#Vortex scope series
Some Leupold fans could argue that the VX-3i series was also an “entry-level” series for Leupold, but this series was phased out at the end of 2020, so it’s kind of a moot point.Ĭombined, the Vortex Sonora, Copperhead, Crossfire II, Diamondback, and Diamondback Tactical models feature 40 different scope models, while the Leupold FX and VX-Freedom series feature 27 models. However, Leupold has phased both of those series out, and their new entry-level scope series are the FX fixed power models and the VX-Freedom series. With Vortex, using the $500 MSRP limit, their entry-level lines are the Sonora, Copperhead, Crossfire II, Diamondback, and Diamondback Tactical models.įor the longest time, Leupold’s entry-level series was the Rifleman and VX-1 series of riflescopes. However, since Leupold has some models in one of their entry-level series that goes all the way up to $499, I increased the price range for this category up to the $500 mark. Typically, for the entry-level scope classification, I use riflescopes with a price range up to $350. Let’s look at comparing both brands within each category: Entry Level Scopes (Up to $500)īoth Leupold and Vortex match up well in this category, offering several entry-level scope models or families. When you start trying to compare riflescope brand to riflescope brand, I’ve always thought the fairest way was to loosely break the scopes offered by each brand into broad categories as some scope brands have a huge product offering while other brands may have a much smaller product offering. The topics that I usually focus on with these types of comparisons are the following: When comparing two different riflescope brands or makers, it’s essential to focus on comparing features or aspects that seem to be the more critical topics for comparison. A common request that I’m asked at my day job (and online) is to compare Leupold vs Vortex against one another at the brand level.
Given the popularity of both brands, it only makes sense that prospective scope buyers have a number of questions about each brand. Both brands offer a variety of models to suit different rifles, budgets, and shooting needs. When discussing U.S.-based riflescope brands, the two most well-known brands are (arguably) Leupold and Vortex. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of, Inc, or its affiliates.
