AK - Military/1st responder discount - 50% off MSRP through the end of the month.
Thanks for the responses so far
Leupold would probably be 2nd hand, but available in that range or a little less.
I just picked up a lightly used 3-15 LHT in great shape for $850. But not $800 or NIB.
That discount would be sweet.
The military discount is actually 55% off MSRP through May. So, $801.90 for the 3-15 LHT.
Since I already have a couple 3-15 LHT's, I'm kickin' around snagging 12x50 Razor UHD binos @$1150 for the truck.
Good thought! That’s exactly what I did with the Tract 12x50s when they had their Christmas sale. I try to never pay full retail for anything, especially optics.

I've had both. Not that it counts for much, but I thought the glass was better on the VX-5's. It's come down to which reticle I preferred. I No longer have any of either of those scopes.

I No longer have any of either of those scopes. I do have a growing cache of NF 3-10's, though.
I had Jon LaCorte from Tract join me on my Livestream yesterday and, as we were going over his product line, I realized that I have sorta forgotten about his 1" Toric scopes. They are MOA only, I think, which is why they do not pop up on my horizon a lot. In terms of optomechanical quality, these are in the same conversation as the VX-5 and HD-LHT. Toric lacks illumination, but the reticles are reasonably well sized. If we look at the 3-15x models, in terms of center field resolution, I think HD-LHT is a little better than the other two, but aside from that, optical performance is pretty close. If you are OK with MOA and do not care about illumination, these cost meaningfully less than VX-5 or HD-LHT.
