I have a 6x42 I like pretty well. Not in love with the reticle but it is fairly bright and simple. I bought it for the kids/girls rifle just because it was simple. It seems like everyone wants a higher zoom ratio, which just seems a bit pointless to me.

The 6x36 has been and remains Dog Schit from inception,as compared to the 6x42. Hint. The 6x42 is best(like everything else Reupold),without A/O. The 1/8" erectors are fhuqking tender JUNK. The most recent versions,are cost cutting measures and Dog Schit. Hint. "Shimming" ring halves,is about THE dumbest fhuqking thing you can do to a rifle. Hint. Were Reupold to go back to better internals and couple the 6x42 with an etched MQ reticle,they'd have something worthy. Hint. But...alas. Hint. LAUGHING!.................. Shimming ring halves worked just fine on my rifle......shot 1.1" at 200 yds.......deer near 300 yds did not argue....DRT........ The upside was the lower rings allowed my face to get a decent cheek weld vs taller rings. And......I also have a 6x33 FX-II, some use 2-7x33, same objective for a 7x and owners rarely complain. My 6x33 works just fine, M1 and standard Duplex.......owned many 42s, no complaints, but I like svelte. If it works...........it works. Last edited by 65BR; 11/15/20.

Read that again. Now one more time. HINT. "Tactical" cardboard ring shims?!? You CLUELESS Drooling Fhuqktards never disappoint,by simply doing your BEST! Hint. LAUGHING! Now to solve a concentricity issue,one can certainly shim a base with a non-malleable/weatherproof spacer(non cardboard!) and eccentric Signature rings. It's an easy solve for concentricity woe(s) and added inclination. Read that again. Now one more time. Hint. LAUGHING! Bless your heart for sharing your BEST though! Hint. LAUGHING!.......... Ms. Myrth, I've never seen one. Google says that they are BDC,which is a Goat Fhuqk? Hint. LAUGHING! Perhaps with a shift to a turret,which aligns it's (1) MOA elevation erector graduations,it might could be pressed into service? That despite the erector travel being rather trite,given it's 30MM tube. HINT. Or so Google tells me. Hint. LAUGHING!................. CryLee, Your Brokedicktitude and STUPIDITY precludes you from even a FIRST fhuqking clue...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!? Fortunately for you,Imagination and Pretend are free,so you can "afford" to "contribute". Hint. LAUGHING! Do NOT "forget",that imitation is THE most Sincere form of Flattery. Hint. Bless your heart for Crying and Trying though! Hint. LAUGHING!............... Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

I bought it for the kids/girls rifle just because it was simple. It seems like everyone wants a higher zoom ratio, which just seems a bit pointless to me. Yep indeed. The trend seems to be bigger scopes. One young bloke who joined our deer club for a while put a 5-25 scope on his .30-06 for deer and then shot four times at a red stag at 100m ................and missed four times. He finally hit it on the fifth shot which was probably a lucky shot judging buy his previous shooting skills. My mates have a bit of a laugh at me for buying fixed scopes and none will try one themselves. They are all convinced they are hindering themselves and most won't even buy a 2-7 or 2.5-8 variable even, as they think a 7x or 8x magnification is still not enough to shoot a deer. I was sad to see Leupold get rid of the 4x33 and 6x36 but I can't really blame them when not many people are buying them anymore.

PLEASE cite a Thread,where I've EVER replied to you,less your initially hitting on me to no avail. HINT. Laughing! Bless your heart,for doing the best you can,with what INCREDIBLY little you "have" to "work" with. Hint. LAUGHING!................ Elvira, That's it! Your testimony is gonna have me givin' a fixed power scope a try,if only for the first time! Hint. GREAT Story too! LAUGHING!................. math', It's Irons or BUST for me! A Leupold 6-36x sounds pretty good to me though! Hint. LAUGHING!.................... Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.
