Leupold Announces New VX-4HD Line of Riflescopes

Leupold & Stevens, Inc., provider of the world’s most rugged, lightweight, and clear sport optics, is pleased to announce the launch of its new VX-4HD line of riflescopes.

From tight timber to wide-open country, the VX-4HD, with its true 4:1 zoom, is built to perform. Its Elite Optical System delivers a bright, crisp image when light gets scarce, and the integrated throw lever makes magnification changes fast and easy. Built ultra-rugged to shrug off recoil and extreme weather, the VX-4HD gives you everything you need in one scope—performance, value, and durability that outworks and outperforms everything in its class.

“For more than 70 years hunters have known what a gold ring on a riflescope means: It’s going to perform, without fail,” said Tim Lesser, Vice President of Product Development and Marketing for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “We are proud to expand our Gold Ring family with the VX-4HD, bringing that performance and promise to even more consumers across the globe.”

The VX-4HD is built around Leupold’s Elite Optical System, which delivers excellent dawn-to-dusk light transmission, glare reduction, and the resolution that diehard hunters and shooters demand. Three configurations (3-12×40, 3-12×50, and 4-16×50) and four reticle options (Duplex, Hunt-Plex, Wind-Plex, and Illuminated FireDot Twilight Hunter) are available, providing maximum versatility. Illuminated models extend battery life with Leupold’s Motion Sensor Technology (MST), which automatically deactivates the reticle after five minutes of inactivity.

The CDS-ZL2 dial included on most VX-4HD’s features Leupold’s push-button ZeroLock system, preventing accidental dial movement. Utilizing Leupold’s Custom Dial System (CDS), the CDS-ZL2 dial compensates for bullet drop and helps hunters make ultra-quick elevation adjustments on the fly. One free dial is available with the purchase of a CDS-compatible VX-4HD. Additional dials are available for purchase. Read more

2026 Black Lake sturgeon season results announced

Feb. 9, 2026
Contact: Neal Godby, 231-340-2621 or Tim Cwalinski, 231-340-0276

Anglers and onlookers view the sturgeon harvested during the 2026 Black Lake season at the sturgeon pole.This year’s sturgeon season on Black Lake (in Cheboygan and Presque Isle counties of Michigan) ended at 8:48 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 7. The season, which included spearing and hook-and-line fishing, was scheduled to run Feb. 7-11, or until the harvest limit of six lake sturgeon had been reached – but just 48 minutes turned out to be enough time.

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources set the harvest limit for the season at six fish, though anglers were allocated a season quota of seven sturgeon by agreement with tribal governments. This limit was placed to accommodate the expected number of anglers and anticipate the possibility of near simultaneous harvest of more than one fish, as occurred in 2025.

There were 679 registered anglers this year. The harvested sturgeon ranged in size from 52.9 inches to 67.2 inches long and weighed 40.4 pounds to 79.4 pounds.

  • The first fish was a 61.5-inch male that weighed 50 pounds.
  • Fish number two was a 64.1-inch female that weighed 78.4 pounds.
  • Fish three was a 52.9-inch male that weighed 46.6 pounds.
  • Fish four was a 67.2-inch female that weighed 79.4 pounds.
  • The fifth fish was a 58.1-inch sturgeon that weighed 40.4 pounds.
  • The sixth fish was a 62.5-inch female that weighed 58.4 pounds.

Only one of the harvested fish had not been captured before by Michigan State University and the DNR during spring spawning runs in the Black River or during past surveys of Black Lake. The sex of the fifth fish, which was not previously tagged, will be determined using DNA from fin clips collected when the fish was registered. Read more
