Leupold & Stevens, Inc., has announced the addition of five new ‘AR’ riflescopes to its award winning VX-Freedom line. Featuring milliradian adjustments and reticles, the new offerings are all pre-calibrated for the incredibly popular .223 cartridge.

Five new AR scopes are joining the VX-Freedom family in 2020. They include a 1.5-4x20 (30mm) with 223 Mil Illuminated FireDot MIL-Ring reticle, a 3-9x40 (1 inch) with 223 Mil TMR, a 4-12x40 (1 inch) with 223 Mil TMR, a 4-12x40 (30mm) 223 Mil Side Focus TMR, and a 6-18x40 (30mm) with 223 Mil Side Focus TMR.

“The VX-Freedom line is designed to deliver a scope for every possible use case or scenario,” said Vici Peters, Product Line Manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “If you’re setting up your AR-style rifle, you’re probably shooting .223 and looking for a Mil-based solution. The new VX-Freedom AR scopes deliver a pre-calibrated setup and adjustments you’re going to want, all in an affordable package that’s been designed, machined, and assembled in the very same building as the well-known Mark 5HD and Mark 8.”

All five models feature either a .223 ballistic dial or a .223 ballistic reticle, exposed 0.1-Mil adjustments, and Mil-based reticles.

The VX-Freedom line is built to deliver relentless reliability and versatility – military-spec lens coatings provide abrasion resistance, protecting the riflescope in the most challenging terrain. An ergonomically advanced power selector ring is low-profile, but provides exceptional grip and ease of use, even in the cold, wet, or when wearing gloves.

VX-Freedom riflescopes also deliver excellent performance in low-light situations and are exceptional at glare management, thanks to the proprietary Leupold Twilight Light Management System. A combination of lens coatings and physical design elements in the riflescope itself, the Twilight Light Management System helps hunters make the most of low-light conditions found at dawn and dusk.

Like all of Leupold’s riflescopes, the VX-Freedom is designed, machined, and assembled in the United States and backed by Leupold’s legendary Lifetime Guarantee.
