Leupold Rx-Iii Digital Rangefinder Monocular 61465 Overview
8x magnification gives you plenty of power, with a wide field of view to track movement. Rugged, waterproof construction. Scan mode continuously updates the range as you track a target or scan an area. The precision thermometer gives you digital readings in ¿C or ¿F. Accurate to 1,200 yards, with measurements in feet, yards, or meters. The Quick Set Rotary Menu® is easy to use, for fast customization of your RX-III. Also includes the Quick Start Mode. With a built-in inclinometer, the RX-III calculates the ballistics range to your target, then displays it as a holdover aim point, an MOA adjustment, or the equivalent horizontal distance. Battery power indicator for easy battery level checks. The common CR2 lithium camera battery is easy to change in the field. Multiple Ballistics Settings¿RX rangefinders with True Ballistic Range (TBR®) provide accurate aiming information matched to the performance of your rifle or bow. By calculating the incline, line of sight range to the target, and a projectile¿s ballistics, your RX provides rifle hunters using Leupold Ballistics Aiming System¿ reticles as well as bow hunters the correct equivalent horizontal distance for precise shooting on an incline. In other words, aim using the True Ballistic Range, not the line of sight range. Rifle hunters can also get this data as an MOA adjustment or a holdover point. With practice, long distance/steep angle shooting will become second nature. Dial in your RX to one of seven TBR ballistics settings for the rifle and three for the bow for incredible accuracy. TBR is effective to 800 yards for most rifle cartridges.
Leupold Rx-Iii Digital Rangefinder Monocular 61465 Specifications
Close enough simply isn’t good enough for Leupold, and probably not for you, either. Fortunately, Leupold’s line of digital rangefinders offers features and performance unmatched in other optics. The highly accurate RX-III rangefinder offers precision ranging out to 1,200 yards, helping make up the difference between a hit and a miss. The RX-III does more than just deliver the straight-line distance, however, as the tool also employs True Ballistic Range (TBR) technology to match the aiming information to the performance of your rifle or bow. By calculating the incline, line-of-sight range to the target, and a projectile’s ballistics, the RX-III provides both rifle and bow hunters the correct equivalent horizontal distance for precise shooting on an incline. In other words, you’ll aim using the True Ballistic Range rather than the line-of-sight range. With practice, long-distance and/or steep angle shooting will become second nature. Simply dial in your RX-III to one of seven TBR ballistic settings for your rifle and three for the bow to enjoy incredible accuracy (TBR is effective to 800 yards for most rifle cartridges).
The Match 13 reticle system gives you fast access to each reticle. |
The RX-III rangefinder also lets you do something you can’t do with any non-RX series rangefinder–use multiple modes at once to tailor your readings to the conditions. For example, are you scouting a whitetail in the rain? Use the Rain mode and 1st Target mode at the same time to achieve the most accurate range possible. Only RX series rangefinders give you the ability to adapt to changing conditions like this. Plus, Leupold’s exclusive Quick Set Rotary Menu is intuitive and easy to use, giving you fast access to all the incredible performance modes of the RX-III rangefinder.
Perhaps the most useful customizable feature of the RX-III, however, is the Match 13 reticle system, which gives you fast access to each of the finder’s 13 reticles. As a result, you’ll always have the right reticle for any situation. In addition, each reticle is available with the Leupold Plus Point, giving you an added level of accuracy when pinpointing a target. Other features include a built-in inclinometer, which calculates the ballistics range to your target, then displays it as a holdover aim point, an MOA adjustment, or the equivalent horizontal distance; an 8x magnification level, with a wide field of view to track movement; a scan mode that continuously updates the range as you track a target or scan an area; a precision thermometer that gives you digital readings in Celsius or Fahrenheit; a battery power indicator for easy battery level checks; a common CR2 lithium camera battery that changes easily in the field; a rugged, waterproof construction; and a matte black finish.
The RX-III rangefinder comes with a useful carrying case with a bungee/hook closure for silent operation in the field, a dog clip for attaching to your pack, and an internal pocket for carrying batteries, instructions, and other items. The rangefinder also offers a tripod thread, so you can keep it steady when acquiring your target. The RX-III rangefinder caries a one-year warranty on the internal electronics.

About Leupold
From humble immigrant beginnings, Leupold grew–based on a promise of quality–to become a classic American company. In 1907, Fred Leupold set up a one-man shop at 5th and Oak streets in Portland to repair surveying equipment. He was joined by his brother-in-law, Adam Voelpel, and later by inventor John Cyprian Stevens, and the foundations for a century of success were in place.
During Leupold’s second half-century, the company focused heavily on the sports optics business. Leupold’s presence in the hunting and shooting market expanded with innovative optics and features that are now legendary among hunters, shooters, and outdoors enthusiasts. Many of the industry’s standards–nitrogen waterproofing, the Duplex reticle, and more–were Leupold creations.
