Hi Guys,
It seems lots of you are in the market for VX5s, I had convinced myself that I wanted a 2-10x44 cds as I like the idea of an elevation turret without messing around with parallax adjustment, but looking at costs they are almost as much as the 3x15 anyone used both?
Looking for an informed opinion before I take the plunge....
Thanks Dave.
Yeah, I had the 2-10 and have the 3-15. Awesome scopes. If I did it again I'd have just stuck with the 2-10. I convinced myself I wanted to do more target shooting with the rifle. Never happened. Unless you are pushing way out or struggling with eye sight 10 power is plenty
Oh I am looking at one too so good timing
I pickwd the 2-10. If you check the specs you will see it has more elevation adjustment than the 3-15.
10* is plenty to get you accuracy beyond 600 and is more light efficient than *15. If I could afford a second vx5 it would also be a 2-10*
Maybe a packdeal to be had with double purchase?Quote:

Mine (2-10*44) has the zl2 turrets and illuminated reticle. Would love another one.
Ok so I reckon if we approach this smart we could get a ripper deal. So want me to get a price on 4?
I'm in...Quote:

Damn it. I would be in but just bad timing cash wise.
I’d be interested in a scope mate.Quote:

I'd be keen on the 1-5 with zl2 of its worth enquiring with your group buy
If the scope is going on a hunting rifle that you anticipate using at 0-300m most of the time then the 2-10 would be better.
The 2x magnification on the low end is excellent for close range shots, any animals shot under 50m you would benefit from 2x and the firedot reticle.
If you were taking most of your shots at 100-400m+ then I'd say go for the 3-15.
I really wish Leupold still did the firedot windplex reticle, it in the 2-10 would be awesome, unfortunately they dropped it when they went to the VX6hd.
+1 windplex firedot is the dreamQuote:

6?
I got a price from another forum member who had been in touch with the aforementioned supplier but need to confirm that. Was alot cheaper than the green bandits by a a fair chunk but will see if that price is still valid and if we can improve
I run a 2-10 on my 308.
The clarity and lack of weight makes up for the lack of magnification.
I had a crack at a goat out of my 308 at 605y.
Landed the bullet right at his feet.
Did I feel undergunned optically? Hell no.
What a scope! Would happily buy another !
Who wanted one of these again??
Not at your price :P
keen to hear price- have pmd you
2 budgies ;)Quote:
