Discontinued Leupold

[ih784]

Good afternoon,

I’ve got a Leupold VX-R Patrol 1.25-4x25. This model has been discontinued and my windage turret is wobbling. I’m pretty sure it’s repairable. However, in the event that it’s beyond repair… what would the equivalent replacement be? (If anyone is unfamiliar with these, it’s a LPVO).

Wobbling, like if you took the turret cap off, you could tighten it?
Are you looking for a 4x max? The new leupold 1-4s are all mil turrets, the older patrol was moa but i think the newer ones may have mil also. You can still buy leupold 1-4s so that's probably the option or do q 1-6. I have a 1-6 vortex razor but it's spendier than than the leupold.

VX-3HD 1.5-5x20 CDS-ZL Duplex

The VX®-3HD 1.5-5x20mm delivers legendary performance and extreme clarity in an incredibly tough, lightweight package. It's the perfect workhorse for those close to mid-range shots.

I think the patrols were mil and moa (I think). The patrol I have is mil/mil. I’ve never had a turret cap off before with the exception of an SWFA lol. I’ll check it out though. I’ve never dealt with a discontinued product before. I didn’t want a cheap one of lesser quality than the one I currently have. Mind you, it’d be better than a broken scope.

Since Leupold has a 100% repair or replacement policy your first response should be to send it to them and let them tell you it can't be fixed. Then, they will recommend a replacement at no charge or a charge if you upgrade. Leupold stands behind their products and they are great to deal with.
