## Resource

In this episode of Leupold's Hunt Talk Radio, Randy is joined by two of the lead minds behind Leupold's legendary gold ring: Tim Lesser and Dustin Miller. In a rare, deep-dive technical conversation, the trio explores what it really takes to build world-class optics in Beaverton, Oregon, and why American manufacturing remains the backbone of the brand. From the high-stakes "Moment of Truth" at SHOT Show to the meticulous engineering of the new BX-6 Range HD binocular, this episode pulls back the curtain on the culture of innovation, family ownership, and the "Secret Sauce" that keeps Leupold at the top of the podium.
