Leupold VX6-HD CDS-ZL2 3-18x50

Data Provenance

Who tested: Rokslide field eval (2025-08) — read the original write-up, which is the source of record. Who structured it: Optics Intel. We extract outcomes and cite; the testing labor is theirs.

Sample size: 1 (single serial number — second VX6-HD config evaluated) — evidence about this unit, not a verdict on every unit shipped.

Mount setup

Notes
