It will work just fine during Alabama legal shooting hours and even a little afterwards.
Before the law changed I’d say spend the $ on the 5 or 6 but there’s no reason to anymore.
You're only as good as your worst shot-

Hell if that is the standard. You can shoot iron sights past the new legal time.
I don’t have any experience with the vx3i. But I have never been a fan of leopard. At least not for what they want for them

Me too at ten yards and I have larger than normal pupils and 2015 vision, anyone else is fooling themselves by thinking irons work at good. Game wardens usually give you till the color green fades out which is about 12 minutes extra

The 2.5-8 VX3i is a great scope I own two and I've been pleased. In a world of 34MM tube diameter super deluxe 8-80X72MM target scopes, the modest 2.5-8X36 sure works well on my hunting rifles.

I’m gonna look at Meopta if I get a chance to buy. I highly recommend the German #4 reticle too.

I own two of the Leupold VX-3i 3.5-10 x 40 mm scopes. Both are mounted up on lever guns. I have one on a Marlin 336 .30-30 and one on a Marlin 336 .35 Remington. They are real nice scopes for the money.

Leupold VX3 scopes in some variety, including the VX3I, is all I use. I've killed alot of whitetails, an antelope and mule deer(mounted on my pistol), and an elk in the snow with these scopes. They've worked really well for me.
83% of all statistics are made up.

I’ve got 2 of the VX3i 3.5-10x50 w/ Heavy Duplex reticles. Lot of bang for the buck and the bold reticle really pops long past legal shooting light.

Yessir! I’m always gonna shoot what makes me happy and I want everyone else to do the same! If you shoot one be proud of it and don’t worry what anyone else thinks. - SJ22
