VX-6 glass is wonderful. It's not a target scope, just a hunting scope. Even with CDS, how much is it gonna get twisted?
The VX-6 Duplex is one of the best, IMO.
And, it costs half or less than an Alpha Euro. If it develops a problem, CS is world class, although it can be aggravating having to send one back.
I've sent more Swaro and Kahles rifle scopes back for problems than Leupolds. They mostly went back for reticle change, CDS fitting, etc.
DF I believe that. That's why so many of my scopes where the gold ring. FB, very nice looking rifle. Pat has WC860 in stock for under $9.00 a pound. It is my GOTO powder for the STW. http://patsreloading.com/patsrel/prices.aspxIt requires hot primers, and a full case, think FED215 or REM 9 1/2. Watch the Nosler Proshop for the 160gr NAB seconds. That's about all I feed mine, but you might have to try the 168gr LRAB's while they have the seconds in stock. http://www.shootersproshop.com/nosl...nd-long-range-7mm-168gr-blems-100ct.htmlOnly 7 left, if you want them I'd hurry.
You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.

OK, you guys are great. I went ahead and ordered 200 of the Nosler 168 LRAB. Thanks so much for the links and insights, one and all! An interesting point about spinning turrets. How often will I be doing it? Hard to say. A few dozen times a summer in prep for season??? I can imagine spinning once and shooting several shots at one setting. Always trying for the first shot hit. I can shoot pretty darn good to 600 w/o much effort, so this seems like the system that will take guesswork out of the holdover. Lots to learn on wind doping, but thankfully the numbers are readily available. I'll just need to learn the estimation and application. I'm having fun already. I need to sell one more rifle to pay back savings for this little fiasco if you know anyone that's looking. http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/9424207/1
