New Leupold

Post by Rifletom » Mon Dec 30, 2019 4:46 pm

I just saw a Leupold VX-1 2-7x33mm shotgun scope with heavy duplex, matte finish for $147. New. Snagged it! It'll go on either my mod94 30-30 or my .45 Colt Henry[probably]. Both are scoped, but, this will be an up-grade I'm sure. Couldn't pass it up.

Sounds perfect for the .45 Colt. Good Score!

Nice find. That should match up with that .45 Colt just about right.

Hey Evan! How you been? Yeah, when I get it here, I'll send you some pics. Probably go on the .45, as this Leupold is an inch shorter and a more slimmed down build than the 1.5-4.5x32 I have on it now. Happy New Year everyone!

Good pick, can't go wrong with the VX series scopes.

Ok, received the Leupold about a half hour ago. Mounted on the .45 Henry and what an improvement! Lighter, slimmed down and clear as a bell.
Will try and get back out to try ASAP.
