FEATURES
Absolute Precision: The VX-5HD Gen 2 Riflescope
You Only Need One, One That Does It All.
If one scope has to do it all, then it better deliver all day, every day and in all conditions. That’s where the versatile, ultra-rugged VX-5HD Gen 2 blows away the competition. With tool-free zeroing, class-leading optical performance, and rugged reliability built into every detail, this second-generation of our award-winning scope is engineered for serious hunters who demand absolute precision.
New SpeedSet Elevation Dial. No Lost tools. No Wasted Time.
Every VX-5HD Gen 2 comes equipped with our new SpeedSet Elevation dial that eliminates the need for the tiny tools and screws that can get dropped in the tall grass or lost in a pack. Just press, lift, reset, and go. Whether you’re re-zeroing or installing a custom dial that matches your ammo, this innovative new system makes it faster and easier than ever to get set up and on target.
Pair that with our ZeroLock system and you’ve got a dial that’s fast, intuitive, and holds zero no matter what. This dial only moves when you want it to move.
Built Around Precision. Backed by Performance.
This isn’t just a Gen 2 in name, it’s a new generation by design. With upgraded competition-grade adjustments and a new maintube that delivers more elevation travel, the VX-5HD Gen 2 is built for those “just-one-more-click” moments when you’re stretching distance. A new integrated throw lever allows for smooth, fast magnification changes—perfect when targets show up fast or conditions shift without warning.
Plus, it’s Custom Dial System compatible, meaning you’re eligible for a free dial custom engraved to match your preferred ammo and hunting conditions. No more ballpark holds or dope charts taped to your rifle.
- Competition-Grade Adjustments - Deliver the accuracy trusted by competitive shooters, now in the hands of every hunter.
- Custom Dial System Compatible - Dial to your exact range with a Custom Dial matched to your exact load, velocity, and conditions. No holdovers. No guesswork.
- Integrated Throw Lever - Smooth, fast magnification changes let you adapt to targets at any range—perfect for when the hunt gets unpredictable.
You Can’t Hit What You Can’t See.
Like the original VX-5HD, the Gen 2 is built around our Professional-Grade Optical System—because when your target steps out at first or last light, clarity isn’t optional, it’s an absolute advantage. This optic soaks up the light, cuts down the glare, punches through the shadows and delivers the edge-to-edge clarity when it matters most.
- Unmatched Light Transmission - Extend your hunt into those crucial low-light moments where success often lives.
- Unrivalled Glare Reduction - Harsh midday sunlight? No problem. This scope thrives when others falter.
- Razor-Sharp Clarity - Identify every detail with precision, eliminating guesswork so you can execute with confidence.
KEY FEATURES - 3-15x56 30MM
The versatile VX-5HD Gen 2 features our Professional-Grade Optical System, a tool-free SpeedSet elevation dial, and new competition-grade adjustments that deliver the absolute precision and performance that serious hunters demand. It is the ideal, everything-you-need optic. And like every Leupold riflescope, it’s designed, machined, and assembled in the USA—and guaranteed for life.
- 5:1 Zoom Ratio - A versatile 5:1 zoom ratio gives you 5 times more magnification at high power than at low power (model magnification ranges may be available in powers of 5x: 1-5, 2-10, 3-15, 4-20, etc.), so you can adjust your magnification to find the perfect balance between magnification and field of view for any situation. The larger the zoom ratio, the more versatile one scope can be.
- Professional-Grade Optical System - Leupold’s Professional-Grade Optical System offers unmatched light transmission that’s designed to outperform in the most challenging lighting conditions, industry-leading glare reduction for a clear image in harsh, direct light, and the resolution and clarity that professional guides and shooters demand in the field.
- High-Definition Performance - Experience the difference with Leupold's High-Definition lenses, which provide unparalleled clarity, color, and image quality all the way to the edge of your field of view.
- Speedset Dial - The innovative SpeedSet dial eliminates the need for tools when zeroing or changing custom dials.
- Custom Dial System - Leupold's Custom Dial System® (CDS®) gives you the ability to customize your turret (adjustment dial) to your exact ballistics and environmental conditions. Once your new custom dial is installed, simply range the target, turn the dial to that number, and aim dead on.
- Zerolock Dial - The ZeroLock® system eliminates accidental dial movement by locking it in place and allows for repeatable returns to zero.
- Guard-Ion Lens Coating - Guard-ion is a hydrophobic lens coating that sheds dirt and water for a maintenance-free, clear, crisp image.
- Precision Side Focus - The side focus adjusts the scope's parallax, making the reticle appear more clear and have less perceived movement when you're shooting at different distances. (available on select models)
- Motion Sensor Technology (MST) - Motion Sensor Technology (MST™) extends battery life by automatically deactivating illuminated reticles after five minutes of inactivity and then reactivates instantly as soon as movement is detected. (available on illuminated models)
- Integrated Throw Lever - The integrated, low-profile throw lever makes changing magnifications quick and easy.
- Illuminated Reticle - This scope comes with an illuminated reticle, which creates a visible aiming point for greater accuracy in low-light conditions.
- Waterproof, Fogproof & Shockproof - Leupold pioneered modern waterproof and fogproof technology using advanced internal gasses and sealing methods that withstand extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and shocks, so the internals of the optics stay moisture free and crystal clear for life.
