Know
Your Scope
Riflescopes have become far more sophisticated
over the years, but the four
most basic parts have remained the same. Working from front to back they are:
1. The objective lens (or front lens) is critical to a superior sight picture.
2. The internal erector lenses which right the image.
3. The reticle, often referred to as the crosshair, provides the aiming point.
4. The ocular lens (or eyepiece lens) works with the other lenses to magnify
the image, provide correct eye relief, and make diopter corrections.
HOW
As light passes through

and beyond the objective lens, the resulting upside

NOTE: The windage and elevation adjustments on new Leupold scopes are
centered as part of the assembly process. If you are mounting a scope that was
previously mounted on another rifle, you should center the adjustments (please
see "Centering Windage and Elevation Adjustments" on page 17 for more details).
NOTE: Use care in mounting
the 2.5x28mm
Scout riflescope. It is necessary to
place the back edge of the rearmost ring at least 3/4" forward of the ocular
bell/tube juncture to avoid possible reticle damage. Because of the longer eye
relief of this product, mounting the scope back slightly will not in any way impair
its function or effectiveness.

Leupold riflescopes are
engineered to provide

eye relief, depending
on the model and the
magnification level.
WARNING
If a scope is mounted too far to the rear, the eyepiece can injure the
shooter's brow. Shooting at an uphill angle also increases this hazard
because it shortens the distance between the brow and the rear of
the scope. For this reason, Leupold scopes are engineered to provide
generous eye relief. Therefore, when mounting your scope, we
recommend positioning it as far forward in the mounts as possible
to take full advantage of this generous eye relief

The eye relief of handgun
scopes is more forgiving
than that of riflescopes
Nevertheless, it is
important that the eye relief
is compatible with
your shooting style.
Unlike
riflescopes, adjustments to the eyepiece in handgun scopes affect the
eye relief as well as the reticle focus. Turning the eyepiece clockwise increases
eye relief and turning it counterclockwise
decreases it.
COMPLETING THE INSTAllATION
1. Without
disturbing the optimal eye relief position, rotate the scope until
the elevation adjustment dial is at the top of the scope.
2. From a firing position, check to be sure that the vertical hair of the reticle
aligns with the vertical axis of the firearm. Misalignment
will not affect
accuracy at moderate distances but it can diminish long range accuracy.
3. When

and securely.
THE RETICLE
Secure the scope and firearm in a firm rest. Point the scope at a light colored
background object. With the scope approximately
four inches from your eye
the reticle should appear sharp and crisp; if it does not, it is necessary to adjust
the focus by means of the eyepiece.

If your Leupold scope is one of our models with an eyepiece that has a lock
ring, follow these simple steps:
1. Grasp the eyepiece with your hand and back it away from the lock ring.
Once the lock ring is free from the eyepiece, turn it clockwise away from
the eyepiece to keep it out of the way during the adjustment.
2. If you tend to hold things away from yourself to see them clearly (you are
farsighted) turn the eyepiece counterclockwise
by a couple of turns. If you
hold things close to yourself to see them clearly (you are nearsighted) turn
the eyepiece clockwise by a couple of turns.
3. Looking through the scope when pointed at the sky, take a few quick
glances at the reticle. The focus of the reticle should be noticeably
different
from when you started. Continue this process until the reticle
appears clear and sharp.
4. When you are satisfied with the image of the reticle, turn the lock ring so
that it rests firmly against the eyepiece.
If your Leupold scope is one of our models without
an eyepiece lock ring,
follow these simple steps:
1. All adjustment

allows the shooter to know the original zero of the rifle in the event that
further adjustments are made in the field.
To reposition the dials on Rifleman'M, VX'M-I, and FX'M-Imodels, place a coin or
screwdriver in the slot in the numbered dial and rotate it so that the zero

