[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1281125, member: 64108"] Here is an example of the VX-6 3-18x50 with target turrets on my LW rig. The tall turrets and bigger objective make it not very compact, for the size of the rifle it looks like my ATACR so I am replacing it with a VX-6 2-12x42 I got from Ebay for $620 new, not a fan of the fire dot duplex, it's a bit thick of cross hair for my taste but it was cheap. I probably won't shoot much past 600 yards with this gun, if you shoot a lightweight rig you know they require more focus on technique, etc. so this scope should be fine. Note the picture of the target dial vs the standard dial height. The TT gives 2 turns(40 MOA) with a zero stop and can still use the turret caps while the standard CDS single height dial will not fit under the caps and if you use the zero stop you only get 20 MOA. This is not the new line of VX-6 so they may be different. For this gun I would still like a VX-3i 3.5-10x40 for a more compact and lighter weight(1" shorter & 5oz less)but the 3.5 low power is higher than I would like. A 2-10x would be ok. [/QUOTE]
