[QUOTE="Another Casual, post: 1939164, member: 89878"] I have an SHV and like it. As others have said, the glass on my VX-5HD is noticeably better and I prefer the exposed locking turret with zero stop for hunting. My 4-14x56 SHV is on my target gun and at 27 ounces plus rings I don't think it would go on a hunting gun for me. I test fit it on my lightweight hunting rifle and it was top heavy. The 3-10 and 4-14x56 have no zero stop. I 3-d printed a washer that goes under the turret and acts as a zero stop by limiting downward travel. Otherwise I like it and the MOAR reticle is excellent. If you are frugal (like me) you can wait for a 10% off day at Cabela's, use discount giftcards, and a cashback site to chain up the discounts. I got mine for about $700 two years ago. Other than the lighter 3-15 VX-5HD (<20 oz) for hunting, I think it is the best scope in that price range. [/QUOTE]
