RIX LEAP L6R — Product Description

The RIX LEAP L6R is a high-end thermal imaging riflescope built for long-range identification and engagement in low-light, no-light, and adverse weather settings. It upgrades the already capable L6 with a built-in laser rangefinder (LRF) capability, giving it an edge for precision users who demand range measurement integrated into their optic.

Key Features & Highlights

• Integrated Laser Rangefinder (LRF)
    The “R” in L6R denotes the inclusion of a laser range finding module aligned to the optical axis, enabling on-scope distance measurement. (RIX L3R / L6R series advertise this feature) 

• Extended Detection Range
    The L6R can detect a 6-ft tall object out to approximately 2,600 meters / 2,843 yards. 

• Thermal Sensor & Optics
    • Core resolution: 640 × 360 with 12 µm pixel pitch 
    • NETD: < 25 mK (good thermal sensitivity) 
    • Optical zoom: continuous 2.8× to 8.4× zoom (no discrete steps) 
    • Digital zoom: 1× to 4× additional magnification 

• Display & Imaging
    • Display: 1920 × 1080 OLED 
    • Video / photo capture: supports both, with onboard 32 GB memory 
    • Recoil-activated recording and ability to stream images to your mobile device via Wi-Fi (RIX+ app) 

• Ergonomics & Controls
    • The L6R retains the intuitive control layout of the LEAP line: three knobs and two oversized buttons, allowing quick changes even with gloves on. 
    • Redesign of eyepiece: larger exit pupil and extended eye relief to expand the “forgiving eye box” by ~30%. 
    • Return-to-Center (RTC) function: after zeroing the reticle, the scope can automatically re-center on the y-axis to ease targeting alignment. 

• Durability & Construction
    • Impact resistance: rated for forces up to 1,000 g (suitable for heavy calibers) 
    • Weather & environment: IP67 rating (resistant to dust and water ingress) 

• Power & Battery
    • Uses a standard 18650 rechargeable battery 
    • Operating time: approx. 7 hours per battery under nominal conditions 
    • Also supports external 5 V USB-C power input for extended runs 

• Mounting & Physical
    • 30 mm tube compatibility (standard rings) 
    • Dimensions: approx. 14.6 × 3.5 × 3 in (length × width × height) 
    • Weight: ~2.6 lb 

Use Case & Appeal

The LEAP L6R is aimed at advanced users—hunters, long-range shooters, law enforcement, or anyone needing reliable thermal imaging plus built-in ranging capability in a single unit. It combines long-range detection, continuous zoom optics, and the convenience of an embedded laser rangefinder—reducing the need for external accessories.

Because of its detection and range capabilities, the L6R is especially useful in open terrain, over long distances, and in scenarios where fast target acquisition and precise range data are critical. The robust design and intuitive controls also make it field-ready.
