Leupold VX-5HD

When I set out for a week in the Rockies, I needed a scope that could handle both close-range shots and extend to 500 yards. That’s when I decided to try out the Leupold VX-5HD. Its 3-15x magnification felt like the perfect balance—giving me clarity on distant shots without the bulk of a larger scope. What impressed me the most was Leupold’s Twilight Max HD Light Management System, which kept my sight clear even in the low light of early dawn and dusk. Plus, the Custom Dial System (CDS) made adjusting for long shots a breeze. In tough terrain, this scope stood up to it all—proving it’s built for serious hunters looking for reliable performance.

Monstrum G2

The G2-BFFPS62450-R is a high-performance tactical scope from the G2 line, featuring a first focal plane reticle and an adjustable objective (AO) lens. With a magnification range of 6-24x, it allows for precise targeting at distances over 1500 yards. The package includes heavy-duty high-profile scope rings, spring-loaded flip-up lens covers, and a honeycomb shade. The scope's functionally designed rangefinder reticle facilitates faster range estimation and holdover correction, remaining visible in black or illuminated in red or green. Equipped with 1/4 MOA windage and elevation adjustments that can be reset to zero, it also has a side focus dial for easy AO adjustments.
