You'd be wrong.

well I have to know why you would say that because it makes no sense. It implies that a thin, easy to lose at dark or in a thicket reticle with superb glass is better than OK glass like the VX-6 glass, and a good easy to find aiming point, again what is your point? and we are talking a Z3 here, not their expensive scopes.



I've had numerous VX3 duplex, VXIII duplex, FX3 heavy duplex, and a couple of VX6 duplex scopes off the top of my head, in the field with various hunter's (and my own) S&B Summit, Z5, Z3 (my own), Diaviari, and a 5-25NF something or other. While the argument can be made that all of these have better glass than my Leupy's mentioned (it's arguable in the VX6's case though, IMO) the various reticles in these euro wonder scopes sucked, in very poor light and especially up against a brushy background. I could use the Leupy heavy duplex longer than any of them.

I'm not guessing, you obviously are.


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
