Hello,

First post here. I stumbled across the forums while researching scopes for a youth (deer) rifle that I will be purchasing for my son in the future. I have not decided on a rifle yet, but I was thinking about grabbing a Vortex Viper 2-7x32 while the sale is on.

Anyone have any input as to whether this would be a good or bad idea?

Also, I am leaning toward the traditional V-Plex reticle, but I can see where the Versa Plex C3 may have its advantages, especially helping a young hunter with quickly centering the quarry in the scope. On the other hand, I am worried that it may be a bit too busy for a novice hunter. Suggestions?

Thanks.
