LEUPOLD LONG RANGE SCOPE

Recommended Posts

for sale...LEUPOLD VX-3   4.5-14X50   W/30mm tube   LONG RANGE SCOPE MATTE FINISH   $500

built in Leupold's Custom Shop. it has a custom reticle if needed but has a turret system installed. some small blemishes from scope rings . one other small blemish. comes with end cap & scope cover.

the internal adjustments for elevation are in 1/3 minutes rather than the standard 1/4 minutes for most scopes. not only does this increase the overall internal adjustment of the scope, but it also gives the hunter the ability to get 20 minutes more of angle in one revolution of the turret. thus making elevation corrections faster in the field. the scope has a side focus and parallax dial.

I think the reticle is for range finding not hold over. John Byrnes designed it because sometimes his range finder wouldn’t work in fog. Supposed to get an elk ranged out to 400 yds. Great deal on this scope. They were $1100 back then. Not sure I have the name correct.
