BEAVERTON, Ore. -(Ammoland.com)- Leupold & Stevens, Inc. has introduced the VX-Freedom line, a new series of riflescopes that will deliver relentless reliability and elite optical performance at a price point that’s impossible to disagree with – especially given that the line is designed, machined, and assembled in the United States.
Military-spec lens coatings provide abrasion resistance, protecting the riflescope in the most challenging terrain. An ergonomically advanced power selector ring is low-profile, but provides exceptional grip and ease of use, even in the cold, wet or when wearing gloves.
The VX-Freedom series delivers excellent performance in low-light situations and is exceptional at glare management, thanks to the proprietary Leupold Twilight Light Management System. A combination of lens coatings and physical design elements in the riflescope itself, the Twilight Light Management System helps hunters make the most of low-light conditions found at dawn and dusk.
“Our new VX-Freedom line delivers the versatility and performance hunters and shooters have come to expect from the Leupold brand, all while remaining budget-friendly,” said Tim Lesser, vice president of product development for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “Whether you’re looking for your first scope or your fortieth, there will be a VX-Freedom that suits your needs – all sporting our legendary gold ring.”
The VX-Freedom will initially be available in some of the industry’s most popular magnification ranges, such as 1.5-4×20, 2-7×33, 3-9×40, 3-9×50, 4-12×40. All VX-Freedom models offer a second focal plane reticle and 1-inch main tube.
The series will support muzzleloader, rimfire and centerfire options for consumers. Duplex, Pig-Plex and the new Rimfire MOA, Tri-MOA and UltimateSlam reticles will be available.
MSRP: $234.99 – 389.99
The VX-Freedom series is everything consumers expect from a Leupold: designed machined, and assembled in the Oregon factory, tested to the same ruggedness standards as top-tier riflescopes, and guaranteed for a lifetime of performance.

About Leupold:
Founded in Oregon more than a century ago, Leupold & Stevens, Inc. is a fifth generation, family-owned company that designs, machines and assembles its riflescopes, mounting systems and tactical/Gold Ring spotting scopes in the USA. The product lines include rifle, handgun and spotting scopes; binoculars; rangefinders; mounting systems; and optical tools, accessories and Pro Gear.
So how do these compare with their current line up? I am guessing by the magnification ranges that it’s based off of a VX1 or VX2.
The product descriptions from my favorite scope producer are nowhere near as clear as their glass.
High end leupold’s are very nice but bang for my buck I like nikons.
Because Vortex has garnered a sizable share of Leupold’s market. You cannot get better bang-for-the-buck than Vortex Optics. And I have near 2 dozen optics from both combined. My single favorite pieces of both are a Vortex Viper PST 4-16×50/EBR-1 on my Ruger Precision Rifle(.308WIN) and a Leupold VX-R 4-12×40/Ballistic Firedot on my SIG716(.308WIN). Both are illuminated reticles, good in early/late light for aging eyes. To get any optics above those in quality gets into absurd prices and I really cannot see the difference in glass quality(pun!).
