I have 12 or 13 of the VX-3's. Where does that put me? Plus I have a bunch of old Redfield Accutrac scopes on AR's, 22's, 22 magnums. I'm scared to know!!!!! No Hell, but you have a 5 1/2" schwanz. It works, but step aside when the real men enter the room.

you missed a helluvalot (and for that you will burn in Hell)
you failed to say anything good about old school Weavers and Redfields... so you are gonna burn in Hell fer sure til you fix that...
and how could you forget to mention the nuance of certain >>>insert name here<<< bases and rings that just look right on rifle "X" but not on rifle "Y"!!! Hmmm. I was counting on some of you to help out. Since I am the King of oddball scopes (one or more of everything) I will burn in the Hell of the cluttered shooting bench.

I need a scope with an objective lens the size of a 2 liter pop bottle and enough magnification for pick off Aboriginie midgets on the dark side of the moon when legal hunting is 1/2 hour before sunrise to 1/2 hour after sunset and most deer are shot under 100 yards here.
10 years ago when Leupold reigned king a guy took his Leupold 3x9 off of his 30-06 and drove every nail in the house he built with it and then remounted it and was still perfectly zeroed. The tube wasn't even scratched.

Killing a deer routinely requires a 400 yd shot threaded through an opening in the trees/brush the size of a keyhole 15 minutes after sundown. Oh and if you pass on a shot because it's after legal shooting hours or because you don't have a clear shot you go to hell.

It used to bother me that my bench and work tables were cluttered. I finally decided that since they were always cluttered that I must like it that way. So it doesn't bother me anymore.

You also go to hell if you don't trade up every time a new improved model is introduced.

Jack LOL. Anymore a guy hardly has time to mount and zero his scope before a newer model comes out.

I know little about optics. I don't talk eyeboxes or turning turrets. However, stay on here and you will find many more who know little about optics, but are self-anointed experts. Fortunately, there are a few real experts here as well. You will be able to tell the difference after a short time.

If you're binocular doesn't say Zeiss, Leica, or Swarovski, you can't see squat. There is no way in hades' that a $600 glass can see and do everything a $2000 glass can do. - or say a scope, so post long diatribes in belittling psuedo English showing multiple irrelevant pictures of rifles with Skull & Bones emblems on the stock -ridiculing those actually testing new products they dare to give a positive report. Thankfully, hadn't seen him in a while.
