The Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 1-6×24 riflescope with the illuminated FireDot Duplex reticle (part no. 183835) is a true low-power variable optic, giving hunters and competition shooters a genuine 1x for close, fast engagements and 6x reach for follow-up shots at distance. Leupold builds the Professional-Grade Optical System around a 30mm tube, and Guard-Ion lens coating repels water and debris to preserve a clear sight picture in adverse conditions. Custom Dial System compatibility and Motion Sensor Technology add repeatable, user-friendly control, and the scope carries Leupold’s lifetime guarantee. Among 1-6x gun scopes for hunting and dynamic shooting, this VX-6HD Gen 2 is built for rapid transitions.
