I really like the larger FOV the VX-6's give and that the listed magnification is the true magnification. I think they are heads and shoulders above the VX-3's. Here's a 2-12 on a Forbes 308. and a 1-6 on a faux TI. The size of the 2-12 didn't bother me however, I did put a VX-R 2-7 on the Forbes to keep with the light rifle theme. Reality was only a 3.4 oz diff! I have a Forbes 280 coming that will wear the VX-6 2-12.
