Thanks for everyone's input. First if the gloss scope was going to simply sit on the shelf it would have stayed on the 22-250.
I have to remove it to have the barrel replaced and reblued anyway. Either it or a new scope will need to be sighted back in. Comparing my 20+ yr. of VXII 4x12 to my 5 yr. old Burris FFII 4.5x14x42 to me it seems the Burris is clearer/brighter.
So I ordered a new Burris 4.5x14. The VXII will simply bump a Simmons off a 243. So the 243 wins and my new 22-250 barrel will have no excuse because my old eyes will be able to see better. Sounds like a win/win
