Great for night hunting by Fetchma, February 25, 2019
Great scope, The 56mm objective with fire dot is the perfect combo for night hunting. Other scopes that illuminate a large portion of the reticle can make it difficult to see far away eyes. The fire dot is perfect. If you are looking for a ligh...

Great in low light by Jeff, January 28, 2018
I purchased the VX5HD 3-15x56 so I could move my 17 year old VariX III to my muzzleloader. This scope has great glass. Clear edge to edge and really stands out in low light. Comparing the two, it's easily got an additional 10 minutes of seeing (an...

Product Info for Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x56mm Rifle Scope, 30 mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

The massive objective and useful features of the Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x56mm CDS-ZL2 Side Focus Rifle Scope make it a prime choice for hunters looking to step up their game in the backcountry. These Rifle Scopes developed by Leupold feature the Twilight Max HD Light Management System that creates the brightest views possible by adding up to a half hour more of shooting light and eliminating 90% more glare-producing light than the competition. This Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x56 CDS-ZL2 Rifle Scope sports an ultra-lightweight design and is waterproof and fogproof to perform in harsh weather conditions. Plus, the Guard-Ion lens coating keeps the lenses free from dirt and water for crisp images in any environment. A push-button ZeroLock system prevents accidental dial adjustments so that you can stay focused on your target without worry. Mount the Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x56mm CDS-ZL2 RFP Rifle Scope for an enhanced sighting experience that will amplify your success on the hunting grounds.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.
