What tube ring size do I need to mount the Leupold VX-5HD Gen 2 4-20x52?

This scope features a robust 34mm maintube to provide extra internal windage and elevation travel for extreme distance shooting. Therefore, you will need to pair it with 34mm mounting rings rather than standard 30mm options.

Does this illuminated reticle scope require any special Australian electrical certifications or adapters?

No, it is a strictly passive optical system powered by a single CR2032 lithium coin cell battery for the FireDot illumination. Because it does not connect to mains power, it does not require SAA or RCM electrical safety certifications, 240V adapters, or an Australian wall plug.

What is the adjustment tracking system on the elevation dial of this Gen 2 model?

The scope is equipped with the CDS-SZL2 SpeedSet Elevation Dial, which offers MOA adjustments with a 0.25 MOA click value and a total elevation travel of 85 MOA. It also features a tool-free zeroing configuration and a locked, highly visible zero position for fast field adjustments across open terrain.

What distance can I adjust the side focus parallax down to for close shots?

The side focus parallax on the VX-5HD Gen 2 4-20x52 is adjustable from 50 yards (approximately 45.7 metres) out to infinity. This allows you to maintain a clear, parallax-free image whether you are tracking game in dense bush or targeting across wide open valleys.
