    Clearly designed just to take advantage of some shooting game rules, though a "tactical" version of that reticle would interest me. A #4 combined with a ring or horseshoe and a couple of BDC or MIL hashes for range would be an improvement for loss of illumination.

    Leupold still needs something above the Freedom and below the MK6.
    A true 1x4 that stays 12oz, with a rotary knob firedot, would be a compelling option for those of us not chasing 11.

    See the post above you.

    It is NOT a 1.5-4.5x.

    It is a 1-4x.

    The VX Freedom AR is a 1.5-4. Not seeing anything on the Leupold site that's a 1x until the various XV5/6 offerings.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

    It’s not a 1.5x.

    It is a 1x. Somebody else found a link to the 2020 catalog. It’s in there. I don’t see it on the Leupold site under scopes yet.

    I'll keep an eye peeled. It'll probably be common knowledge in a couple more days.

    You posed a pic of the service rifle scope, not me. And it's 1x NOT 1.5x.

    There are apparently two. 1.5-4.5 and 1-4x.

    I really hope that is correct.

    Not sure if that is promising or even more crushing than before I looked at it.

    There is no VX-R line in the catalog.

    It's either getting updated but not released yet... or completely dropped.

    I assume it is all being lumped into the VX Freedom stuff. But who knows?
