Killer post, Form. Funny how people think shooting three or four critters a year makes them know something about shooting.
Even funnier when the shooters think they know something about huntin.
Why does a guy have to be one or the other? Some of us are both.
I didn't read Jud's post as that a guy couldn't be both...
There's nothing wrong with preferring one sport over the other, or liking both equally. Not a damn thing wrong with any of it as long as Leupolds aren't used. Then you're just wrong.
Nobody take that seriously, please. Half my rifles have Leupolds on them.

LOL
To be clear, I wasn't trying to take a jab at Jud specifically, I was just laughing at the salty comments about hunters that never shoot and shooters that never hunt. There's a large segment of 'Fire members that is pretty passionate about both.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, Iβd rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

I know you weren't. It's all good, and nice to have a civilized conversation in the optics forum for once, even if for just a small portion of a thread.....
You're not kidding anybody. You love your neighbours to the north!
I do man, pard east of ya just texted this morning, his silver lab bitch just got bred, givin me pick of the litter, looks like Iβll be makin a extra trip up this year if they open the border

I have certainly done the Leupold shuffle a few times while sighting in, but I really want to see a great American company succeed. I have a couple of VX-5HDs waiting to be put to use. Have gotten as far as sighting in one of them, which was accomplished after bore sighting (the old fashioned eyeball method) in two shots. This is a video that Leupold just put out, and I found it interesting. https://www.leupold.com/leupold-core/stories/american-manufacturing-heritage
Oh fuuck weβre gonna see full meltdown mode now!!! πππ

I've only broken (1) MK4 fixed reticle,they ain't etched. Had 3.5-10x M3 not track. My Gen2 FFP Spotter Puked. Hint. Congratulations?!?
The MK4 16x's don't get shot much. The MK4 M3's 3.5-10x's are all gone(I think),excepting a 6x. The Spotter hasn't RE-Puked,but the $400 Bushy FFP crushes it. Hint.
Have had rather good luck with MK4 M1 10x's though. Have had purty good luck with MK4 M1 3.5-10x's.
Just sayin'.............

Da' Bushy's FFP Mil Reticle,absolutely fhuqking THRASHES the Reupold Gen 2,though I can "only" get 2000yds+++ out the front door. I tripped my 65mm Zeiss Spotter,just to gain the G2 reticle. Hint.
Closing distance on Woofs. I had a new rifle(wearing Reupold) and pard had 10x MQ with 130 JLK's and good DOPE.
Got too many fhuqking pictures and cain't locate the Bushy FFP Spotter images.
Just do it.
Hint.(grin)
Now as to the Reupold video,I'm fhuqking CRYIN'...LAUGHING soooooooooo fhuqking hard!!!
"Bullet hit objective and went into turret and worked fine".
Nary a word on Mechanics,then a 4.5-14x STOLE the "show" optically! HILARIOUS!!!
Bless their hearts.
Hint.
LAUGHING!...................

Regarding the op question of tracking in the vx5 hd, there is another thread on this forum about the military using them for sniper issue. Would they do so if they didn't track well?
Seems I've heard of guys buying their own equipment because they didn't find Uncle Sam's provision satisfactory.......who knows
