I asked at our sportsmans show and they said a month to month and a half after the shot show.

Pretty sure the lower of the two was $1499. One was $200 more. They weren't interested in talking so I don't know what the difference was.
I talked to them as well and they acted like I didnt need to know when they would be out. As in they'll be out when they're out. I've been high on Leupold for many years but I do not like what I'm seeing now. As much as I want one of the new 4-20 scopes I think I'll be moving on. Now I need to figure out what to get
I agree. I was a big luppy guy for years but have sold most off. Only have a couple left. I was waiting for the new VX5 4-20 scope to come out, I was going to give it a try because I really like that Mag range. was disappointed when I seen it was going to be a 34mm tube. So I moved on an bought a Ziess V4 6-24x50 for a gun I needed a scope on. So glad I did what a nice scope for its price range.

I've been trying like hell to find reviews on that V4 to no avail. What's ur thoughts on it? (Negatives/positives). I have two of the HD5's from them and am fairly happy but do fight focus at times. Mostly parallax trying to keep target and crosshairs both focused.
I shot quite a bit behind a friends before I bought mine. I have had no problems with the focus/parallax. Glass is great. Tracking so far seems to be great. They have been out a little over a year now and researching online shows almost no complaints on tracking/ problems with scope.
In a hunting scope I like low profile reliable turrets/zero lock , capped windage and more of a compact scope/ lighter weight. The V4 fills all these requirements. Unless you want to triple up your money and go with a March which are awesome!
I have several scopes of different brands all different price ranges, but IMO the V4 I think you are getting a lot of scope for the price range
Redhawks prices are hard to beat.

I had a v4 and it's pretty decent, but compared to my vx5hd the glass is really lacking.
This is most noticable in low light, the v4 would get blurry about 5 minutes before the vx5, and the image is no where near as crisp in my opinion.
I haven't done a tracking test with either one but it's on my list.
Leupold told me June for the vx5 4-20
