According to: http://www.shootingwire.com/story/261121

Leupold® introduces the VX®-6 Multigun 1-6x24mm riflescope featuring the illuminated FireDot™ Special Purpose Reticle (SPR®), and now available through the Leupold Custom Shop.

With its powerful 6:1 zoom ratio, the VX-6 Multigun delivers the speed of a zero-magnification red dot at its lowest power setting. At its highest power setting, the scope pulls distant targets in tighter for more precise shot placement. Unlike many higher power scopes that deliver their best sight picture only at each end of the zoom ratio, VX-6 is engineered to deliver exceptional image quality from edge-to-edge of the visual field at any magnification. With an MSRP of $949.99, the VX-6 Multigun outperforms many higher priced optics.

1. Julie Golob: 1907-144x
2. Jessie Harrison-Duff: 1902-153x
3. Tiffany Piper: 1879-143x

If you understand the way the scores are shown, you appreciate just how good these shooters really are. There are 192 shots fired in the competition. If the shot goes in an eight inch area called the ten-ring, it's worth ten points. If it's in the 4-inch x-ring inside that eight inch circle, it's worth an x. What that means is Doug Koenig fired a perfect score (192x10= 1,920). But eight of his 192 shots were outside a four-inch circle on moving and still targets at distances from 10 to 25 yards.

Responding to the difficulties encountered by handloaders using this bullet, Redding Reloading Equipment has introduced a new Profile crimp dies designed specifically to meet this need.
