VX3L CDS Leupold
« on: October 02, 2011, 07:29:28 PM »
Anyone have one? Mine will be here tomorrow, I have to send in the info for the CDS turret, dont see alot of info, but that I do find it sounds like praise.  Anyone here? Bolting it onto my 7mm mag Tikka tomorrow after work!

I have one (4.5-14x40) on my 7 mag Tikka.  I like it.  The low profile knob is nice.
I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.

Oh yeah, mine will be the 4.5-14 x 50

Anyone have any tips on getting the CDS fast? My brothers took 4 weeks to arrive, hope I can get mine faster than that somehow...

Mine took about week and a half.  Came USPS, this was only about 3 weeks ago.

I called mine in.  Figured it would save some time.

Ok, got the scope, called leupold, sat on hold quite a while, gave them the info, they said they are slammed. So I probably wont get it in time for my hunting season since it starts next weekend, but we will see!

Scope is mounted, will sight it in after work.

Now, anyone find a good front scope cover for this thing?

The alumina covers from Leupold are really nice. I have them on my VX-3 and I love them. They make them for the VX-3L also. They screw in to the end and are held closed with magnets. They open easily and quietly. Great quality.

Oh man, but those things are $100... I was hoping a more normal place made something affordable for them.
