[QUOTE="jrkotz, post: 1696238, member: 24189"] I posted this on another thread - might be useful. I really like my Z3 and Z5s. The VX5 is a great option too. For a completely weight focused build - I go with the Leupold VX-2 CDS Ultralight 3-9x33 if memory serves me correctly it's about 9 oz. You may need to search the pre-owned/reseller marked to find one of these. Next would be the Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14x40mm CDS, weighing 13 oz Stepping up in optics and weight I like the Swarovski Z series. Z3 4-12x50 BT weighs 14.5 oz All of the models I mentioned have a quick adjust turret, but you can get them all without. I've been happy with all three on hunting setups to 500 yards. Good luck! Keep us posted on what you decide. [/QUOTE]
