Leupold Black Friday Deals

Which Leupold Should You Buy?

The snapshot spans Leupold's range from entry-level to long-range. The VX-Freedom 3-9x40 is the straightforward whitetail scope. The VX-3HD 4.5-14x50 and VX-5HD 2-10x42 sit in the mid-premium tier, with the VX-5HD adding an illuminated FireDot reticle that helps in low light. At the far end, the Mark 5HD 5-25x56 with a 35mm tube and first focal plane reticle is built for precision shooters, and the VX-6HD Gen 2 3-18x56 targets hunters who want big magnification and twilight performance.

• VX-Freedom: the value pick for a first scope.
• VX-3HD and VX-5HD: better glass and turret options for serious hunting.
• Mark 5HD: for long-range or competition work.
• DeltaPoint Pro: a rugged red dot for pistols and carbines.

There are also BX-1 McKenzie HD binoculars, an RX-1400i TBR/W rangefinder, an RX-5000 and a pair of accessories, cross-slot rings and a flip-back lens cover.

Magnification is the first decision, then tube diameter and reticle. A bigger number is not always better, since high power narrows the field of view and makes a shaky rest more obvious.

When Do Leupold Deals Drop?

Among all the hunting-gear categories, scopes tend to be shopped well ahead of the season. Black Friday falls on November 27, Thanksgiving on November 26 and Cyber Monday on November 30. As of early November, Amazon had not published the dates for its own Black Friday Week, though it says early deals are live in the Holiday Shop now.

Leupold's pricing can differ by seller and by listing, so we check live Amazon prices daily and sort the grid by discount. If you are still comparing makers, our rifle scope and thermal optic Black Friday deals cover more of the market.
