Ringman,
I have VX6 and it's a 30mm tube. It's a very good scope and I love the illuminated reticle as you can turn it down late in the evening, but I don't think my VX6 is capable of allowing me to see 20 minutes past what I could see in the my old Leupold Vari-x II that it replaced, and that is why I was wondering about the VX5. Of course, my VX6 is a 40mm objective, not 56mm
Does the VX5 have any special coating or light gathering coatings that a 3 year old VX6 wouldn't have?
One day I am going to buy myself (Maybe in two years when I start collecting my Reserve retirement) the best low light scope and binoculars available.
Dan
