Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 450 Bushmaster Duplex spotting scope

The Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 1" 450 Bushmaster Duplex is an exceptional hunting optic that combines advanced features to deliver a superior shooting experience. This optical sight is equipped with the Twilight Light Management System, ensuring optimal image brightness even in low-light conditions. With its enlarged magnification ring and pre-calibrated elevation knob for 450 Bushmaster ammunition, this scope allows shooters to confidently engage targets at a range of 250 meters.

One of the standout features of the VX Freedom series is the Twilight Light Management System, which significantly enhances image brightness while eliminating image blur and stray light reflections. The premium lens used in this scope guarantees high image sharpness, ensuring a clear and crisp sight picture.

For long-range shooting, the optional Custom Dial drum system eliminates the need for aiming point corrections due to factors like distance, gravity, and wind effects. This feature simplifies the shooting process and allows for more accurate and consistent shots at extended ranges.

The Leupold VX-Freedom scope also boasts an enlarged zoom ring, enabling quick and convenient magnification adjustments without taking your eyes off the target. This feature enhances the shooter's efficiency and allows for swift target acquisition.

Durability is a key consideration in the design of this scope. It features a lightweight and durable construction that effectively disperses recoil energy, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding hunting situations. To further validate its durability, Leupold subjects the VX-Freedom scopes to rigorous testing on the Punisher simulation machine, which administers 5000 recoil tests generating shocks three times the recoil of a .308 rifle.

Some models of the VX-Freedom series offer additional features such as the optional FireDot illumination reticle, which provides an illuminated aiming point visible in all lighting conditions. The 30mm tube available on selected models provides a greater range of aiming reticle adjustment, especially useful for longer distances. Moreover, the Motion Sensor Technology (MST) in selected models extends battery life by utilizing a motion sensor.

The robust construction of the Leupold VX-Freedom scope ensures its resilience to internal evaporation and various weather conditions. The sealed tube design guarantees 100% resistance to internal lens evaporation and ensures optimal performance regardless of environmental factors.

In terms of physical attributes, the Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 1" 450 Bushmaster Duplex measures 315mm in length, offering a lightweight and compact hunting scope. The one-piece inch barrel is made from anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, providing exceptional durability against shock, recoil, corrosion, and scratches.

The optical system of this scope is engineered to deliver a bright and clear image. Leupold's emphasis on image quality is evident in the premium lenses and Twilight system, which greatly enhance light transmission while reducing scattered light by nearly 80% compared to similar models on the market. The resulting image is bright, high-contrast, and sharp from edge to edge, making the scope suitable for hunting during dawn and dusk when light conditions are challenging.

With a wide field of view ranging from 11.22 to 4.54 meters per 100 meters and a 3-9x magnification range, the Leupold VX-Freedom scope is particularly well-suited for medium distances. Additionally, the scope accommodates users wearing corrective glasses thanks to its large exit pupil distance. Image focus adjustment is conveniently achieved using the mottled ring.

The scope utilizes a classic Duplex (30/30) sighting reticle, which consists of four arms that converge into a "thin hair" in the central part. This reticle design, created by Leupold in 1962, provides a clear and high-contrast aiming point for accurate and rapid shooting in various lighting conditions.

The low-profile turrets of the VX-Freedom scope are 1/4 MOA adjustable, allowing precise adjustments for windage and elevation. The crosshair adjustment range is 60 MOA both vertically and horizontally. The tactile moleskin walls on the barrel knobs facilitate easy operation, even when wearing tactical gloves.

The elevation adjustment knob is specifically calibrated for the ballistics of .450 Bushmaster ammunition, enabling quick and precise distance adjustments without requiring additional corrections.

The .450 Bushmaster ammunition was developed for hunters seeking confidence in their shots at a distance of 250 meters. Created by Tim LeGendre of LeMag Firearms and the Bushmaster Firearms International concern, this ammunition offers excellent performance and reliability.
