Hunters in HOG Heaven Over Leupold’s New Riflescope

Boar hunters take note: Leupold’s new VX-HOG riflescope features an exclusive Pig Plex reticle for fast target acquisition and precise shot placement.

The VX-HOG is a 1.25-4x20mm riflescope, well suited for the terrain and conditions typical of wild boar country.  Its Pig Plex reticle is calibrated to frame up a mature hog and provide just the right amount of lead on running boars.

“We are a sponsor of Brian ‘Pig Man’ Quaca, who inspired us to design riflescopes for passionate hog hunters,” commented Pat Mundy, communications manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc.  “With the VX-HOG, hog hunters everywhere are rigged for pig and ready for close-range, fast-paced action.”

The VX-HOG has Leupold’s Quantum Optical System, which includes lead-free, precision-ground and polished lenses with Leupold’s exclusive Multicoat 4 coatings for enhanced resolution, clarity and contrast.  Carefully positioned in optimum relationship to each other, the lenses deliver up to 92 percent total light transmission.

Other features include finger-adjustable, ¼-MOA click windage and elevation dials that allow quick zeroing and easy adjustment in the field.  The power selector ring incorporates a tactile indicator, making it easy to grasp and turn even while wearing gloves.  A fast-focus eyepiece with a low-profile lock ring makes reticle focus easy to achieve and maintain.

The VX-HOG sports modern styling with a special “HOG” logo highlighting the exterior design.  Like all Golden Ring riflescopes, the VX-HOG is waterproof, shockproof and fog proof.

Built for rugged use with a one-inch maintube manufactured from 6061-T6 aircraft-quality aluminum alloy, the VX-HOG is covered by Leupold’s Full Lifetime Guarantee.

    I’ll stick with my Mk 4 16X power Scope I purchased in 1992, and its still going strong. I am a former SRT Serria-1 sniper for 9 yrs. The reason only 9 yrs. New Sheriff disolved our SRT in 2001. Also, as a  law enforcement sniper instructor and `some` students that brought questionable weapons and optics that were very capable of quilifing but didn’t have the stuff to do it were allowed to use my Howa .308 w/ Answer Product compensator and Leupold Mrk. 4 16 X fixed scope . They made a 90% better score than before to complete and PASS the course. That course being 50 hrs in 5 days. Later it became 60 hrs in 5 days.
