"In 2006, everything you know about riflescopes will be eclipsed."

 

 

The all new Leupold VX-L combines the benefits of large objective lens with the benefits of your scope being mounted low.  Large objective lenses produce a larger exit pupil which means a brighter image with more forgiveness when it comes to eye placement.  Mounting your scope as close to the bore means that it will be more accurate at various yardages and more comfortable for your cheek placement on the stock.

 

The new Leupold VX-L scopes will be offered in 50mm and 56mm.  The 50mm scopes will mount in low rings and the 56mm scopes will mount in medium height rings.

 

Get in line now by placing your order with SWFA.  We will be one of the first to get the new Leupold VX-L riflescopes.

  • Creates more stable shooting platform by maximizing natural point of aim and cheek weld.

    When riflescopes first came along, they were placed atop the rifle almost like
    an afterthought. And as riflescopes' low-light capabilities and technology have
    advanced, objective lenses have grown larger and larger, resulting in higher
    and higher mounts and awkward cheek welds. The designs of both the rifle and
    riflescope seemed to be set in stone -- until now. When you make the rules,
    you can break the rules, so get ready for something from Leupold that breaks
    them all.

    MAXIMUM LIGHT. MINIMUM HEIGHT. In 2006, Leupold will integrate the
    low-light capability of the modern riflescope with the design of the modern
    rifle, in an ergonomic riflescope that's different from anything you've ever
    seen. Introducing the revolutionary new Leupold VX-L. Leupold's optical en-
    gineers created a radically different, proprietary, patents-pending design
    that forms a small crescent in the lower radius of the objective lens, so the
    VX-L can be mounted to hug the barrel, like part of the rifle itself. Leupold's
    legendary low-light performance, ruggedness, and absolute waterproof inte-
    grity remain 100 percent intact. No sacrifices, only the pioneering perfor-
    mance you can expect from Leupold, America's Optics Authority®.

    Mount your 50mm VX-L as low as a typical 36mm riflescope, and your 56mm
    VX-L as low as a 40mm riflescope, while gaining a larger exit pupil and other
    low-light advantages! But that's not all. The VX-L also features our second
    generation of waterproofing technology, our exclusive DiamondCoat Index
    Matched Lens System™ with new blackened lens edges, and more. If you've
    been waiting for the low down on low-light performance, it's finally here.
