First released in 2017, the VX-6HD line was created for hunters that were looking for an optic with a wider range of magnification with low weight and top-tier glass. Offered in a number of mag ranges (1-6x, 2-12x, 3-18x, 4-24x), the VX-6HD was the top end of Leupold\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/get-first-second-focal-plane-riflescope\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-gold-ring-standard-leupold-vx-6hd-gen-2-review\" title=\"The Gold Ring Standard\u00a0 - Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 Review\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"377\">second focal plane hunting riflescope<\/a> lineup (in order of tiers, bottom to top: VX-Freedom, VX-3HD, VX-5HD, and VX-6HD). These optics sold in droves. While the vast majority that were shipped out of their Beaverton, Oregon plant were well received, <strong>some units experienced<\/strong> turret and reticle tracking issues. Standing by their products, Leupold repaired those that came in with issues. They also redesigned the internals to increase reliability in the second generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-has-remained-what-has-changed\">What has remained, what has changed?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From the outside, a quick glance at the VX-6HD Gen 2 scope presents an optic that appears almost identical to its Gen 1 predecessor. The most noticeable difference is Leupold\u2019s CDS-SZL2 zero-locking turrets, featuring their new SpeedSet dial system. The SpeedSet lever integrated into the elevation and windage turrets allows for toolless zeroing and resetting of the dials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Custom Dial System (CDS) works the same as previous models: Range your target, dial to that range value on the custom dial, and fire. No need to memorize MOA to Range values, or tape a range card to the side of your rifle.&nbsp; The included caps are labeled for, and adjustable in, \u00bc MOA click adjustments. In previous models, Leupold offered one free CDS cap, customized to your rifle\u2019s ballistics. With Gen 2, they are offering two free caps with each scope. Go on their website, input your ballistic data, and they will send you the dials marked in yardage increments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second most obvious difference is the integrated magnification throw lever\u2019s design. Gen 1\u2019s higher profile lever was a reversible\/removable option. The Gen 2 lever features a slightly lower profile and has rounded, knurled surfaces for better ergonomics and control with gloves in inclement weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"VX-6HD Gen 2 magnification throw lever\" class=\"wp-image-216071\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6884_1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 has a redesigned magnification throw lever that is both low-profile and very easy to manipulate thanks to its aggressive texturing.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-new-guts\">New Guts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The third and least noticeable, but perhaps most important difference is the actual shape around the turret erector assembly. The Gen 1 model featured squared off machining front and rear of the turrets. The Gen 2 featured a squared off front, but tapered shape just behind the turrets. This shape is not unlike Leupold\u2019s venerable Mark 5HD lineup, which has found and held its place alongside the most reliable first focal plane tactical riflescopes on the market. This is not by mistake. To increase reliability and tracking in the VX-6HD Gen 2 line, Leupold took the battle-proven Mark 5HD internals and engineered them into the VX-6HD\u2019s 30mm main tube diameter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does this redesign improve reliability, it actually increases overall elevation and windage travel by 10 MOA from Gen 1 to Gen 2. Despite all of these significant changes, they result in an insignificant increase of 0.5 ounces on average over the previous models. Speaking of reliability, the VX-6HD Gen 2 features gas purged and sealed internals, rated to be 100% waterproof, fog-proof, and shock-proof.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"erector tube on Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 rifle scope\" class=\"wp-image-216067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6875.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The redesign of the Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 erector tube shape follows a design not unlike the venerable Mark 5HD Line.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vx-6hd-gen-2-additional-features\">VX-6HD Gen 2 Additional Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Offered in the same magnification ranges mentioned above, the external dimensions are essentially the same. Glass remains the same Professional-Grade Optical System glass used in the VX-5HD, VX-6HD, Mark 4, and Mark 5 lines. For this generation, they have upgraded the Guard-Ion coatings to offer enhanced transmission in low light, as well as better resistance to scratches, fingerprints and oils. When in transport, lenses are further protected by the integrated Alumina-Flip Back lens covers carried over from Gen 1. These aluminum caps feature magnetic and friction retention to stay closed, and have easily accessible push tabs for quick opening. The caps are spring loaded and dampened, making their opening fast and quiet. Added to the Gen 2 lineup is the 3-18x56mm option. It offers even better low light performance to those who need it most.