What You Should Know
About Variable Power Scopes
Leupold variable power scopes allow you to select from a range of magnifications
to suit your particular rifle, cartridge, and shooting needs.
WARNING: Do not loosen the screw in the power selector ring. Doing so will
release the internal nitrogen that keeps the scope fog free. Loosening the
screw will also disconnect a pin that controls the internal operations,
causing
other problems that would require factory repairs. Do not lubricate the power
selector ring; doing so is unnecessary.
All variable power scopes have a power selector ring in front of the eyepiece
assembly. Turn the ring to align the number indicating
the desired magnification
with the indicator on the body of the scope.
RANGE
ESTIMATING
WITH
VX-III
SCOPES
Selected VX-III scopes have a built-in range estimator. This system uses the
Duplex. reticle in combination
with an additional
set of numbers on the power
selector ring. (Also see the Leupold Range Estimating Reticle Instructions for
other reticle types.) In scopes with this feature the space between the tip of the
thicker post of the Duplex reticle and the center of the reticle covers 16 inches
at 200 yards (the size of a Whitetail
buck from backbone to brisket).
NOTE: The Duplex reticle was designed to estimate ranges based on the backbone
to brisket dimension of a Whitetail buck. The distance of other game with a body
dimension that is known to be 16 inches (or 32 inches if the measurement is taken
from post to post instead of post
to crosshair) may certainly be
estimated.

It occurs when

This can cause a small shift in the point of aim.
Maximum
parallax occurs when your eye is at the very edge of the exit pupil.
(Even in this unlikely event, our 4x hunting
maximum
scope focused for 150 yards has a
error of only 8/10ths of an inch at 500 yards.)
At short distances,
the parallax effect does not affect accuracy. (Using the same
4x scope at 100 yards, the maximum
also good to remember
error is less than 211Oths of an inch.) It is
that, as long as you are sighting
straight through
the
middle of the scope, or close to it, parallax will have virtually no effect on
accuracy in a hunting

All Leupold Illuminated
the illuminated
Reticle
Reticle scopes may be used in either the standard or
state. When not illuminated,
the reticle performs the same as
the reticle in a standard Leupold scope. Illuminating
the reticle allows a better
distinction to be made in poorly lighted conditions between the target and the
precise position of the aiming point.
The control dial for the Leupold
Illuminated Reticle is located
above the eyepiece.
To illuminate the reticle:
1. Grasp the illumination
dial located at the top of the eyepiece shell.
2. Turn the dial clockwise from the OFF position to the first number indicated
on the dial.
3. View the target through the scope to determine if the reticle is bright
enough to stand out clearly against the target.
4. If more illumination
is required, continue turning the dial clockwise until
the reticle is clearly visible against the target.
To preserve the life of the battery, always remember to turn the illumination
dial
to the OFF position when the scope is not in use. For prolonged storage, remove
the battery.
If the reticle fails to illuminate or appears dim even on the highest illumination
setting, it is necessary to change the battery.
WARNING: Always check to ensure that the firearm is unloaded before
changing the battery in the scope.

the Battery
Reticle scopes use a 3-volt lithium photo battery.
See page 32.
To change the battery:
1. Remove the battery cover by grasping its edge (located around the top of
the illumination
dial) and twisting the cover counterclockwise while holding
the sides of the illumination
dial to keep the entire dial from turning.
2. Remove the old battery from its position in the center of the dial.

This
can be done
in two
ways:
a. Grasp the edges of the battery between the thumb and forefinger
and lift it free of the dial.
OR
b. Turn the scope so that the illumination
dial faces downward
and
gently tap the eyepiece against the edge of your palm.
3. Insert the new battery, positive (+) side up.
4. Replace the battery cover on the illumination

TIPS
Before you ship a scope back to the factory for service or repair, please check
the following
items to make sure that the problem
is really with the scope and
not the rifle or mount system.
1. Check the mount.
Make sure the scope is mounteu
securely to the
rifle. Try, with bare hands only, to twist the scope in the rings or see if
anything
moves when you jiggle it. If there is any movement,
