Helpful Positive Review Leupold does it again! by Rick, December 26, 2018
I am a long time fan of Leupold products. I own six scopes, a range finder, and a pair of binoculars. In addition, while not a necessity, I am pleased to buy from an american company. This particular scope is the best I've owned to date. Extremel...

Helpful Positive Review Deer Hunter by Wayne, December 30, 2017
Scope is excellent quality. Clear, bright and tracks to standard. Rated four because of excessive time to receive CDS dial from date ordered 10-12 weeks. If you have a western hunt scheduled early September 2018. Recommend you order the dial NLT A...

Helpful Positive Review VX-5HD 2-10x42 duplex by Guts, June 15, 2018
I really like that Luepold offers a duplex reticle in a standard scope. I do not like all the gobbledygook mill dot, BDC, etc on a hunting scope. I do realize most shooters are wannabe snipers but Luepold still throws us real hunters a bone.The VZ-5H...

Helpful Positive Review Awesome clarity! by bear, July 26, 2017
Just got this scope in today's mail. It is one of the clearest, brightest scopes that I have ever owned. It is as good, or maybe better than the Swarovski scopes that I own. I can't wait to get it on a rifle, and take it to the woods this fall. I...

Product Info for Leupold VX-5HD 2-10x42mm Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

Designed with an incredibly wide field of view for your hunting needs, the Leupold VX-5HD 2-10x42mm Reticle Rifle Scope lets you easily acquire targets and land long-distance shots with pinpoint accuracy. These Rifle Scopes by Leupold feature a two-turn CDS Zerolock 2 dial adjustment system that gives you the confidence to land long-range shots without worrying about holdovers. The Leupold VX-5HD Waterproof Rifle Scope utilizes a twin bias spring erector system that practically eliminates backlash and extraneous stress on the inner workings of the scope - creating as shockproof device that can handle the recoil of your weapon with ease. Get crystal clear views from this optic thanks to the Twilight Max Light Management System that obtains maximum light transmission and controls glare. Generous eye relief makes this the perfect scope for hunting as you can comfortably sight targets with edge-to-edge brightness and clarity. Get the Leupold 2-10x42mm Hunting Rifle Scope for premium glass that's born to take down big game in the wild.image

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-5HD 2-10x42mm Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP):

  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • The 30mm maintube offers incredible strength and allows for the greater range of windage and elevation adjustment
  • Crafted from 6061-T6 aircraft quality aluminum
  • Light management means delivering usable light to your eye and forming a crisp, high contrasting image. Lens coatings are applied that maximize light transmission in blue and red, and balancing colors to develop the highest possible contrast. Glare is controlled with special mechanical structures. This means you can see antler tines in dark shadows long after the competition has gone home
  • Our Guard-Ion rain shedding coating is extremely durable, scratch resistant, and sheds water, dirt, and fingerprints
  • The CDS-ZL2 elevation adjustment dials easily for quick sight-in and to set for target ranges. Press the ZeroLock button to release and dial as much as 38MOA elevation. Dial back to zero and the lock snaps back into place automatically, ensuring correct re-zero and that the dial cannot accidentally move
  • Pop Up Rezero windage adjustments are easily adjusted and the dial set to the zero mark with no tools needed. A thread-on aluminum cover conceals and protects the adjustment after setting
