[QUOTE="38 south, post: 1348398, member: 102972"] Have VX6 3-18 x 50 ZL with firedot windplex reticle and VX6HD 3-18 x 50 ZL2 with firedot duplex reticle. Firedot appears identical in both reticles and is very small at low levels of illumination in darkness but very effective. As ambient light level increases illumination must be set higher but the dot does not get excessively large as the eye adjusts to the greater level of ambient light. Regarding the post above; I also have a VX6 2-12 x 42 ZL with the firedot windplex reticle mounted on my Tikka M55 .243 and have shot 1.5 to 2.5 inch groups with it at 400 yds without any problem regardless of there being no side-focus. Upside of no side-focus adjustment is that its quicker to get a shot away. That said, if I were intending to shoot beyond 400 yds regularly I would probably go for the 3-18 x 50 due to magnification and light gathering ability. [/QUOTE]
