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.

3 PLEA SE RE AD THI S ENTI RE HAND BOOK B EF ORE MOU NTIN G Y OU R SC OP E. THE L OWER THE SCOP E, THE BET TER A scope mounted close to the rifle ensures proper cheek weld on the stock for a stable firing position and allows for rapid target acquisition.
4 scope must clear the bolt handle, hammer (on lever actions and handguns), sights, and barrel. When installed, be sure that your scope does not interfere with firearm operation and does not contact anything except the mount rings.
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 .
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.
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.
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.
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.
11 H ow to S igh t - In USIN G A BORE-SIGH TIN G COLLIM A TOR T o save time and ammunition, start out in your shop or gun room with a bore-sighting collimator . Follow the directions included with the collimator for specific instructions on its proper use.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 .
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 .
22 CENTER ING W INDAGE AND ELE V A TI ON ADJUST MENT S TO ACH IEVE OPTIMUM AD JUSTM ENT TR A VEL Making windage and elevation adjustments moves the entire erector system horizontally and vertically inside the scope.
23 W hat Y o u S ho uld K now Ab ou t V a r iabl e P ower Scopes Leupold variable power scopes allow you to select from a range of magnifications to suit your particular rifle, cartridge, and shooting needs. WARNING: Do not loosen the screw in the power selector ring.
24 VX - 7 B AL LI ST I CS IN DI CA T O R RI NG Certain ballistics-compensation reticles such as the Boone and Crockett, and V armint Hunter’s reticle may require tuning to achieve maximum precision with multiple loads. The VX-7 ballistics indicator ring allows you to manually set a reference point for your current trajectory .
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
36 L eupold Means Minimal Mainte nance LENSES Leupold scope lenses are coated to reduce light reflections and light scattering, thus increasing light transmission through the scope.
37 SEA LS Leupold scopes are sealed from within by several methods, including O-rings. All seals are permanent and require no maintenance. SC OPE EXTERIOR Leupold scopes are made of rugged 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum alloy . No maintenance of any kind is required; simply wipe off any dirt or fingerprints that accumulate with a clean, dry cloth.