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-side-focus-dials\">Side Focus Dials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Side focus dials also carry over from the previous generation, as well as adjustable illuminated reticles. These illuminated reticles can run for hours on a single CR2032 battery. They feature Leupold\u2019s Motion Sensor Technology (MST). This turns the reticle off after five minutes of inactivity, but immediately back on as soon as movement is detected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reticle-lever\">Reticle Lever<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great feature Leupold carried over to Gen 2 is the electronic reticle level. Serious long range shooters know that a few degrees of cant is all that is needed to throw a shot off target at distance. Hunting in steep terrain can cause an unlevel scope to appear level. Once activated, the illuminated reticle will flash when the rifle and scope are more than 1\u00b0 out of level. Once within that 1\u00b0 tolerance, the illuminated reticle remains solid red. While I personally prefer the redundancy of a scope-mounted bubble level, I found the reticle level a nice feature to avoid having to take my eyes out of my field of view when shooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mounting-and-data-collection\">Mounting and Data Collection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I mounted the scope in Leupold\u2019s 30mm medium Backcountry cross-slot rings. They weighed in at only 2.52 ounces for the pair. Zeroing the 3-18x44mm VX-6HD Gen 2 rifle scope on my <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/search?keyword=300%20prc%20rifle\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-gold-ring-standard-leupold-vx-6hd-gen-2-review\" title=\"The Gold Ring Standard\u00a0 - Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 Review\">300 PRC rifle<\/a> was a breeze, thanks to the toolless turret caps. After gathering ballistic data on the rifle firing factory 212 gr Hornady ELD-X loads, I ordered one of my free CDS dials. Five days later, I had the new cap in hand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"rifle scope dial VX-6HD Gen 2\" class=\"wp-image-216073\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6892-Enhanced-NR.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 CDS dials feature the Speedset locking levers.

I knew the distances to the targets from many previous trips. Therefore I just dialed the turrets to their corresponding mark (2 for 200yds, 3.5 for 350 yds, 4.5 for 450 yds, and so on). Targets averaged the size of deer vital zones or smaller. All of the data tracked with its respective turret mark. There was no mistaking the standard and factory turret caps, as Leupold laser engraves all of your rifle\u2019s data onto the cap. Thanks to the tool less cap locks, if I am in a new location or the weather is significantly off from my custom cap, I can swap back to the factory MOA cap and use my ballistic calculator to make adjustments on sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The optic\u2019s clarity was tack sharp, and even at distance, spotting impacts was easy. Turret adjustments were tactical, but quiet; and the reticle tracked accurately through the elevation adjustments. I did like the internal reticle level indicator, but it took a bit to figure out which direction the rifle was canted, as it does not indicate left or right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"man and a rifle outdoors\" class=\"wp-image-216062\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/A12I6821-Enhanced-NR.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 is a lightweight and rugged scope that brings minimal weight and substantial magnification to my already heavy 300 PRC rifle.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-thoughts\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Developed to be the pinnacle of <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-hunting-scopes-how-to-choose-and-use-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-gold-ring-standard-leupold-vx-6hd-gen-2-review\" title=\"The Gold Ring Standard\u00a0 - Leupold VX-6HD Gen 2 Review\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"378\">hunting optics<\/a>, the VX-6HD Gen 2 price range is on the higher end, from $1,999.99 for the 1-6x24mm, to $2,699.99 for the 4-24x52mm with the illuminated TMOA reticle. This 3-18x44mm I have in hand with the Duplex reticle retails for $2,299.99. This puts the price point just under that of the Mark 5HD line. This makes sense, given Mark 5-type internals, the 6:1 zoom ratio, and its feature-rich design. Its lightweight and rugged construction is built to handle the harshest environments. Its premium glass and coatings make shots at the very end of shooting hours possible. I know a riflescope in this price range isn\u2019t for everyone.
