Leupold GR Spotting Scopes - 12-40x60mm HD Impact Reticle Shadow Gray

The Leupold® Gold Ring® 12-40x60mm HD Spotting Scope employs an Extra Low Dispersion Optical System to maximize color fidelity and contrast. This produces and incredible image across a wide field of view all with best in class eye relief for easy full field viewing with or without eyeglasses. The prism-less Folded Light Path (FLP) system uses mirrors to compress a long optical system into half its length. All this performance in a lightweight magnesium housing for the most packable optical power available.

• Digital camera compatible
• Xtended Twilight Lens System - Now your hunt can reach further into the twilight than ever before possible with our exclusive new Xtended Twilight Lens System•. It goes a step further than even the Index Matched Lens System® using Leupold•s® index matched glass with wavelength specific lens coatings designed to optimize the transmission of low-light wavelengths. When most scope manufacturers quote percentage of light transmission they usually mean at 550 nm the green wavelength where the human eye is most sensitive. The challenge is that in twilight conditions green light disappears and blue/violet light takes over. Your eye is already handicapped when it comes to seeing the blue/violet spectrum and if your scope is cutting too much of it out soon you won•t be seeing anything. The Xtended Twilight Lens System places extra emphasis on matching coatings to glass indices to achieve the best possible transmission of the blue/violet spectrum without sacrificing the color balanced light transmission across the visual spectrum of the Index Matched Lens System. When we combine that with superior computer-generated optical design lead-free lenses of unsurpassed clarity and quality and 100 years of manufacturing excellence you have a scope that gives you the details of low-light scenes in greater definition and luminance than any other scope in the world.
• Magnesium Housing
• Front Focal Plane (FFP) - The reticle magnifies along with the image so you can estimate range at all magnification settings. These reticles are ideal in tactical situations yet also provide greater accuracy of range estimation for hunters and target shooters.
• Proprietary Nitrogen Fill Process
• Folded Light Path
• Tripod Ready
• 100% Waterproof and Fog Proof
• DiamondCoat 2 - Exterior lens surfaces are treated with DiamondCoat 2• an ion-assist lens coating for higher light transmission and the greatest level of abrasion resistance we•ve ever offered. DiamondCoat already exceeds military standards for hardness and durability. DiamondCoat 2 offers unsurpassed durability and will prove its worth in the wildest places on earth. DiamondCoat 2 has the additional advantage of assisting in light transmission for greater brightness clarity and contrast.
