Leupold VX Freedom or the 3HD
« on: February 12, 2025, 07:15:01 PM »
Hi everyone. I acquired an Interarms Mark X 30.06 and need to put a new scope on it. Just wondering your thoughts between a VX Freedom 3x9 CDS or the 3.5 X 10 3HD CDS from Leupold. Is the 3HD worth the extra $100? Thank you in advance.

V/r,
Tim

Both are nice scopes
I use both on my rifles
I can’t afford the high dollar stuff
And I like Leupold

 Can’t speak to the Freedom, but I bought the 3HD 3.5-10 CDS this past season and I love it. The view is so clear. The only down side is it made me realize I need new binoculars this year.

Depending on what you expect to do with it… I’ve put a few freedoms on kids guns and they have been great
