A big consideration for me, also, was that I want this scope to do double-duty on my .325 BLR. I have to mount scopes as low as they'll go on that rifle due to the comb. In extra-lows a 3.5-10x40 wouldn't clear the barrel.
I think you made a GREAT choice!
Thanks Jeff, I just ordered it 10 minutes ago, so we'll see
. I was going to by one thur nsaqam, but he said his source was out and on backorder. I checked midway and they are on backorder now and I ordered one yesterday and my order was taking a while processing and I started to panic
. I've been eyeballing one on ebay for $476.00 with free priority mail shipping so I bought it. Now If I don't like them I'll be chit out of luck I guess. I've heard the new VX3 is a pretty damn fine scope and I'll put them to the test
