Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Leupold VX-6

I like the VX-6 2-12. I've not had parallax issues. When you move up to the 3-18, you do pick up some weight.

The big Nightforce type scopes are tough, but heavy. So, you gotta determine what you want. To me, the 2-12 is a compromise, but represents one of the best all around hunting scope buys. For a dedicated LR hunting rifle, where weight isn't an issue, one of the big, heavy target scopes may be what you want. Just how portable does this rig need to be?

VX-6 glass holds its own with the Alpha Euros. Even though it's 30mm, it's rather sleek. Did I say I like mine. It now wears Alumina Fold Back lens covers, which are much nicer that Butler Creek, although a good bit more expensive.
