Yea I don’t think I’m going to be getting rid of this one. I’ve waited to long to find one. Leupold, Burris, vortex, Swarovski in what ever magnifications on and objective dia you want I would stay with a 30 mm tube and I prefer the german 4 crosshair. Or I'll give you 300 for the rifle and you won't to go through the pain of all the options of scope shopping

The Leupold VX5 scopes are the best scopes for the dollar you can buy IMHO.

The VX5/VX6 glass is better than the Z3 and very comparable to the Z5 across the whole magnification range. Where the Leupold’s shine are their Firedot reticle. It trumps the Swaro illuminated reticle in every category that matters to me: ease of use, battery life, zero starburst effect. Having said that I still love Swarovski’s and have several of them in rotation. All depends on what you want or expect out of your optic. If you’re gonna be dialing for distance I wouldn’t recommend either.

I have a VX6HD 3x18x52, in my opinion it is brighter and clearer vs my zeiss diavari 3x12x56. New VX 5 / 6 HD are fine scopes
