Not a gun writer here but I have a good amount of experience with the #4, heavy duplex, and LRD/BC reticle. would just like to find a post &duplex to try. Missed one very recently in the classifieds (VX3 3.5-10x40) thinking I would have rather had a recently made 6x42 or 6x36 instead. Should have jumped on the VX3 as it is close to the same size as the 6x42 and it would be going on my dedicated tree stand/box stand rifle which currently wears a Conquest 3-9x40.
That said, I've tried the Leupold #4and heavy duplex, and prefer the post duplex in that role. For distant shooting, the finer, wider apart #4 reticle is slightly better as is the LRD, which I prefer on a scope I won't be dialing for reasonably distant ranges (600yds or less). Just need to find a recent post duplex for sale, or break down and order what I want and pay more from the Leupy custom shop.
