Leupold & Stevens, Inc., provider of the world's most rugged, lightweight, and clear sport optics, is pleased to announce the launch of the game-changing new BX-6 Range HD rangefinding binocular. With world-class optical clarity, fast, accurate ranging capabilities out to 6,000 yards, the most advanced ballistics intelligence available, and precision GPS pinning, the BX-6 Range HD is poised to be the best and most feature-rich rangefinding binocular available.
"Our team put an incredible amount of work into the BX-6 Range HD, and the result is the most complete rangefinding binocular on the market." said Tim Lesser, Vice President of Product and Marketing for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. "You're getting incredible glass, the most advanced ballistics possible, and the most accurate GPS pinning software available. It is the whole package and offers solutions for both hunters and shooters."
As a binocular, it all starts with the glass. The BX-6 Range HD offers unmatched light transmission that's designed to outperform in the most challenging conditions, industry-leading glare reduction for a clear image in direct, harsh light, and the resolution and clarity that professional hunting guides and shooters demand. With the best optical performance Leupold has ever offered in a rangefinding binocular, the BX-6 Range HD sets a new standard. The rangefinding engine, meanwhile, is an industry best. Capable of exceeding ranges of 2,000 yards on deer-sized game, 3,000 yards on trees, and 6,000 yards in long-range mode, it delivers the fastest and most accurate ranging performance available.
Advanced Ballistics Intelligence
The BX-6 Range HD is the first rangefinding binocular to utilize the Hornady 4DOF® ballistic calculator, providing a modern ballistic solver that models how your specific bullet behaves in flight, delivering dependable, highly accurate trajectory solutions at long range. Unlike traditional ballistic calculators that rely on ballistic coefficient, 4DOF® uses real, Doppler-measured bullet data to account for bullet drag. Those drag coefficients are then paired with the exact physical model of your specific projectile. By matching drag coefficient and the physical model of the bullet, 4DOF® can accurately predict the dynamic responses of your bullet in flight, providing more reliable predictions for drop and wind drift, helping shooters make confident adjustments when precision matters most.
Offering a more generalized solution is Leupold's existing CDS ballistic technology, provides angle-compensated shoot-to distances for rifle hunters. CDS offers 25 selectable ballistics groups that account for your preferred cartridge, helping you dial in the exact range of your target.
Archery hunters and competition shooters are taken care of, too, with the inclusion of the new Precision Cut Archery Software. PCA uses your arrow weight, arrow velocity, peep height, and environmentals to calculate extremely accurate archery ballistic solutions. By including your atmospheric conditions when sighting in and setting up sight tapes Leupold provides accurate shoot-to distances at all elevations and angles, corrected to your sight-in tape.
"PCA changes the game by reducing re-zero conditions when you reach your archery camp," said Eric Overstreet, Technology Product Line Manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. "It will provide ranges compensated to your sight tape, regardless of location or atmospheric conditions. It's the equivalent of real-time ballistics for archers."
Both 4DOF® and PCA can provide advanced, real-time ballistics thanks to the BX-6 Range HD's on-board environmental sensor.
Precision GPS Pinning
Built for the modern hunter, the BX-6 Range HD is equipped with Leupold's Precision GPS Pinning feature.
Precision Pinning converts ranged targets into exact, shareable map waypoints with unrivaled accuracy. Using proprietary compass calibration and in-field tuning via the Leupold Control App, every pin lands precisely where it should. Location pins can be dropped in digital mapping platforms like onX, Apple Maps, Google Maps, ATAK, HuntStand, and DeerCast, making the BX-6 Range HD invaluable as a navigational device.
"Precision Pinning is an incredibly valuable and versatile feature," Overstreet said. "You can use it to help navigate a ridge, mark where you've seen game, or for countless other purposes. It's a tool made for the backcountry hunter, and when properly calibrated the BX-6 Range will typically drop waypoints within 1° of your ranged targets–absolutely an industry best."
Leupold Control App
The BX-6 Range HD's ballistics and Precision Pinning software is managed through the unit's Bluetooth connection with the Leupold Control App.
The Leupold Control app transforms your mobile device into a powerful command center for select Leupold products. With it, you'll dominate the field as you customize modes and settings, adjust your ballistic profiles, capture accurate ranges, and precisely drop GPS waypoints—all with just a few quick taps.
Available for free download in the Apple Store and for Android on Google Play, the Leupold Control App allows you to customize your BX-6 Range HD experience. Choose your ballistics, your rangefinding display settings, your reticle, and more.
More Features, More Performance
The BX-6 Range HD includes a vivid red, dimmable AccuView Display. In addition to the Leupold Control App, it offers simple on-unit programming using five directional buttons.
Interchangeable, form-fit eyecups allow for customization to suit personal preferences. A binocular case, lens covers, and an Arca-Swiss tripod adapter are included with purchase.
