It would be hard to change my opinion that the 2-12x42 VX-6 is the finest all around rifle scope ever made
Really? VX-6 is a great scope but the 2-10x42 Zeiss Diavari pops to mind real quick as something better. The VX-6 is good but not "finest" IME.
I have a couple of VX-6's, a couple of Zeiss Victory's. The VX-6 is a great scope, a Victory it is not.
But, the Victory is several times the price of a VX-6, especially the close out VX-6's.
Is the Victory three or so times better than the VX-6?
Of course not. No way.
I got my Victory's used, would never pay full retail.
The closeout VX-6's are probably the best scope deal currently on the market, IMO.
