The vx-1 on my .30-06 did fine by me again this year. Killed a nice 7 point with it last Saturday. Originally zeroed this rifle/scope/ammo combo 2 years ago and when I checked it prior to this season it was still right there. Checked the one on my .223 the same day. It also was still right on and grouping at .5" as usual. Had another scope puke on me out of the blue just a couple weeks ago. That one a 4x Bushnell Banner I purchased new back in 1989. I reckon I got my moneys worth out of it.
