[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1282849, member: 70559"] In side by side comparison on an optics chart the VX-6 4-24X52 beat the z5 5-25X52 by about 1X. That means Whatever I could see in the VX-6 on 10X the z5 needed 11X. That held true clear to their top magnification settings. Neither was better than the other on antlers in the low light comparison. The VX-6 seemed to give better colors than the z5. I never noticed the z5 not be great until I got the VX-6. The weight was 23 oz against 18 oz, though. The reticle in the z5 was better for precision work while the VX-6 was more visible in low light. [/QUOTE]
