Leupold VX-5HD
When I set out for a week in the Rockies, I needed a scope that could handle both close-range shots and extend to 500 yards. That’s when I decided to try out the Leupold VX-5HD. Its 3-15x magnification felt like the perfect balance—giving me clarity on distant shots without the bulk of a larger scope. What impressed me the most was Leupold’s Twilight Max HD Light Management System, which kept my sight clear even in the low light of early dawn and dusk. Plus, the Custom Dial System (CDS) made adjusting for long shots a breeze. In tough terrain, this scope stood up to it all—proving it’s built for serious hunters looking for reliable performance.
ATN X-Sight II HD
The ATN X-Sight II HD 5-20x scope is a versatile, high-tech optic designed for day and night hunting. With Smart HD Optics Technology, it delivers crystal-clear images regardless of lighting conditions, while the 5-20x smooth zoom allows for precise magnification adjustments. The built-in Ballistic Calculator and Smart Range Finder simplify long-range and angled shots, automatically adjusting the Point of Impact for maximum accuracy. This scope lets you record your adventures in 1080p HD, with Recoil Activated Video (RAV) ensuring you capture every moment. It also supports Wi-Fi streaming, turning your phone or tablet into a live viewfinder. Additional features like the ATN X-Trac Remote Control, long-range IR illuminator, and extended battery pack make the X-Sight II HD a powerful, all-in-one tool for modern hunters.
