Y ou ’ re P a r t of the T raditio n In a sport rich in tradition, Leupold ® has earned its place as one of the classic names in hunting and shooting. T o be sure, the Golden Ring ® scope you now own is the finest example of Leupold heritage. Frederick Leupold came to Portland, Oregon, from Germany in 1907, and quickly established a firm to man[...]

1 Kn o w Y o ur Sc o pe Riflescopes have become far more sophisticated over the years, but the four most basic parts have remained the same. Working from front to back they are: 1. The objective lens (or front lens) is critical to a superior sight picture. 2. The internal erector lenses which right the image. 3. The reticle, often referred to as th[...]

5 EST ABLI SHING E YE REL IEF ON RIFLES AND SHOTGUNS Because of the safety considerations associated with proper eye relief, Leupold strongly recommends that you mount your scope as far forward as possible. Beyond that, follow these steps: 1. With the scope as far forward in the mounts as possible, hold the rifle in your normal shooting position. ([...]

6 Leupold riflescopes are engineered to provide a generous 3" to 5" eye relief, depending on the model and the magnification level. WA R N I N G If a scope is mounted too far to the rear , the eyepiece can injure the shooter’ s brow . Shooting at an uphill angle also increases this haza rd because it shortens the distance between the br[...]

7 The eye relief of handgun scopes is more forgiving than that of riflescopes. Nevertheless, it is important that the eye relief is compatible with your shooting style. EST ABLISHING EYE RELIEF ON HANDGUN SCOPES Since handguns are typically fired from an arms-extended position, eye relief is less of a safety issue than with riflescopes. However , i[...]

8 Unlike riflescopes, adjustments to the eyepiece in handgun scopes affect the eye relief as well as the reticle focus. T urning the eyepiece clockwise increases eye relief and turning it counterclockwise decreases it. COMPLETING THE INST ALLA TION 1. Without disturbing the optimal eye relief position, rotate the scope until the elevation adjustmen[...]

9 If your Leupold scope is one of our models with an eyepiece that has a lock ring, follow these simple steps: 1. Grasp the eyepiece with your hand and back it away from the lock ring. Once the lock ring is free from the eyepiece, turn it clockwise away from the eyepiece to keep it out of the way during the adjustment. 2. If you tend to hold things[...]

10 If your Leupold scope is one of our models without an eyepiece lock ring, follow these simple steps: 1. All adjustment is made with the eyepiece. 2. Look through the scope with quick glances while focusing the reticle image. If you tend to hold things away from yourself to see them clearly (farsighted) turn the eyepiece ring counterclockwise unt[...]

Follow the directions included with the collimator for specific instructions on its proper use. Remember , when possible, it is better to make the initial windage adjustments to the mount b[...]

12 TRADITIONAL BORE-SIGHTING (BOL T ACTIONS) Preliminary sighting-in can also be accomplished by bore-sighting at the firing range using a target from 20 to 50 yards away . 1. Position the firearm on the bench, using sandbags to steady the firearm. 2. Remove the bolt from the firearm. 3. Looking through the bore itself, move the firearm to center t[...]

13 THE FINAL STEP: THREE-SHOT GROUPS Whichever bore-sighting method you’ve used, the next steps are the same on the firing range. T o ensure reliable results, always fire from a rested position when performing these steps. (If you are using an adjustable objective or side focus model scope, perform any correction for parallax before continuing, a[...]

14 On the sample target, the center of the group is two inches low and three inches right. Assuming you’re sighting-in at 100 yards, you should make a 2-MOA adjustment up, and a 3-MOA adjustment left. Y our next three-shot group should be very close to the center of the target. T o learn about making final adjustments, proceed to the upcoming sec[...]

15 Mak ing Precise W in d a g e A nd El e vat io n Adjustments The style of elevation and windage adjustments on Leupold riflescopes varies with specific models. Each, however , is clearly marked in easy to read increments. If, for example, there are four hash marks from zero to (and including) the number one on an adjustment knob, then the value o[...]

16 ADJUSTING WINDAGE AND ELEV A TION ON VX ® -7 RIFLESCOPES (SPEEDIAL ™ ) The adjustment cover is integral to the adjustment mechanism. T o make a correction, simply rotate the adjustment cover counterclockwise until it “pops up,” fully revealing the adjustment indication markings, and make the appropriate correction. T o secure the adjustme[...]

17 ADJUSTING WINDAGE AND ELEV A TION ON T ARGET AND T ACTICAL SCOPES Leupold T arget, Competition, and most T actical scopes have micrometer-style windage and elevation adjustments. A click for each adjustment division can be both heard and felt so adjustments to the scope can be made without looking at the dials. Indicators on the micrometer porti[...]

