For the first time since I have been comparing optics I looked through a Vortex that was about as clear as my Bushnell 6500 4 1/2-30X50 with both on 20X. That's its maximum magnification. It is a Vortex Razor with a 35mm tube. I think it starts at 4X or 5X. I didn't get a chance to thoroughly adjust the ocular, but did get to adjust the side focus. But even if I was allowed to adjust it to my heart's satisfaction, it still only goes to 20X.
When I put mine on 30X I could read the word "official" on a target 100 yards away. The letters are less than 1/4" tall and the spaces are about .025". I continually get post sold on my choice.

Blacktailer,
There should have been a comma after "New experienced". Sorry 'bout that.

What scope is that? I wonder how much they go for?

Savage_99,
I purchased one a couple months ago for $685. I saved $150 by spending about an hour on the net going from "store" to "store". At my income level $150 is a chunk of change.

So far, I've learned the context in which to use the term "Lickspittle".
I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

Great exchange in a movie:

The price is reassuring that the optics would be stellar. I wonder how it would hold zero on a cold bore two shot group as that is the true way to check hunting accuracy.

The New experience was I never saw a Vortex with glass as good as my Bushnell 6500 4 1/2_30X50.

So far, I've learned the context in which to use the term "Lickspittle". I missed this the first time through. Thanks for pointing it out. And in a sentence... The fawning lickspittle was Harry Potter's favorite sycophant.
