Availability: In Stock
The Leupold SX-5 Santiam HD 27-55x80mm angled spotting scope is built for serious hunters, long-range shooters, and backcountry glassers who refuse to compromise on optics. This is a full-featured, professional-grade spotter engineered to cut through tough lighting and deliver edge-to-edge clarity when it matters most—whether you're glassing from a ridge at dawn, confirming steel at the range in harsh midday sun, or scanning valleys in challenging conditions. The angled eyepiece design gives you comfortable viewing angles and lets you rotate the ocular for flexibility in how you position yourself behind the glass.
Leupold engineered the Santiam HD around their Professional-Grade Optical System, which combines a fully multi-coated Diamond Coat 2 lens array, high-definition phase coatings, and armor-coated elements to maximize light transmission and kill glare. The result is a bright, color-true image even when you're staring into harsh, direct light—a real advantage when conditions are less than perfect. At 27–55x magnification, you get the flexibility to scan at lower power and zoom in for precise spotting and target confirmation. The 80mm objective gathers plenty of light across the entire zoom range.
Built and assembled in the USA, this scope is fogproof, waterproof, and backed by Leupold's no-questions lifetime warranty. An Arca-Swiss tripod adapter is integrated into the body, so you can mount it quickly to any compatible head. At 68.7 ounces and 15 inches long, it's substantial enough to deliver optical excellence without being unwieldy in the field.

The SX-5 Santiam HD comes in an angled body configuration, which positions the eyepiece at an angle rather than straight back. The angled design is popular because it reduces neck strain during extended glassing sessions and accommodates different shooting or observation positions more comfortably. The rotatable eyepiece on the angled model lets you adjust the viewing angle to suit your needs.
The SX-5 Santiam HD has an integrated Arca-Swiss tripod adapter built into the scope body. Any tripod head that accepts Arca-Swiss mounts will work. You'll need to supply your own tripod and head—the scope is not sold with one included.
Yes. The 27–55x magnification range and 80mm objective make it well-suited for confirming shots, spotting bullet impact, and ranging targets at the range. The Professional-Grade Optical System and glare-reduction coatings are designed to work in the bright, harsh light often found at outdoor ranges, and the close focus of 11 feet allows you to inspect targets and equipment at closer distances.
Like all Leupold spotting scopes, the SX-5 Santiam HD is guaranteed to perform for life. Leupold backs the scope with their no-questions lifetime warranty.
