I am looking to buy a good used Leupold 6.5x20 Vari X III E.F.R scope with a matt finish and fine cross hairs for my target 22  Will this scope focus down to 25 and 50 yards?  Are there any other high power varible leupold scopes that would work well at this range. I heard leuopold makes a 8.5x25 with a  1” tube but I can not find it in their most recent catalog. Do they make such a scope?I have been looking for one of these also but with no luck

the efr is and adjustable objective. it prob goes down to 10 or 7 yards. but im sure it will go down to at least 25

the 8.5-25(it has a30mm tube) is  a side focus. prob goes to 50 yards. the 6.5 -20 is better suited to rimfire

You may have to call Leupold to get the minimum focus distance on the different models unless you can fing one of their catelogues as they have that info in them.  If I remember correctly the 30mm tube version minimum focus was around 50 yds.  I think the front parallax versions will focus closer.  I dont recall seeing any of the 8.5-25 with anything other than 30 mm tube.  If you are looking for a target only daylight scope why not consider the fixed power FX 3 scopes.
