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.”
