[QUOTE="wilkup, post: 1139951, member: 74276"] I got a chance to check out a VX-R yesterday with the CDS and the windplex reticle. It was the 4-12x50 and I was blown away how bright it was after dark! The sales guy let me take it outside to look around and while it wasn't like my VX6, it was surprising how much light it gathered. More than enough for me and what I plan to use it for. The windplex is pretty neat too. I just wish there were an option to use the CDS freebie on what turret of your choosing, cuz I'd prefer the m1. I also took a look see through a VX3 with the varmint hunter reticle and have changed my mind on that setup. The marks for wind are tough to see against anything dark (anything I'd shoot at) and so unfortunately that just won't work. My interest has been peaked by that VX-R for sure but Leupold does have the $100 off any VX3 glass going right now.... So I could go with a 30mm VX3 4.5-14x50 with side focus and windplex for a pretty good deal right now, but no illumination. Choices, choices, choices [/QUOTE]
