The Vortex Viper 3-9x40 scope arrived today from Doug at Camera Land(quick shipping as usual).My 1st impressions of the scope was that it seems well built externally,it is a tad on the heavy side compared to my VX II 3x9's. Seems similar in design to the Zeiss Conquest 3x9x40.Just finished some low light testing and the Vortex held a slight edge over the VX II. the Vortex seemed a bit crisper as well as a tad brighter.The eye relief as well as the "eye box" where better on the Leupold. I'll give a more in depth review and post some pictures after I get it out on the range and see how it tracks and how repeatable it is...
