Leupold Scopes: A Hunter’s Favorite Optic

Posted on  | 0 Comments

When searching for tactical scopes or hunting scopes, you might find that your search results often end up with Leupold Optics somewhere near the top of your results. That is not a coincidence. Leupold scopes are widely regarded as one of the best hunting scopes on the market today. But their reputation does not stop with just hunting; they are commonly regarded as an all-around elite source for optical equipment. Let’s take a look at some of the reasons Leupold scopes have found their way onto firearms across America.

A Rich History in Optics

The Leupold Company – or rather, Leupold & Stevens – has over 100 years of experience in the field, with experience in surveying equipment, optical equipment for U.S. military tactical missions, water level indicators, range finders for golf pros, and most notably, firearm scopes. Leupold is a company that knows their competition will neither outlast them nor outperform them. That’s because the company has many qualities that separate them it from the rest of the industry.

Built on Core Values

A major reason Leupold withstands the test of time is that their company sticks strictly to their core values. These resonate through everything they do.

  • Desire. They love hunting, plan and simple. The freedom that comes with exploring the great American outdoors drives their employees to produce the best scopes possible.
  • Innovation. Being on the cutting edge of technology keeps the Leupold company motivated. New designs and better scopes continue to grace our firearms due to this drive.
  • Knowledge. Leupold extensively tests their product in the field before it ever hits the shelf. Understanding best practices and practical applications on the hunt helps them know how best to improve their products.
  • Discipline. Leupold refuses to stop until the job is done. They explore every possible avenue that will help them create scopes that make your life easier and your shooting better.
  • Integrity. Leupold strives to stand by their product through thick and thin, continually improving upon products in part by listening to issues that customers have had with previous models.
  • Loyalty. Leupold is faithful to both their company and their customers. They want to continue to make scopes that previous generations did.
  • Dedication. There is a purpose and drive behind what they do. Leupold strives to create an environment that is built on values that current and future generations can be proud of.
  • Teamwork. The best projects are made possible through teamwork. By working together within the company and with the firearms community, Leupold has consistently produced some of the more respected scopes on the market.

Product Suggestions

Whether you have been a longtime customer of Leupold or are just looking to try out some of their products, it is always a good idea to get some info on what you are buying. Three of their optics in particular are great for those looking for some inspiration.

LEUPOLD RIFLE MAN 3-9X40 WIDE DUPLEX MATTE

A rugged scope with a clear image, the rifleman wide helps you to capture more in your field of vision than other scopes. The ergonomic main tube stands tough out in the field to remain in pristine working condition for many years.

LEUPOLD FX-I 4X28 RIMFIRE FDPLX GLOSS

This fixed power scope has a standard multi-coat four lens system. It features a classic lockable eyepiece design. It does not have all the features of some of Leupold’s more complex designs, but it gets the job done.

LEUPOLD VX-R 4-12X40 BALL FIREDOT MATTE

A sleek rifle scope with daylight capabilities, the Ball Firedot can be used in several hunting situations. It comes with one-button illumination that gives you access to eight different intensity settings. There is a motion sensor to help you track activity in your field of vision. This scope is a technological juggernaut.

Those three provide a good sample of the range and diversity in the scopes that Leupold manufactures. Some require their user to be more tech savvy than others, but each will help you have a more successful hunt. Now that you know a little about Leupold and have seen some of the products they make, go out and do a little more research on your own. Check your favorite online gun store for many more of the high-powered Leupold scopes. You will be able to see why Leupold is the clear choice to make when purchasing a scope.

How to Improve Your Shooting Accuracy with a Gun Scope

Posted on  | 0 Comments

Anyone who has ever owned a weapon knows the desire to be able to shoot with greater accuracy. The most basic way to improve your accuracy is through practice. However, sometimes that just isn’t the best way to improve your firearm handling. Taking your abilities to the next level sometimes requires improvement of your firearm to take your shooting to the next level. The addition of gun optics can be what you need to achieve the next level.

Handgun scopes and other scopes can all improve the weapons they were designed for. But how do you utilize this technology to help mold you into a better sharpshooter? Let’s take a look at some popular scopes, how to determine which one fits your needs, how to calibrate them, and how to maintain them.

Scopes and Gun Optics

No scope can perform well in every situation. Many scopes have their capabilities written on them that people can interpret, but unless you are well-versed in their meaning, you probably won’t have an idea what they mean.

Reading a Scope

A basic inscription on a scope could be 12 x 40. In this example, the 12 refers to the magnifying power of the scope and the 40 indicates the diameter in millimeters of the object lens (this is the end that you do not look through). When you use a higher magnification, less area can be viewed through the scope and the amount of light that enters the scope is limited. Working against the light restrictions of magnification is the diameter of the object lens, which allows more light to pass through the scope. This brightens the image.

Remember to consider the power ratio between power versus diameter. 4 x 32 is brighter than 12 x 40, even though the diameter is larger on the 40. Because of these problems, many scopes can now be found with variable power settings. This aspect helps adjust your optics on the fly so you can react to your environment as it changes.

The Reticle

Your crosshairs, or reticles, also play a vital role in the accuracy of your optics. They are generally one vertical and horizontal line that intersect. Where the lines cross should be the center point for where you are attempting to aim. The most common type of crosshair today is a duplex reticle, due to its ability to fit multiple needs. When you focus your scope, you will want to aim it at a light-colored wall and adjust the scope until the reticle is in sharp focus.

