Everyone from dangerous game and turkey hunters to muzzleloading, rimfire, and airgun enthusiasts will find a scope that complements their particular passion.

The Compacts

Leupold compact scopes may be small in stature but they’re big on ruggedness, dependability, and craftsmanship, just like our full-size models.

The M8-2.5x20mm Compact is an excellent example of this. Brought back into the Leupold line by popular demand, it has generous exit pupil and remarkable eye relief, as well as an expansive field of view. It’s ideal for turkey hunting, shotgun deer hunting, crossbow hunting, even hunting dangerous game. It’s also available with an optional Turkey Ranger reticle.

The variable power Vari-X 3-9x33mm Compact is just 11 inches in length, but is big on versatility, offering a truly exceptional sight picture. For sports such as air rifle shooting, in which precision close focusing is a must, there’s our Vari-X 3-9x33mm EFR Compact.

If weight is your main concern, the 8.2 ounce, 9.9 inch Vari-X 2-7x28mm Compact is one of the lightest compact scopes ever made. It’s available in two models: the standard, parallax adjusted for 150 yards, and the RF Special, parallax adjusted to 60 yards for rimfire rifles.

Leupold’s M8-4x28mm Compact RF Special has a Fine Duplex reticle and is specifically designed for rimfire rifles with parallax adjusted for 60 yards.

Shotgun/Muzzleloader Scopes

While many hunters enjoy the added challenge of hunting with a shotgun or muzzleloader, they still appreciate the accuracy they gain mounting one of these three Leupold scopes. They’re practical in a number of close-in shooting situations.

Three key things set Leupold Shotgun/Muzzleloader scopes apart and make them exceptional for close-range shooting. First, they’re parallax adjusted to 75 yards. Second, they offer a 24- to 75-foot field of view at 100 yards, depending on the model. Third, they come with Leupold’s Heavy Duplex reticle for precise shot placement on targets even in dense cover.

A favorite of shotgunners, slug gun deer hunters, muzzleloaders, those who hunt dangerous game, and those hunting in heavy ground cover, the new VX-II 1-4x20mm Shotgun model is great scope for anyone needing a fast target acquiring scope that is specially suited for closer range shots. The 75-yard parallax correction distance is factory set to match the closer target distances of shotgunners and muzzleloaders.

The VX-I 2-7x33mm Shotgun model is a versatile, mid-range magnification scope ideally matched to the needs of shotgunners, slug-gun hunters, and muzzleloaders. It is a highly adaptable scope that suits a variety of game requirements, be it deer in Pennsylvania or caribou in the Yukon. The 75-yard parallax correction distance is factory set to match the closer target distances of shotgunners and muzzleloaders.

For today's long ranged muzzleloaders and slug guns, this scope is a great choice. A heavier duplex reticle, and 75 yard parallax adjustment are nicely suited to typical hunting conditions and game. This is an ideal scope for both the beginner and the experienced, budget conscious hunter.

The economically priced Rifleman 2-7x33mm Shotgun/Muzzleloader is a versatile, mid-range magnification scope that is eminently suited to today's muzzleloaders and shotguns. Easily mounted close to the barrel due to its 33mm objective bell, it is excellent for those seeking a low profile optical sight for deer and turkey hunting.

The economically priced Rifleman 3-9x40mm is a descendant of the great 3-9x tradition started by Leupold more than 40 years ago. Its mid-range magnification levels and 75 yard parallax focus make it ideal for a wide range of shooting conditions and game. Perfect for today's longer ranged muzzleloaders and sabot firing shotguns!
