To be sure, the Golden Ring® scope you now own is the finest example of Leupold heritage. Frederick Leupold came to Portland, Oregon, from Germany in 1907, and quickly established a firm to manufacture and repair surveying transits. Fred’s son, Marcus, broadened the company’s focus in the late 1930s after the avid outdoorsman missed a buck on the soggy western slopes of Oregon’s Cascade Range. (His scope had fogged, as was common for scopes of that era.) Frustrated by the experience, Marcus set out to build a better scope. The rest, as they say, is history. Marcus Leupold’s quest for quality has continued on to the present. In the words of the firm’s founder, Frederick Leupold, “We solemnly promise never to let down on quality; the customer is entitled to a square deal.” This is why we build every Leupold Golden Ring product to be worthy of the Leupold Full Lifetime Guarantee. It’s the best customer protection in the business, and it’s the best way we know to thank you for buying Leupold. Know Your Scope Know your Scope Parts of the scope Riflescopes have become far more sophisticated over the years, but the four most basic parts have remained the same. Working from front to back they are: 1. The objective lens (or front lens) is critical to a superior sight picture. 2. The internal erector lenses which right the image. 3. The reticle, often referred to as the crosshair, provides the aiming point. 4. The ocular lens (or eyepiece lens) works with the other lenses to magnify the image, provide correct eye relief, and make diopter corrections. 4 7 5 3 6 2 1 How scopes work As light passes through and beyond the objective lens, the resulting upside down image is sent to the internal lenses. Known as erector lenses, these internal lenses return the image to a right-side-up position. Finally, the ocular lens makes a final enlargement of that image and sends it on to your eye. Your Leupold scope was designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure that, when properly mounted and sighted-in on your firearm, you will enjoy exceptional performance. A solid mount is critical to satisfactory performance of your scope. If you have problems or questions, please contact Leupold Product Service (see page 39). 10 9 8 1 Objective Lens 2 Windage Adjustment (opposite side of scope) 3 Elevation Adjustment 4 Erector Lenses 5 Power Selector Ring 6 Eyepiece Lock Ring 7 Ocular Lens 8 Eyepiece Assembly 9 Reticle Housing 10 Side Parallax Adjustment How to Install the Scope How to Install the Scope The lower the scope, the better A scope mounted close to the rifle ensures proper cheek weld on the stock for a stable firing position and allows for rapid target acquisition. We recommend using the lowest possible ring height. No specific clearance is required, but the scope must clear the bolt handle, hammer (on lever actions and handguns), sights, and barrel. When installed, be sure that your scope does not interfere with firearm operation and does not contact anything except the mount rings. Please read this entire handbook before mounting your scope. CAUTION Always check and be certain that the firearm is unloaded before undertaking any work upon it. Installing the base, rings, and scope Please refer to the instructions included with the base and rings for their proper installation on the firearm. If necessary, it is safe to position the rear mount ring directly on the exposed threaded area near the eyepiece, but only after focusing the eyepiece. This allows a more forward placement of the scope. See page 8 for more details. NOTE: The windage and elevation adjustments on new Leupold scopes are centered as part of the assembly process. If you are mounting a scope that was previously mounted on another rifle, you should center the adjustments (please see “Zeroing Windage and Elevation Adjustments” on page 20 for more details). NOTE: Use care in mounting the 2.5x28mm Scout riflescope. It is necessary to place the back edge of the rearmost ring at least 3/4" forward of the ocular bell/tube juncture to avoid possible reticle damage. Because of the longer eye relief of this product, mounting the scope back slightly will not in any way impair its function or effectiveness. Establishing eye relief on rifles and shotguns Because of the safety considerations associated with proper eye relief, Leupold strongly recommends that you mount your scope as far forward as possible. Beyond that, follow these steps: 1. With...
