ABOUT THE MODEL (VX‑3HD 2.5–8×36 CDS‑ZL)

The VX‑3HD 2.5–8×36 CDS‑ZL is perfect for hunters who prioritize lightweight handling and adaptability. It features the CDS‑ZL dial system—zeroed to your ballistic load—allowing instant range-specific elevation settings without math. The 36 mm objective keeps the scope compact while delivering crisp, bright images from early dawn to dusk.

Reticle options include ballistic (e.g. Long Range MOA, TMOA) and traditional hunting reticles, with a push-button, motion-sensing LED illumination. The 25 mm tube allows full internal adjustment, and a paired ZeroLock windage turret ensures consistent return-to-zero even in harsh field use.
