With an impressive 8-48x magnification range and a large 60mm objective lens, this spotting scope delivers unmatched resolution and detail at extended distances.

Built to Leupold’s legendary standards of durability and optical excellence, the MX-6HD spotting scope is an ideal tool for spotting impacts, reading wind, and identifying targets at extreme ranges during Precision Rifle Series (PRS) competitions, ELR shooting, and long-range hunting applications.

Extreme 8-48x Magnification Range

The 8-48x magnification range on the Leupold MX-6HD spotting scope offers incredible versatility for long-range observation. At lower magnifications, the scope provides a wide field of view for quick target acquisition and situational awareness. When dialed up to 48x, shooters gain the ability to resolve fine details on targets at distances well beyond 1,000 yards. This extreme magnification makes the MX-6HD an outstanding choice for precision rifle competitors who need to spot bullet impacts and trace shots at maximum distances with absolute clarity.

Premium 60mm Objective Lens

The large 60mm objective lens maximizes light transmission, delivering bright, high-resolution images even in challenging low-light conditions. Combined with Leupold’s advanced lens coatings and high-definition optics, this spotting scope provides superior resolution, contrast, and color fidelity across the entire magnification range. The generous objective lens helps maintain a usable exit pupil at high magnifications, which is critical when spotting small targets or reading mirage at long range.

PR2-MIL Reticle for Precision Ranging

The Leupold MX-6HD features the PR2-MIL reticle, a versatile mil-based ranging reticle designed specifically for long-range precision shooting. The PR2-MIL reticle allows shooters to accurately measure targets, calculate distances, and make precise holdovers and wind corrections. Because it is placed in the first focal plane, the reticle subtensions remain accurate at every magnification setting, making it an essential tool for competitive shooters and tactical professionals who require reliable milling capabilities.

Flat Dark Earth Tactical Finish

The Flat Dark Earth (FDE) finish on the MX-6HD spotting scope provides a modern, low-visibility tactical appearance. This durable finish reduces glare and blends well with common camouflage patterns and tactical gear. The FDE color is highly popular among competitive shooters and professionals who want their equipment to maintain a professional, non-reflective look while withstanding harsh environmental conditions in the field.
