RevMike,

I have a lot of Leupold VX2 2-7X33 on my rifles. They work quite well and meet the lightweight set and hunt criteria. There a smidge under 10oz., very clear to my old eyes and have always held zero. Next for me is a VX3 2.5-8, a VX3i 2.5-X36, and a couple of VX2 3-9X40. The Burris Fullfield II 3-9X40 I have is a nice scope, but I find the VX2 3-9X40 a bit clearer and I prefer the eye relief of the Leupold. As slight as it might be, the Leupold is lighter than the Burris. On an ultralight rifle it is noticeable, minorly I admit, but it's still there. On a heavier rifle I wouldn't think it would be noticed.
I run the Leupold FXII 6X36 on 5 of my rimfires and the weight, length, clarity specifications places them head and shoulders above most others in my opinion. Mine sport custom crosshairs and parallax settings.
