- In this episode, Michael Baccellieri discusses how to properly setup a LVPO.
Michael “Buck” Baccellieri grew up in the Pacific Northwest where he started his military career at age 17. He joined the Army National Guard while still in high school, attending basic and AIT, and spent three years as an infantry rifleman. Upon completing a deployment to the Middle East, he cross-decked to the Marine Corps, where he spent four years as an infantryman, assault climber, CWSS swimmer, and Scout in an STA platoon. Baccellieri later returned to the Army National Guard, taking up a slot in a sniper section and, after completing sniper school, moving on to the role of sniper team leader. He finished his career as an instructor at the Fort Chaffee sniper schoolhouse in Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Baccellieri now works for Leupold & Stevens, Inc., as the lead optics and firearms instructor for all military/LE training. He fills his time between classes by performing military business development for the Oregon-based company.

“LVPO” Ah, a fellow dyslexic. Dyslexics untie!
Man, I wish every tutorial was this clear, precise, and direct. Thank you.
maybe the best diopter & set up vid ive seen. I mounted my lvpo yesterday and i thought i had it set up pretty well initially. now ill be playing with this thing all weekend long to get it to where its true-1x
I believe that is the Socom SVPS submission optic that Leupold submitted but did not win. It was never released for commercial sales and is rarely ever seen in pictures.
Happy thanksgiving🦃, to everyone @SureFire also the best of the upcoming holidays❄, as well,🤘🏼!
Informative
Thanks for the info. I usually set it up against the sky. Similar to the long range scope. My eyes are ok 20/25 on shooting eye and haven’t had any issues but will try this way and see if I can see a difference…
Contract trials Mk5 1-6 (8) I’m guessing? Will it be released?
I've found that some optics have bad diopter shift as you run through the mag range, and others, do not. My MK6 and Nightforce NX8 don't have perceptible diopter shift, which is to say, crisp 1x at 5 yards, is also crisp reticle at 125 yards. Optics like the VCOG drove me crazy, as crisp across the room was instantly headache inducing blur at 100 yards.
A very important thing to do with your binoculars as well.
What is the scope??
That’s actually a gold bar melted down into the shape of a scope.
I’m guessing that 1-6 was Leupold’s submission for the SU-293 contract?
I think it's the MK6 they've been selling CAG
I thought the diopter was to get the reticle in sharp focus. Do you want a true 1 power with a blurry reticle? I don't.
Confusing explanation. Isn’t setting diopter for crisp view more important than making it 1x?
....because knowing is half the battle.
Ok Surefire, I need your help. I’m working on a build right now that I am about to put some very nice glass on. I’ve been planning on doing an LPVO like the trijicon SCO. But now I’m seeing everyone also using an offset red dot? If I’m planning on using the offset for close engagements then what makes the case for having an optic capable of true 1x over something even more capable like a mark 5 2-10 or 3.9-18? Seems a little redundant unless the offset red dot takes the place of irons as a backup. Someone help a brother out! They both seem like good options, I’m hoping to have a 14.5 setup I can use from 7 feet all the way out to 600 yards for competition. What makes the most sense from the dudes that have access to this and train with it?
Great video, Mike. Do you have a preference on location of the red dot being forward or aft of the cantilever mount? I have a 14.5" gun I run with a 1-8lpvo and a 45 offset dot, I have always ran my dot in front of the scope mount and near the end of the objective lens, truthfully it gets in the way of my lens cap on the lpvo, but I think it has the perfect amount of eye relief at that position, I can roll my gun and run it with both eyes open in close range fire.
Sorry for the late reply here. It was just brought to my attention that there were some comments and questions. I prefer it forward but several shooters I know like it closer to their eye. At the end of the day, it's very much personal preference. The goal is to be fast and accurate, and whichever way you run it aids in accomplishing this is the right way for you.
What lpvo is that?
So are you supposed to adjust the diopter for true 1x or to match your eye prescription? Not sure how he explained to do both.
On an LVPO, yes. On a precision high powered rifle scope, set the diopter up for reticle clarity
Thank you. Once you've done that, what's the best way to ensure that your cheek has the same placement point the stock every time? I presume that would matter too right?
And should I be keeping both eyes open when using (like a dot), or just one?
In the army, they teach you to hold a proper cheek weld by putting a piece of tape on the buttstock where you rest your cheek bone. Practice with this enough and your cheek weld will be perfect every time
@@phambelton1 you should try to shoot with both eyes open, but it’s hard to get used to. Try using the lens protector to cover the end of the scope when you practice, it will get you used to overlaying the reticle on your target while relying on your other eye to see around the scope.
Eyes open in general.
Also, you can take a piece of tape and put a foam earplug on the stock. You can make sure the same part of your cheek touches the foam, makes it a reference point. Sean Ryan (vigilance elite) suggested it and it works great. Check out his rifle setup video.
Repetition. And yes, keep both eyes open
By dawns early light SureFire come in earth let's be a stranger on the grid.
Surefire it's been a month now since your last YT video come in earth S.F., by the dawn's early light!?
Nice knights
Thank you!
What’s the barrel length on that rifle ? 12.5 ?
Look like a 14.5
14.5" Knights Armament SR15
Just put the dipoter mark at 0 to get 0 magnification induced from the ocular lens. But if you dont see the reticle clear that way, you may need glasses.
This won't always work, but it's a good place to start
The best way to set up an lpvo is to put it back in the box, and stop pretending you need to clear a building and hold down the fort from the rooftop
Wo
Is it lvpo or lpvo?
Low powered variable optic so LPVO.
I say LVPO as in Low "Variable-Powered" Optic. The term "powered-variable" doesn't make much sense in my head when I say it so I always say LVPO. But if LPVO makes sense to you, I don't think it makes much difference
Louis Vuitton powered optic
Sound expensive
You can't call it an LPVO int the title then call it an LVPO in the video. OCD overload...
Sound advice.....er....um.....Optical advice.
LPVO not LVPO! This guy keeps saying LVPO which is wrong.. was there not anyone in the room to let him know? Embarrassing to say the least.
I bet you're fun at parties.
I've always said LVPO because we say "variable-powered", not "powered-variable" optic. Low "variable-powered" optic grammatically makes sense... Low "Powered-Variable" Optic just doesn't makes sense to me. I'm sorry this was embarrassing for you. I don't feel embarrassed.
