I think the percieved difference is more likely to do with the size of the scope etc rather than the glass inside which is more than likely the very same, it seems to be a trend ie: the 2-8x36 vx3...

I have asked the same question of the ones that know. Apparently so. Sent from my SM-A025F using Tapatalk

Just Saying .... :) My opinion is the number one priority is holding zero over many shots, hot, cold, knocks and "sh@t happens" within reason. Number two is that next time you go to fire at an...

I think we all understand Nightforce hardiness in the field. Unfortunately for many of us it is an unaffordable luxury way outside what we’d pay for a rifle, scope and accessories combined. For me...

If you watched one of duleys last episodes when the lass shooting a stag of a life time after seven days of hard core hunting ended up missing two easy shots because a scope got bent somehow and was...

I guess that's why there's a flashlight sticky too.

38 South I’ve got a non-HD 2-12 illuminated windplex as well. Agree that they are pretty hard to beat as an all rounder for everything from tight bush hunting through to 400+yd shots in open country....

Like I said I have both scopes referred to but with 42 and 50 mm objective lenses respectively, I don't observe any distinguishable quality in the glass but with the 3-18 you need to use the side...

As I have said before on here, I have the original VX6 2-12x42 ZL (no side focus,non HD), VX6 3-18x50 ZL (SF illuminated windplex) and VX3-18x50 ZL HD (SF illuminated duplex), comparing them at dusk...

Its interesting that the 2-12 VX6 like yours Cam have such good glass compared to the other vx6 models. When they were all non HD the 2-12 was streets ahead to my eyes. Sent from my SM-G986B...

Great thread Woody I did a test when shooting animals a few years ago with a Vx6 3-18x44 and a Vx6 3-18x50 on dusk, the difference was considerable when it came down to last couple of minutes of...

More than 7 is wasted , but not "any less than 7 is less than ideal". 7mm is the maximum. Not everyone can do 7mm, and as people age, eyes can no longer open to 7mm. therefore quite often even a 7...

Larger tube is helpful for two things - housing larger internal parts for more adjustment range, and slightly stronger scope when you have ever-increasing larger and more glasses inside. When you...

But the question is, why? Fitting all the electronic shit in and maximising elevation adjustment and maybe better accomodating a bigger objective lens. I think.
