Special Features
Professional-Grade Optical System delivers class-leading light transmission, edge-to-edge clarity, and glare-cutting contrast, helping you see targets and game clearly in harsh sun and low light.
FireDot Duplex reticle pairs a bright illuminated center dot with a classic Duplex pattern so your eye snaps to the aiming point quickly without cluttering the sight picture.
CDS-SZL2 elevation dial locks to prevent accidental changes, includes a revolution indicator, and is compatible with a custom dial matched to your exact ballistics and conditions.
Guard-ion lens coating sheds water, dirt, and oil, keeping the glass clearer in rain, snow, and dust with minimal maintenance.
Motion Sensor Technology automatically powers illumination down after inactivity and instantly reactivates it when the scope moves, conserving battery life.
Integrated throw lever and fast-focus eyepiece make magnification changes and reticle focusing quick and intuitive when you transition from close cover to long shots.
Practical Benefits
The Leupold VX-5HD Gen 2 4-20×52 (183858) fits hunting and crossover rifles that see everything from close-range timber encounters to long shots across canyons, fields, or open country.
The 4-20x zoom range and wide low-end field of view help you locate and track animals at 4x, then zoom in for precise shot placement at extended distances with 20x.
The illuminated FireDot Duplex reticle keeps your aiming point visible on dark animals and cluttered backgrounds at dawn and dusk, supporting accurate shots in critical low light periods.
The CDS-SZL2 dial and generous MOA adjustment range let you range, dial to the target distance using a custom turret, and hold dead on instead of estimating holdover.
For hunters and serious shooters who want a long-range capable scope with premium glass, a 34mm tube, locking elevation, and a fast illuminated Duplex reticle, the Leupold VX-5HD Gen 2 4-20×52 CDS-SZL2 FireDot Duplex (183858) is a reliable pick.
