The only bad Weaver scope that I've owned is a V10, 2-10x38. It has the worst "tunnel vision" that I've ever experienced. Currently running a dozen V16s, 4-16x42AO, on rifles in the 17HM2 thru 243 range. My load development scope for rifles with Weaver, or Weaver-style, bases is a KT15, 15x40AO, that is close to perfect for that use. Also have a few old K3s with PCH reticles on 30-30 lever and pump guns.
Now that you mention that about the V series, I remember it. I had a 3x9x50 IIRC. Great glass, precise adjustments, clear to the edges etc. but you were very aware of the inside of the scope tube.
This seems like a great scope for the money. It'd probably do my Creedmoor justice.
