Leupold Freedom RDS 1x34mm 1 MOA Red Dot, Muzzleloader Sight

The Leupold Freedom RDS 1x34mm 1 MOA Red Dot (part no. 186280) is built for muzzleloader seasons, giving a true 1x sight picture the riflescope-style elevation control most reflex sights skip. Leupold compresses the aiming point down to just 1 MOA for genuine precision at muzzleloader distances, and Custom Dial System compatibility lets the turret be ordered marked for your specific load. Eight brightness settings and 80 MOA of total windage and elevation travel cover a wide zeroing envelope. Among muzzleloader-focused red dot sights, the Freedom RDS is purpose-built rather than a repurposed pistol optic.
