1 and the vx-2 line by offering a couple extra tools that the earlier models do not have. they are supposed to be a better quality than the vx-1 & vx-2 at a better price.
The scope:
The scope itself comes in a beautiful black matte finish, with a 6061 t6 aircraft grade aluminium housing with a 1 ” tube on it. the scope itself only weighs 12.2 ounces or 346 grams which makes it very light for a scope. for a rimfire’s length, the goal is always to try and keep it compact, and with the leupold rifle scope coming in at 12.4 “ or 31.5 centimeters. now depending on the magnification on the scope, the eye relief is anywhere between 3.66 “ to 4.71 centimeters or 93 mm to 106 mm, which would be considered pretty descent eye relief.
Usage:
The scope has adjustable 1/4 moa (max of adjustment for windage and elevation) clicks. it is a 60 yard fix paralex for rimfire which is good because not all the time will you find yourself shooting over that with rimfire. now the actual ergonomic adjustment is very acceptable and gathers its name because of the way they texturize the nob itself, so it can be functional in the dark. the crosshairs on the scope have moa hashmarks found on the lower part of it so it, (25 of them in moa increments) which makes the narrowing down of aim simple. the leudfold rimfire scopes are waterproof and fog proof with a twilight management system, for low light visibility.
