Leupold & Stevens, Inc. has announced the launch of its new SX-2 Alpine HD spotting scope. Two models are currently available, both in an angled configuration. One is a 20X-60X-80mm, while the other is a 20X-60X-80mm.

Crucial for low-light conditions, these new spotters come with the Twilight Max Light Management System, which intensifies ambient light in extreme low-light environments, and provides glare management to reduce image wash-out. Diamondcoat lenses are scratch-resistant to stand up to the roughest conditions, while high-definition lens coatings provide bright, clear images, and its Guard-ion lens coating sheds dirt and water with ease.  A generous eyebox, meanwhile, helps eliminate eye-strain and fatigue, while an oversized eyepiece ensures comfortable viewing all day long. Finally, a rotating tripod adjustment ring allows for more flexibility when glassing large areas. 

“The SX-2 Alpine HD delivers exactly what hunters and shooters want in a spotting scope, and it does it in a price class that you’re not going to be able to beat,” said Zach Bird, product line manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “Our in-house optical engineers are working every day here in Beaverton, Ore., to bring consumers the product quality they deserve, and the SX-2 is the perfect example – it’s lightweight, rugged, clear, and exactly what you’ll need whether you’re spending the day at the range or heading out in the field.”

Alligator Hunting Opportunities Are Expanding

This year, both Florida and Louisiana are expanding or introducing new opportunities for alligator hunts. For decades, Florida has estimated that there are over one million in the state—it is, of course, hard to count alligators. Louisiana now says its alligator population exceeds three million. The two states have managed their alligator populations very differently over the last half century, but now both are expanding hunting opportunities to help manage alligator populations.
