BEAVERTON, Ore. --(Ammoland.com)- Boar hunters take note: Leupold’s new VX-HOG riflescope features an exclusive Pig Plex reticle for fast target acquisition and precise shot placement.

The VX-HOG is a 1.25-4x20mm riflescope, well suited for the terrain and conditions typical of wild boar country. Its Pig Plex reticle is calibrated to frame up a mature hog and provide just the right amount of lead on running boars.

“We are a sponsor of Brian ‘Pig Man’ Quaca, who inspired us to design riflescopes for passionate hog hunters,” commented Pat Mundy, communications manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “With the VX-HOG, hog hunters everywhere are rigged for pig and ready for close-range, fast-paced action.”

The VX-HOG has Leupold’s Quantum Optical System, which includes lead-free, precision-ground and polished lenses with Leupold’s exclusive Multicoat 4 coatings for enhanced resolution, clarity and contrast. Carefully positioned in optimum relationship to each other, the lenses deliver up to 92 percent total light transmission.

Other features include finger-adjustable, ¼-MOA click windage and elevation dials that allow quick zeroing and easy adjustment in the field. The power selector ring incorporates a tactile indicator, making it easy to grasp and turn even while wearing gloves. A fast-focus eyepiece with a low-profile lock ring makes reticle focus easy to achieve and maintain.

The VX-HOG sports modern styling with a special “HOG” logo highlighting the exterior design. Like all Golden Ring riflescopes, the VX-HOG is waterproof, shockproof and fog proof.

Built for rugged use with a one-inch maintube manufactured from 6061-T6 aircraft-quality aluminum alloy, the VX-HOG is covered by Leupold’s Full Lifetime Guarantee.

BEAVERTON, Ore. --(Ammoland.com)- Designed specifically for crossbow hunting, Leupold’s new Crossbones scope features an exclusive reticle integrated with a special power selector to maximize shooting accuracy.

The power selector is calibrated in velocity rather than magnification, allowing the hunters to easily match the ballistic profile of their arrows to the exclusive Crossbones Ballistic Reticle (CBR).

“Our CBR reticle is ideally suited to the function and power of today’s modern crossbow,” said Pat Mundy, communications manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “The power selector ring allows shooters to effortlessly adjust to their arrow velocity and calibrate the CBR for the arrow at the same time.”

A 2-7x33mm scope, Crossbones offers all the optical performance and ruggedness typical of Golden Ring® riflescopes. Another key feature is Leupold’s Quantum Optical System™, which includes lead-free, precision-ground and polished lenses with Leupold’s exclusive Multicoat 4® coatings for enhanced resolution, clarity and contrast. Carefully positioned in optimum relationship to each other, the lenses deliver up to 92 percent total light transmission.

Finger-adjustable, ¼-MOA click windage and elevation dials allow quick zeroing and fine tuning in the field. The power selector ring incorporates a tactile indicator, making it easy to grasp and turn even while wearing gloves. A fast-focus eyepiece with a low-profile lock ring makes reticle focus easy to achieve and maintain.

Crossbones is waterproof, shockproof and fog proof. The scope is built for rugged use with a matte black one-inch maintube manufactured from 6061-T6 aircraft-quality aluminum alloy. It is covered by Leupold’s Full Lifetime Guarantee.

Weighing 9.9 ounces and measuring 11.3 inches in length, Crossbones sports modern styling with a gold-plated Leupold medallion highlighting the exterior design.
