Leupold VX-3i Long Range Precision Riflescopes

BEAVERTON, Ore. — Leupold & Stevens, Inc., introduces the VX®-3i LRP (Long Range Precision) riflescope for shooters who want to push their performance to new distances.
The VX-3i LRP delivers high-end features in a competitively priced riflescope, built to the same demanding standards and quality as the rest of the Leupold® line of products.

“Long-range shooting has exploded over the past few years, thanks to the growing number of high-quality, affordable precision rifles,” said Tim Lesser, vice president of product development for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “We’ve taken more than 70 years of experience in precision optics and put that into the VX-3i LRP. The result is a high-end, long-range riflescope that’s within most people’s budget, be it for PRS, long-range target shooting or even hunting.”

Building off the cutting-edge VX-3i, featuring Twilight Max® Light Management System, the LRP offers all the features and tools long-range shooters need in a performance optic. This versatile optic is as at home on a PRS competition rifle as it is on a lightweight, back country sheep rifle.
Models will be available in either front focal plane or rear focal plane, meaning the shooter has a riflescope to match his or her preference. Larger, tactile adjustment dials are easy to manipulate and feature a zero stop on the elevation. A capped windage adjustment comes with a thread protector, for those who want immediate access to their dial.

Precise, tactile clicks deliver true tracking across the entire range of travel and are available in either ¼ MOA or 0.01 mil adjustments. Read more
