Description: LEUPOLD VX-5HD 3-15x44 CDS-ZL2 Side Focus FireDot Duplex ilum Viewfinder (Copy) LEUPOLD VX-5HD 3-15x44 CDS-ZL2 Side Focus FireDot Duplex ilum Viewfinder (Copy) This viewfinder is arguably one of the most versatile in the LEUPOLD catalog, as with a minimum magnification range of 3x, it provides a wide field of view for easy prey locating, while at 15x, we have enough magnification for the farthest shots, situation that can occur in the recipe mode. The VX-5HD is essentially a smaller sibling to the VX-6HD, which is priced lower, logically lacking some more advanced aspects of the upper range. But without giving up many of the features that any hunter looks for in such an optic. The peculiarities of the VX-6HDs that we won't see in the VX-5HD range are: a higher magnification ratio of 6:1 vs 5:1, it has an electronic reticle level system, alumina lens covers with inverted cap, and a reversible pull lever to help adjust the magnification ring. Also, all VX-6HD viewfinders have an illuminated reticle as a standard feature, but that is an optional addition to the VX-5HD range. It is a viewfinder that is distinguished by the use of excellent quality lenses, they have the “High Definition” (HD) feature. In addition, the VX-5HD models feature "Twilight Max Light Management System" technology, an appearance that gives the hunter an edge in the busiest hours of certain prey, typically at sunrise and sunset. For example, in the case of roe deer, it is known that these are the twilight times, where the greatest opportunities for slaughter occur. At those hours light conditions are precarious, only quality lenses, such as those on the VX-5HD, are able to provide sharp, sharp, bright images. The manufacturer ensures that this viewfinder provides 30 minutes more hunting at sunset and sunrise compared to other competing optics. Moreover, unsurprisingly, at its maximum magnifications it lacks any kind of optical aberration or distortion at the edges, with a sharp image from side to side. As is characteristic of this brand of lenses, the number of lenses is lower than other brands and the arrangement of these is taken into account to determine the treatments applied to each of them. The result is clarity and image quality, difficult to find from other manufacturers. The second important aspect, in any viewfinder, is its mechanical quality. That is, if we adjust the reticle a series of MOAs, through the turrets, this correction is reflected exactly at the point of impact. Low-profile turrets are graduated at 1/4 MOA per click, this means a correction of 7 mm for each of them at 100 m. The drift turret has a protective cap, something to thank, as it is usually always the most exposed to unintended changes, by friction and accidental blows. The side-parallax turret is also very easy to use. In general, turrets are large enough to be used by people with full-size hands, but they are not large enough to get in the way. The viewfinders from this North American manufacturer are known for their mechanical accuracy, something we have been able to verify by performing the so-called watch test and employing graduated targets. In connection with this, note that this viewfinder has its well-known ZeroLock Custom Marking System (CDS-ZL2). In it, the buyer has included a custom screen printed turret neck, according to the cartridge specifications provided by the buyer in a standardized printout. This way, knowing the distance, you will only need to mark it on the turret. Additional dials can be ordered, but yes, already at an additional cost. Another particularly notable aspect is its very generous eye relief and eyebox, a feature that makes it easy to find a comfortable shooting position quickly. In addition, the integrity of the shooter's eye, in especially powerful gauges like magnums, is guaranteed. Regarding its robustness, note that like all LEUPOLDs, this is an especially sturdy viewfinder, it is constructed of an aeronautical 6061-T6 aluminum body. The VX-5HD is waterproof and fog-resistant, plus it has Guard-Ion lens coating. According to this company, the latter treatment consists of an "ion bombardment of the molecular structure of the lens." Resulting in exterior lenses that repel water, dirt, and fingerprints very well. It's good to remember that each LEUPOLD design has to survive 5,000 impacts propelled by a machine called "The Punisher," a recoil simulator. The force of each impact is 3 times the recoil of a .308 rifle. If the model does not function properly during testing, adjustments are made to the design and tested again. Finally, speaking of its reticle, say this reference features the “FireDot Duplex” model, which is especially popular because it has a red dot in the center of the sight and is designed to help aim in extremely low light conditions. For example, this reticle is ideal for shooting a furry animal in very dark color when lighting is scarce, a circumstance where it can be very difficult to find the sight. Details: Manufactured with an aircraft grade 6061-T6 30mm aluminum tube. Light weight only 544g. Wide field of view at 100 m: 12.77 m. – 3x / 2.57 m. – 15x. Exclusive patented Argon / Krypton gas blend, which virtually eliminates the effects of thermal shock and reduces the loss of confined gases even more than proven nitrogen technology already does. Exceptional image sharpness across the magnification range. By applying proprietary coatings to the lenses, this maximizes light transmission in blue and red, in addition to balance colors, to show as much contrast as possible. Glare is controlled with special mechanical structures. Protective rain coating called Guard-Ion, extremely durable, resistant to scratches, water, dirt and fingerprints. The inner erector tube possesses a twin spring system called "Twin Bias," made of a beryllium and copper alloy, which possess 30% more holding force to withstand recoil and more intense abuse. With great eye relief: 94 mm. – 3x / 97 mm. – 15x. In addition, it has a generous "eyebox", making it very easy and quick to adjust the position of the head with respect to the eyepiece for perfect vision. FireDot Duplex reticle with fiber optic lighting system, offering a perfect balance of contrast and brightness in both daytime and low light conditions. Patented Motion Sensor (MST) technology, automatically turns off reticle illumination after five minutes of inactivity, to reactivate instantly as soon as any motion is detected. Turrets in MOAs: 1 click - 1/4 MOA. Low-profile turret, with up to two full rotations, allowing for a maximum lift of 75 MOAs. The lock button remains in view during the first turn and hides during the second. The CDS-ZL2 (Custom Dial System ZeroLock2) system for the height turret, is easily operated to set positions quickly, just press the lock button while we make the turn. In addition, the system allows for easy zeroing and therefore return to the starting position very quickly.
