The Leupold VX-3 is a variable power riflescope that succeeded the Vari-X III line in Leupold's catalog. The VX-3 introduced Leupold's Xtended Twilight lens system, which uses an index matched lens formula and proprietary ion-assist coatings to improve light transmission during low light conditions compared to the previous Multicoat 4 system. A blackened lens edge treatment reduces internal scattering and stray light. The 8.5-25x50mm Long Range configuration is the highest magnification offering in the VX-3 lineup, built on a 30mm main tube. The 50mm objective lens delivers a wide light gathering aperture suited to the high magnification range. Parallax correction is managed through a side focus dial. Windage and elevation turrets provide 1/4 MOA click adjustments beneath low profile screw on caps. The scope is machined from a single piece of 6061-T6 aluminum, filled with a proprietary gas blend, and O-ring sealed for waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof performance.

This example is finished in matte black and is configured with a second focal plane Varmint Hunters reticle. The Varmint Hunters reticle uses fine crosshairs with horizontal and vertical stadia lines for wind holds and range estimation. No original box or accessories included.
