I installed this optic on a crossman 760 air rifle.I have now shot the riffle around 500 times during target/plinking practice, and the ru-vid.comUgkxc4K63Fd5LglDMObu7-Bgapxp_ef0W8hE scope has done well.With this optic, I have neutralized around 30 pigeons that were invading one of my buildings.For my short range air rifle, I will continue to use this scope, but will be upgrading to a more powerful scope, when I buy a more powerful air rifle, in order to shoot at longer distance.For the money I have spent, this scope has truly been a great buy.

Another thing to take note for people looking into budget hunting rifles, you know the ones that come with a scope. Save yourself a headache and ditch that scope. Those scopes often adjust very poorly and make it difficult to dial in your scope. Sometimes you will set the vertical adjustment and the site will dial in diagonally. You can get a Leupold 3-9X40 scope with a Duplex Reticle for around 200$. It will last you a lifetime and is backed by Leupold's lifetime warranty. It really is worth spending the extra 200$

Nice informative video. I love VX3i scopes with CDS and you also can send them into the Leupold Custom Shop and they will install a MOA dial for windage as well. I have done this on three VX3i scopes I have and when I did it was $90 per scope. What sold me on Leupold CDS was Prairie Dogs shooting with ranges changing constantly. D Q that would be Delta Quebec USMC 79-82

Nice acronym, but we all know D is in Diary and Q is in Queen aka Diary Queen, the home of the Dilly Bars and other delicious treats. Oh and if anyone is wondering about the rifle package in front of him that is the Randy Newberg Special Edition by Howa exclusive at Sportsmen's Warehouse whether the physical store or the sportsmans.com website. Thanks for sharing a quick overview Randy, my youngest brother ordered a VX-3i 4.5-14x40 CDS for his 7mm Rem Mag and a VX-Freedom 4-12x40 for his .270 Win this year. He loves them and I recently acquired a .300 WSM, that I plan on eventually putting a Leupold on when I get the $$$, but the Redfield (owned by Leupold) Revenge Hunter 4-12x40 that he had on his .270 before upgrading to the Leupold will do me wonderfully until then.

I'm looking at the Leupold Freedom VX 3-9X40 with CDS It will be going on a Savage Axis2 25/06 This is the most informative rifle scope video I have found you know what you are talking about

@justinpeck3667 4 года назад

Good video! Clear and to the point. My one disagreement was Leupold knowing exactly what hunters need. They still don't offer a standard Milradian adjustment which is the main reason I went with a Nightforce. Irritating to no end.

@kellan_korenko 4 года назад

Thanks for the info

@kyle-ri5mz 4 года назад

what about the Parallax adjustment? How important is that when buying a scope if you plan on shooting out to a max of 300 yards?

@hbhunter4559 4 года назад

Thanks Randy however I have been hunting for over 25 years and I can not get a Leupold scope to hit close to the same spot? Starting with the VX1. My faith in this optic has gone out the window. I switched to another scope manufacture and have been solid. Leupold mounts on a 300 short mag, 30-06 now they are my go to for the good old 22lr for what ever pest they might hit. Thanks for the great videos from up here in Canada. Join me for a hunt one day.

Randy, give me a shout the next time you’re hunting near Iowa. Would love to even meet up for a DIY public land hunt if you’re up for it. You pick the state and date and let me know. Email me if you want. God bless ya.

@talltimber1408 4 года назад

Have the same scope on my superlight. Working on loads still before i get a cap made.

@AdnanKhan-ky3jp Год назад

Great video for educating first timers like me. Soon I am buying my first rifle which is Ruger .22LR 10/22. My question is, should I buy one with the scope Attached or buy a Ruger without the scope and buy scope separately. I also don't want to spend too much on a scope for 10/22. If you or someone on this chat can advise will be much appreciated, thank you.

@gthomsen180 4 года назад

Randy - A very good plain english explanation of scope terminology. Just one small clarification. You said the objective lens end of the scope is always larger. It isn't very common, but some scopes have an objective lens that is the same diameter as the scope tube and therefore smaller than the ocular end of the scope. It used to be more common on fixed, low magnification scopes. People used them when shooting short distances (maybe think dangerous game in Africa). Anyway thanks for all the information you are passing on.

@Fresh_Tracks 4 года назад

Oops, I forgot about those few scopes that will have that situation. Good catch.

@rendendye8741 3 года назад

Would you recommend getting the Sig Sauer 2.5- 8X32mm or the Sig sauer 4.5-14x44mm or my other option is the vortex tactical 16X44 don’t know to much about scopes but building a long range muzzle loader! I have the cva paramount

So Leupold VX2 has two times magnification 😂 because there is VX2 3-9x40. I divide 9÷3=2 😂 Thank you. VX 2 doesn't mean two times magnification. The number is showing the generation of the scope.
