Leupold® Reduces Prices on RCX™ Trail Camera Systems

BEAVERTON, Ore. - With hunting season on the horizon, Leupold® is lowering the price on its line of award-winning RCX™ Trail Camera Systems and Kits.

The RCX Trail Camera System features innovative technology that simplifies the process of taking and retrieving images of game in the field. The RCX-1 Camera will now have an MSRP of $199.99, with the RCX-1 Kit at $229.99. The RCX-2 Camera will be $229.99 MSRP, with the RCX-2 Kit at $249.99.

"Now is the time for hunters and guides to be scouting out the hot spots," said Kevin Trepa, Leupold's vice president for global sales and business development. "The RCX system makes it easy to setup and check on your cameras in the field. Now, it's more affordable, as well."

Named an "Editor's Choice" by the staff of Petersen's Hunting, the RCX Trail Camera System offers fast set-up, easy maintenance and outstanding image quality.

The "hub" of the system is the USB controller/viewer, which plugs into either a RCX-1 (eight megapixels) or RCX-2 (10 megapixels) camera. The controller/viewer has a three-inch display screen, and can be used to download and view images from the camera on the spot, eliminating the need to remove photo/SD cards and check them at another location. With the controller/viewer, users can also get real-time alignment of the camera's view and instant access to all program settings, without opening the camera or removing it from the mount.

Leupold RCX Trail Camera Systems can be found at dealers around the country, and at major retail outlets including Cabela's, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shops, Dick's Sporting Goods, Academy Sports + Outdoors and Scheels.

Leupold® Expands RX® Line of Compact Digital Laser Rangefinders

FullDraw Model Designed Specifically for Archers

BEAVERTON, Ore. — Leupold® has expanded its RX® line of compact digital laser rangefinders for hunters and shooters with four new models: RX-800i, RX-800i TBR®, RX-600i and, designed specifically for archers, RX-FullDraw.

“These new rangefinders are ideal for the serious bowhunter,” commented Pat Mundy, senior marketing manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “Their compact size and rugged construction make for easy and reliable use in the field, and they deliver the precision and accuracy necessary to make the most difficult shots considerably less daunting.”

At just over four inches in length and weighing seven ounces or less, each model fits in a shirt pocket, yet is packed with features that can help users confirm desired targets, shoot with confidence and boost their effective range. Each model features DNA (Digitally eNhanced Accuracy), Leupold’s exclusive next-generation rangefinder engine technology that delivers superior ranging speed and accuracy to within 1/2 yard out to 125 yards, regardless of target color. In addition, DNA enhances ranging dependability against soft, non-reflective targets such as deer and trees.

The RX-800i, RX-800i TBR and RX-FullDraw also offer Trophy Scale, a feature that allows hunters to determine if the animal’s rack measures up to the desired spread size. With Trophy Scale, users can instantly and accurately judge the width and/or height of the target after setting the preferred baseline measurement (between 10 and 60 inches).

To help ensure an accurate shot on that trophy animal, the RX-800i TBR and RX-FullDraw have Leupold’s proven True Ballistic Range® (TBR) technology. These units can automatically calculate the shot angle and provide the True Ballistic Range rather than the straight-line distance to the target. With Trig, a new function of the RX-800i TBR, users can also determine the height or length of objects.

The RX-FullDraw’s TBR provides archers with accurate aiming ranges to 175 yards regardless of angle, and delivers line-of-sight readings out to 800 yards. Its 5x magnification delivers an exceptionally wide field of view, allowing users to quickly acquire a target at closer distances.

Each of the four new models has a multicoated lens system and a new Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that produce an image up to three times brighter than competitive rangefinders. Other key features common to all models include actual 6x magnification (5x for FullDraw), fast-focus eyepiece with precision clicks, intuitive quick set menu, three user-selectable aiming reticles, and fold-down rubber eyecups that can accommodate users with or without eyeglasses. Long eye relief helps make the new RX rangefinders comfortable and easy to use for eyeglass wearers.

Maximum range on reflective targets for the RX-800i, RX-800i TBR and RX-FullDraw is 800 yards. Each model is waterproof and built to withstand the rigors of extensive field use. Rugged and weatherproof, the affordable RX-600i has a maximum range of 600 yards.

Leupold Binoculars

leupoldRiker's Island Correctional Facility

Monday, June 11

10:00 am

Connie Cutter normally didn't touch the evidence, but the bomber had been very clever. He had taken apart the amazing engineering of a pair of Leupold Golden Ring binoculars and turned them into a killing machine. They featured Switch/Power Technology, which has a switch in front of the focus ring that instantly and fully changes the power setting, so the object you're viewing always stays in the center of the visual field. A high-performance pair of binoculars shouldn't be destroyed like that. His case was up for appeal, and with his cold heart, she'd make sure he didn't see the light of day.

Mike Rubiosa looked over her shoulder. "He should have used a Leupold Norfolk. They work better in low-light conditions. My uncle and dad use them when they go hunting in Colorado. They're phase coated BAK4 prisms enhance resolution, which is great for scoping out elk."

Leupold – america’s optics authority

Leupold. America's Optics Authority.
Proud to be an American companyProud to be America's Optics AuthorityA commitment to American jobs, superior quality, and a square deal for our customer.

AMERICAN MANUFACTURING
Step into the Leupold factory and you will discover an American manufacturing success story. It is a vibrant facility with over 155,000 square feet teeming with passionate people, precision machinery, and cutting edge optical labs. This is a rare sight: these days very few riflescopes are made in the United States. Yet even the least expensive Leupold riflescope is built with care and precision right here in this facility.

Over two million pounds of aluminum are machined into riflescope main tubes and parts each year at the Leupold factory. Laid end over end that aluminum would stretch over four hundred miles. But more impressive than the quantity of scope production is the consistently outstanding quality, a testament to Leupold's precision throughout the manufacturing process.

AMERICAN ENGINEERING
At any time you can find teams of optical and mechanical engineers in state-of-the-art optical labs and model shops around the Leupold campus, or walking the factory floor and interacting with the manufacturing team. Leupold leadership in optical quality is demonstrated as the designated U.S. representative of telescopic systems in the ISO standards body.

Every optical prescription and mechanical specification on any Leupold riflescope is created for a distinct purpose. Those standards, whether optical or mechanical, are rigidly tested on every riflescope made. Every Leupold riflescope is designed to withstand 5,000 impacts at 750g - a standard no competing scopes have consistently passed. Every Leupold riflescope is water tested before the adjustment covers are installed to ensure that there is absolute water integrity. Over 60 years of riflescope innovation has made Leupold America's Optics Authority.

AMERICAN HUNTERS AND WARRIORS
Talk with Leupold employees and chances are you'll find a common bond - a passion for hunting and shooting. We use our own products in the field and we're passionate about those products.

Many Leupold employees have relied on Leupold optics in former military careers or have sons and daughters deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq right now. We share office space with veterans from all branches of the military who know the importance of unfailing optics in life and death situations. Each of us is proud of the work our troops are doing and arepassionate about creating excellent products for America's armed forces.

AMERICAN PRIDE
Beyond our work and our hunting stories we are all proud to be Americans. As we look to the coming 4th of July holiday we have so much to be thankful for.

From our family to yours, we wish you a happy 4th of July!
