As I understand it Leupold has discontinued their current VX-3i line of riflescopes. This scope is one of the very best available for
use on a dangerous game rifle. It is durable and able to withstand the recoil of a heavy rifle or slug gun. I give it the highest
marks for that particular use. Grab one while they are still available!
Pros:
- Light, durable, good value
Best Used for:
- dangerous game rifles, slug guns
Would recommend: Yes

This is a very nice small scope sold at a good price to mount on an AR15 .300 BO pistol. My pistol is used for varmint/coyote hunting and the scope is ideally suited for short range shots. Leupold products are always of highest quality and their product guarantee speaks for itself. MADE IN AMERICA!

I was looking for a reliable beater scope for getting into the thickets. Price was right and being it's a Luepold VX3 reliability it there. I placed this on top of a 18" Savage 338 WM in Talley mounts. I took it to the range put 40 rounds down range with no issues. I took it out in the field and used it for 12 days of pure torture. It was banged around in thick woods, blow downs, traversing rocky outcrops, rain, and snow. About the only thing I didn't do with it was paddle a canoe. I haven't shot it since my 1st range trip and one shot across a ravine while chasing Yogi last fall. I took it to the range over the weekend and put 3 rounds MOA at 50yrds on the lowest magnification and another three inside 2" at 100yrds on the highest. It has a couple of scratches from the field but other than that it's still spot on.

I liked the scope so much I decided to purchase a second one. The eye relief is great. The FOV is just what I was looking for. You can't go wrong with Leupold. I have never been disappointed. Optics planet delivered on time.

I have numerous scoped rifles and all of them have Leupold scopes on them but the VX3 1.5-5x20 is far and away my favorite scope. I have it on 5 rifles. It is great for getting on target quickly and also has enough magnification for the vast majority of big game hunting. I think any rifle that is not exclusively used for long range open country hunting is well served by the VX3 1.5-5x20.
For dangerous game or hunting in wooded areas it can't be beat.
Would recommend: Yes

Recommended by Leupold to use this scope on by Browning BLR. Perfect fit, no complaints and a very popular scope with the outfitters in the western states.
Also got the best deal from Optics Planet.

After researching several different scopes for my Marlin 30-30, I decided to purchase the Leupold VX-3i 1.5 - 5 X 20 for that firearm. I have several Leupold scopes and have been 100% satisfied with all of them. Optics Planet always prices their products very competitively. My only wish is that Leupold would still manufacture a gloss scope for my vintage rifles that have a high gloss finish. I called the factory and was told that gloss scopes are a thing of the past.
Would recommend: Yes

I put this on my Henry All Weather Lever Action 45-70 really nice glass. Clear all the way, grabs light really well. Very Impressed. I would buy again and again. Expecting a hunting trip for some nice big mule deer. Great scope for what I want to do, close kills being under 125 yards or so.
Pros:
- Extemely clear glass
- Exc performance
Would recommend: Yes

Bought this scope for my old 375 H&H Magnum for river fishing in AK for potential close Brown Bear encounters. I had a straight 4 power which did not acquire a target well at close range. Optics Planet staff helped me fir the correct scope to replace the previous one which was very helpful.

Love the product, but I wish I would have got the heavy duplex instead of the standard. Also, OP had it as a "group purchase" as "in stock" with the leupold lens covers...but when am a bit disappointed with the service from OP...for when it arrived the scope came and only one cover. The other cover has been on "back order" now for well over a month as it was not in stock, and I am still waiting for it...but there is still no listed arrival date. I was 50/50 on this model or the 2-7 model, which was apparently in stock, but who knows if it really was given how OP handled the sale...without letting me know it was missing part of the order when I purchased it.
Cons:
- get the heavy duplex for low light
Would recommend: Yes