Buying a Scope

Ultimately, though, how do you select a scope that is right for you? Like other technologies, there always seems to be a better or different model available soon after you make your purchase that has some feature you would want to have. You must remember that scopes can always be adjusted and replaced, so you are not making a lifelong commitment.

Above all, remember to keep in mind the type of shooting you will be doing with your weapon. For target hunting, you will want a scope that is good for aiming at moving targets, like low-powered scopes tend to be. Target shooters might use a higher powered scope due to the lack of movement in the shooting style. No matter if you buy an EOTech scope or any other scope on the market, here is a short checklist of how to accurately use your new scope.

  • · Determine how far away pellets land
  • · Tune the elevation and windage for the particular condition
  • · Adjust the parallax
  • · Set crosshairs to the focal point of the target

Bore Sighting Your Rifle

At a range, set two targets at 25 meters and 100 meters respectively. Use a tripod or other securing mechanism to keep your rifle from resting on a hard surface. Remove the bolt or action. Adjust the rifle stand to center the 100-meter target when looking through the breech end. Without adjusting the position, make sure you align your cross-hairs in the center.

Enjoy your new optics and learning how to use them to increase your accuracy. Remember to practice all the other rules of responsible gun ownership once you have become a better shot. If you are looking for a night vision scope, make sure to check out this article on night vision devices.

Picking a New Gun Laser

Posted on  | 0 Comments
Gun Lasers at GrabAGun

Selecting a Gun Laser

My first gun laser was mounted on a 9mm carbine. I received a lot of comments along the line of, “if you can’t acquire a target you don’t need a gun.” One of these men lost every single calf born that year to coyotes. One Saturday after a group of us had been coyote hunting, and seeing how many more I was able to take down with a laser, half of them were soon on the internet comparing lasers and other gun parts and accessories.

When sighting with a scope to target one coyote the others are running at the sound of the first shot, leaving insufficient time to draw a bead on coyotes running the 30 to 50 ft. to the woods. The laser does not require me to sight my target, I simply point the laser on the target, fire, and have it on another before they can disappear into the woods.

A laser will increase your accuracy and target acquisition speed. Having a laser is no reason to stop practicing. Any equipment will eventually fail so keep plinking on the range, with and without the laser.

Multiple Options to Choose From

That said, with the large number of options available today, you will need to do some homework when making a choice. First, you will need to answer some questions before you begin your search:

  • What firearm are you mounting the laser on? The manufacturer, model, caliber, and length of the barrel will matter. How the laser sight will be mounted is all important.
  • Whether you will be shooting in the day or night will affect your laser choice and color.
  • Whether you will or will not be mounting a light or night vision will be a consideration.
  • If the weapon will be used in a holster will also be a factor.

Knowing these answers before you buy will avoid the mistake of a laser that’s insufficient, that you can’t mount on your gun, or that won’t fit into your holster.

Some pistols will accommodate red or green lasers while others are too small for anything but red. Holster fit may be another consideration. You can probably use the same holster with a grip or slide mount laser, but are almost certain to need another holster with a rail mount. I would recommend a laser to anyone considering one. If you are planning to customize a weapon with new gun parts and accessories I would definitely recommend a laser.

Installing Your Laser

Finally, you may be asking if you can install a laser yourself. That depends upon the weapon and laser, as well as your skills in installing gun parts and accessories. The best advice is to ensure a purchase of a laser made for your weapon, model, barrel length and caliber specifically.

Some lasers come with great instructions (and sometimes the tools) for mounting and adjusting. Other laser manufacturers require that you ship your unloaded firearm to their factory for mounting. Your warranty may be voided unless shipped to the manufacturer for the mounting of any gun accessories. The variables are going to depend upon the specifics of your weapon and your choice of laser.

Lasers at GrabAGun

If you are considering the purchase of a new pistol for sale or a rifle for sale, you can order a model with a factory installed laser. Once you try it, I have no doubts many more people will be impressed.

Selecting Rifle Scope Rings

Posted on  | 0 Comments

You’ve selected your rifle, your scope, now you need a way to mount your scope correctly on to your rifle. Sometimes it can be quite confusing to a new gun owner and even some old ones! There are so many choices of optics out there, and the ways to actually put them on the gun are innumerable and complicated.

Make sure you have all the equipment you need to mount your scope: the scope, the unloaded rifle, the scope mount or base, rifle scope rings, and a set of tools including screwdrivers and an Allen wrench. If your gun isn’t equipped for scope mounts, you may need to take it to a gunsmith first.

Scope bases come in many different styles. They include Weaver, Picatinny, Redfield/Leupold and clamp-on mounts, among others. Some manufacturers build a scope base directly into the receiver. You can attach the base with either clamps or screws, depending on the type of base, and make sure to match the rifle scope ring to the base as well as your scope to prevent problems.

Rifle scope rings are usually two-piece clamps. You attach the lower part of the rings directly to the scope base as the scope will rest in the lower half of the rings. The upper part holds the scope in place and steady. It’s important to know that mounting rings come in different heights. The size of the scope’s objective lens will determine the height the mounting rings will need to be.

Overall, it’s understood that a rifle scope ring and the bases should not be the place to pinch pennies. The money will be well-spent and will ensure reliability, ruggedness, and peace of mind.
