Yeah, I guess the guys still using their Vari-x IIc's are really in trouble then.......... blush.....Maybe that's why I'd take one of the new VX3 4.5-14x40's (probably the one with CDS), use it and never look back..... wink : To answer the OP's original question......
Same here for the 4.5x14x40. I have the 30mm tube and 50 mm obj on another scope and would take the 40 mm obj any day. Just my choice but the 4.5 x 14 is a great scope.