18 BULL ET DROP COMP ENSA TION DIALS Special bullet drop compensation (BDC) elevation dials are featured on selected scopes. These dials are calibrated to achieve adjustment to specific distances rapidly by distance indicators marked directly on the dials.

19 VX-II and FX-II models have a pointer dial that moves with the adjustment slot. This dial also can be moved independently to align with the zero on the outermost dial. T o reposition this dial simply rotate it until the pointer is aligned with the zero. VX-III and FX-III models have an indicator dial that can be moved independently to align with[...]

20 T o reposition the dials on VX-7 riflescopes: 1. Unscrew the adjustment cover until it “pops up,” fully revealing the adjustment indication markings and set screws. 2. Loosen the set screws that surround the top of the dial portion. 3. Move the cylinder dial by hand to align the zero with the gold witness mark at the base of the cylinder . 4[...]

21 T o reposition the dials on T arget and T actical models: 1. Loosen the set screws that surround the top of the knob until the cylinder turns freely . 2. Move the cylinder dial by hand to align the zero with the white perpendicular mark at the base of the cylinder . 3. T ighten the set screws until the cylinder is secure. T arget-style dials can[...]

25 R ANGE ESTIMA TING WI TH VX-III SCOPES Selected VX-III scopes have a built-in range estimator . This system uses the Duplex ® portion of the reticle in combination with an additional set of numbers on the power selector ring. (Also see the Leupold Range Estimating Reticle Instructions for other reticle types.) In scopes with this feature the sp[...]

26 On scopes with this feature, the numbers facing forward show the scope’ s magnification settings. The numbers facing the back are for ranging and show the distances in yards, as shown in Figure C. T o estimate range, follow these steps: 1. View the target through the scope. 2. When targeting an animal with a body that is 16 inches from backbon[...]

27 UNDERST ANDING P ARALLAX Parallax is the apparent movement of the target relative to the reticle when you move your eye away from the center point of the eyepiece. It occurs when the image of the target does not fall on the same optical plane as the reticle. This can cause a small shift in the point of aim. Maximum parallax occurs when your eye [...]

28 However , there are exceptions: 1. Leupold rimfire scopes are set to be parallax free at 60 yards. 2. Leupold shotgun/muzzleloader scopes are set to be parallax free at 75 yards. 3. Leupold Handgun and Ultralight 2.5x scopes are set to be parallax free at 100 yards. THE A DV A NT AGE OF A DJUST ABL E PA R A L L A X S E T T I N G S C O P E S T ar[...]

29 The parallax adjustment can be located either at the objective end of the scope or on the side of the adjustment turret housing. The adjustment moves a lens within the scope causing the target image and the reticle to fall on the same optical plane. This ensures optimal accuracy at the distance of the target. T o eliminate parallax in adjustable[...]

30 NOTE: The side parallax adjustment knob is not to be used to focus the target image. If the reticle is first focused and the parallax then properly set, the image should be clear . EF R SC OPES AND THE AD JUST ABLE OBJE CTIVE Leupold EFR (Extended Focus Range) scopes can eliminate parallax for distances as short as 10 meters. Unlike conventional[...]

31 1. T urn the focus ring counterclockwise (when viewing though the eyepiece) until it stops. 2. T urn the focus ring clockwise until the “10m” mark aligns with the indicator mark on the bell of the scope. 3. From this point, all readings of the focus ring are in numerical order when the ring is turned clockwise from the shooting position. 4. [...]

32 All Leupold Illuminated Reticle scopes may be used in either the standard or the illuminated state. When not illuminated, the reticle performs the same as the reticle in a standard Leupold scope. Illuminating the reticle allows a better distinction to be made in poorly lighted conditions between the target and the precise position of the aiming [...]

33 T o illuminate the reticle: 1. Grasp the illumination dial located at the top of the eyepiece shell. 2. T urn the dial clockwise from the OFF position to the first number indicated on the dial. 3. View the target through the scope to determine if the reticle is bright enough to stand out clearly against the target. 4. If more illumination is req[...]

34 C ha ng i n g th e B a tte r y The battery for the Leupold Illuminated Reticle is located inside the control dial and can be changed without tools. Battery All Leupold Illuminated Reticle scopes use a 3-volt lithium photo battery . See page 32. T o change the battery: 1. Remove the battery cover by grasping its edge (located around the top of th[...]

35 This can be done in two ways: a. Grasp the edges of the battery between the thumb and forefinger and lift it free of the dial. OR b. T urn the scope so that the illumination dial faces downward and gently tap the eyepiece against the edge of your palm. 3. Insert the new battery , positive (+) side up. 4. Replace the battery cover on the illumina[...]
