Each Leupold silver scope you find on eBay has a specific lens diameter. This diameter is generally measured in millimeters. There is a Leupold scope with a diameter to suit any shooting situation, but one of the main things that lens diameter can impact is eye relief. Eye relief is how far from the front of the lens your eye needs to be to allow you to see everything sighted within the scope's range.

All Leupold range-finding scopes have a reticle. You can use this series of lines to take measurements and references when you are looking at objects through the scope. Reticles come in several patterns. You can use eBay to sort through Leupold silver scopes to find those with the reticle pattern you prefer. Some common options include the following:

• Fine crosshair - This is the standard set of two reticle lines. A vertical and horizontal line intersect at a point that you can use for targeting.
• Duplex - The duplex crosshair has bolded lines surrounding the fine center. You may find the contrast between the lines helpful during targeting.
• Heavy duplex - Some Leupold silver scopes use this offshoot of the standard duplex crosshairs. The posts on this reticle are thicker than those in the original.

Every Leupold silver scope has a maximum magnification level. This number determines how much closer objects within your scope appear to you. You can choose a scope that uses as little as four levels of magnification or as many as 12. Note that some scopes may have more than one set of numbers. There are two types of magnification that you can choose from, depending on the scope type:

• Fixed - The magnification level for these scopes is set at one number. If you are looking for a scope that will have dedicated use, such as for long-range hunting, a fixed-magnification scope can work well for you.
• Ranged - You can increase or decrease the magnification for these Leupold silver scopes, making them excellent scopes for all-around use.
