• Endures 5000 recoil tests generating shocks with 3× the recoil energy of a .308 rifle.

Optional FireDot Illumination Reticle*:

• Offers an illuminated aiming point visible in all lighting conditions (*available on selected models).

30mm Tube*:

• Provides a greater range of aiming reticle adjustment for longer distances (*available on selected models).

Motion Sensor Technology (MST)*:

• Utilizes a motion sensor to extend battery life (*available on selected models).

Robust Construction:

• Sealed tube ensures 100% resistance to internal evaporation and adverse weather conditions.

Lightweight and Durable Build:

The Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 1" CDS Duplex boasts a lightweight design, measuring 315mm in length and weighing a mere 346g. Its one-piece 1-inch barrel, constructed from anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, guarantees resilience against shocks, recoil, corrosion, and scratches. The eyepiece features an enlarged moleskin ring for swift and convenient magnification changes. The optics are sealed and filled with gas, eliminating lens evaporation and ensuring complete weather resistance.

Bright and Clear Image:

Leupold prioritizes image quality and brightness, equipping the VX-Freedom 3-9x40 with an exceptional optical system. Premium lenses and the Twilight system are employed to enhance light transmission and reduce scattered light by nearly 80% compared to similar models on the market. As a result, the sight offers a bright, high-contrast, sharp image from edge to edge, making it suitable for hunting at dawn and dusk, extending visibility by approximately 10 minutes. With a wide field of view ranging from 7.16 to 4.27 m/100m, this scope is ideal for precision long-distance shooting. Additionally, the scope accommodates users with corrective glasses, thanks to its large exit pupil distance. Image focus adjustment is easily achieved with the Fast Focus ring.

Classic Target Reticle:

The scope employs the renowned Duplex sighting reticle developed by Leupold in 1962. This reticle consists of four arms transitioning into a thin hair in the central portion. Offering clarity and high contrast, the reticle enables precise and rapid shooting across various lighting conditions.

Convenient Adjustments with the CDS System:

The Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 utilizes an innovative Custom Dial System (CDS) that enables shooters to tailor the elevation drum's parameters to their ammunition's specific ballistics and shooting distances. With a brief training session, the CDS system can be easily set up, enabling accurate and reproducible long-range shooting without the need for elevation tables or changes in the aiming point.
