[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1279551, member: 64108"] Whoa, 30 MOA rings to get to 1,000 yards ?? Most cartridges can get there around 25 MOA ish. 30 is going to put you way in the top of your scope when you're on zero. I tried the VX-2 3-9x40 at 11oz but 2 of them wouldn't dial and the VX-3 CDS 3.5-10x is ~12oz but 3.5 was too high for my bottom end as well. I have one of the 2.5-16x50's and the glass isn't that great and the turrets are a little soft for me. If Wildcater says the newer 6500 glass is better I believe him, send it back if you don't like it. I'm currently running a VX-6 2-12x for a lightweight and am fairly happy with it, but the 3-18x44 is only a couple oz heavier. [/QUOTE]
