Leupold FX™ RiflescopesLeupold® has designed its new line of FX™ riflescopes to set a new standard in fixed power optics for hunting and target shooting. The FX line includes the following models: FX-III 6x42mm, FX-III 12x40mm Adjustable Objective Target, FX-II 2.5x28mm Scout, FX-II 4x33mm and FX-II 6x36mm. FX models have also been added to Leupold’s lines of competition, Ultralight, handgun and rimfire scopes. “Our FX line is for hunters and shooters who appreciate the ruggedness, accuracy, purity and comparatively light weight of fixed power scopes,” said Mike Slack, Leupold’s marketing communications manager. “Our FX scopes not only offer the functional simplicity and excellent optical performance – in low light or otherwise – for which Leupold is known, but also elegant styling that will look good sitting atop your favorite firearm.” FX-III scopes feature Leupold’s Index Matched Lens System™. This proprietary lens coating system maximizes light transmission to allow superior target definition, even in low-light conditions. FX-II scopes utilize Leupold’s Multicoat 4® lens system for optimizing image brightness, clarity and contrast. For precision tuning of windage and elevation, the core FX-III scope models have ¼-MOA finger “click” adjustments while core FX-II scope models have ¼-MOA coin “click” adjustments. On average, an FX scope is about 10 percent lighter than its variable counterpart – a significant number for hunters on the move over rough terrain. Other key features of each riflescope model: FX-III 6x42mm – well suited for intermediate to long-range shooting, providing ample magnification and a generous field of view (linear field of view, 17 feet at 100 yards or 5.7 meters at 100 meters).
