I have an old (late 80's-early 90's???) Leupold vx-2 2-7x33 and was looking at the newer vx-3i's either in 2.5-8x36 or 3.5-10x40. I like the 2-7's low weight (9.9 oz), but these newer scopes are only slightly heavier (11.5 and 12.5 oz)
obviously would gain a little low light advantage from moving to 33 to 40 objective; but beyond that is the new glass/coatings worth the upgrade (read $)
thanks in advance
