After having both I can safely say I will never own another friction adjustment scope.
Why not?

Perhaps I blame the scopes for my tracking inability but I had a Vx1 and M8 and would take the precise clicks of the Weaver over those any day. It seems everyone has ditched the friction adjustments and think there is a reason for that. Bottom line is if I am going to buy a scope it would be a newer one because the recent crop are just that much better overall so no reason for me to have friction adjustments.
