I’ve about gave up on lightweight scopes I’ll take the extra 6 ounces go NF SHV especially if your gonna dial..
This or a nxs compact. I like to Use a light mountain rifle and a reliable scope like a nightforce and you will still be under 7 pounds. I’m surprised by all the Leupold recommendations and I don’t doubt everyone’s experience. Maybe I’m just unlucky but haven’t had good results with the VX3i scopes.
Unlucky or something else. Thing is most manufacturer's make a scope that would work fine in the OP's situation. I don't believe any scope's weight is good or bad, just depend's on who you ask. Same about the size, I like the small size, it's just me! You could usr a 6x as someone said and if it works for you, who am I to say it doesn't work? But I really like my small scopes, seem's the rifle is easier carrying and easier shooting. See that may be right or wrong depending on who you talk to!
