I have 2 Leupold 6x42s both with Heavy Duplex: Reticle: a FXIII and a FX3. Both are clear and very good for low light. These have been for me the easiest to get behind and have an immediate full sight picture. For hunting, I highly recommend this scope. I will say that the HD reticle is my favorite for hunting and, as far as I know, Leupold does not offer this reticle anymore in the 6x42 (though it is an expensive add-on). If I were buying another 6x42, I'd buy a Meopta with #4 reticle. In fact this is exactly what I did and I do not regret the change. Very clear and that #4 reticle is great for all around hunting - especially during low-light. The Meopta is a little heavier and bigger but it hasn't been a negative for me in actual use (I hunt from treestands). Good luck with your choice.
