Late to this thread. Just got back from a hunting trip.

Yes, I have a Schmidt on my hunting rifle and love it. In spite of the fact that it lacks "diamond hard coatings" etc.

Here's a S&B 10X42 PMII with adjustable turrets that you can get for roughly the same as a VX6. About $1800 new and $1500 used. The scope is bombproof, the glass is amazing and the clicks are absolutely repeatable.

I'm telling you, these scopes will spoil you.

Even Eremicus won't enjoying shooting a Leupold after he gets one.....
