[QUOTE="packgoatguy, post: 2424546, member: 27192"] My apologies for not updating the list. I hadn't seen a lot of activity on it, so I had assumed that not many folks found it very helpful. If you are looking for lightweight scopes, my favorite one of late is the Vortex Razor LHT 4.5-22x50 MOA. At under 22oz, it has FFP reticle, illuminated reticle, Christmas tree style reticle, zero stop, capped windage, and an impressive zoom range. It will be replacing my swaro z5 3-18, as the extra features for a 6oz weight penalty are more than worth it on my hunting rifles. Like the above poster, I like the looks of the SWFA ultralight, but am a bit nervous about the limited eye relief. The leupold 1.5-4x20 vx freedom with the MOA ring reticle looks interesting at a similar weight and better eye relief. For me, it would be going on a sub 6lb 308win. I also think the leupold vx3hd 1.5-5x20 with cds could be a winner, but it needs a bdc or something other than the duplex reticle. [/QUOTE]
