Walk into Emmett & Stone Country Sports and you can’t miss it.
A bright Leupold Gold Ring display, packed with glass, dominates the gunroom – a wall-to-wall reminder that this South East retailer is now one of the best-stocked Leupold optics dealers in the UK.
As Leupold’s UK distributor, Viking Arms has worked closely with the Emmett & Stone team to build a display that shows just how broad the Leupold line really is – from lightweight stalking scopes to serious long-range optics, binoculars and spotters. Every optic in the cabinet is backed by Leupold’s Guaranteed for Life promise, giving shooters confidence that their kit will go the distance.
Here’s a run-through of what you’ll find in that case.
Hunting riflescopes – classic Gold Ring performance
Front and centre are a selection of Gold Ring hunting scopes – the sort of glass you’d expect to see on a serious deer rifle or foxing rig.
On the grass-topped shelf you’ll spot scopes with:
- Generous objective lenses for low-light performance at first and last light
- Clean, practical hunting reticles for fast target acquisition
- Low-profile turrets that won’t snag in the bush or on a sling
- Leupold’s signature gold ring around the objective bell
Many of these models feature Leupold’s Custom Dial System (CDS) – the turrets marked on the caps make them easy to spot in the cabinet. With CDS, once you’ve had a custom dial cut for your rifle, you simply “dial to distance” instead of holding over. It’s a straightforward way to stretch the legs of a stalking rifle without adding complication.
Whether you’re building a roe, fallow or red stalking setup – or a do-everything .223 for fox control – there’s a Leupold hunting scope in that cabinet designed to match.
Precision & target optics – for diallers and distance work
Mixed in with the traditional hunting glass are several larger-bodied scopes with tactical turrets. These are purpose-built for shooters who like to dial regularly and engage at distance.
Look for features such as:
- Large elevation and windage turrets with clear, tactile clicks
- Side parallax adjustment for fine focus at longer ranges
- Higher magnification ranges suited to small targets and precision disciplines
These scopes are ideal for:
- Steel and gong shooting out to extended ranges
- Precision rimfire and centrefire competitions
- Zeroing and load development on the range
If you’re building a long-range rifle or upgrading from a basic optic, the Emmett & Stone team can walk you through these models and help you choose the right magnification range and reticle for how you shoot.
Binoculars – always have glass in your hands
Nestled towards the front of the display, on a white stand, sit a compact pair of Leupold binoculars – the sort of glass that lives around your neck all day without weighing you down.
These binos are built for:
- Woodland stalking and hill days
- General field use – from pigeon recon to checking fields at last light
- Range days, clay grounds and everyday outdoor use
Expect:
- Bright, sharp images thanks to Leupold’s advanced lens coatings
- A robust, waterproof housing designed for real-world conditions
- Comfortable ergonomics that make long glassing sessions easy
If you’ve only ever relied on a scope to “do the spotting”, a good pair of binoculars will change how you hunt. Emmett & Stone’s new Leupold display makes it easy to compare binos side by side.
Spotting scope – seeing every detail
On the left side of the cabinet you’ll see an angled Leupold spotting scope on a dedicated stand. This is the tool for when you need to see everything:
- Checking hits and group sizes on distant targets
- Reading wind and mirage on the range
- Scanning hill sides for stags or picking out animals in thick cover
Leupold spotters are built to be thrown in the truck, carried up the hill and used in all weathers. The combination of crisp glass and rugged construction makes them a favourite with guides, range officers and serious shooters alike.
Accessories & extras
The display also showcases Leupold branding and accessories, including:
- Branded display blocks and information tags to help you navigate the range
- Leupold caps and soft goods – a nice add-on for brand fans
- Boxed optics ready to go straight to the till
It’s a smart, modern layout that lets you handle different models, compare features and find the optic that suits your rifle, your discipline and your budget.
