Biggest diff you will find is vx6 sell for a whole lot more money (probably 6-800 on average more). If i had a rifle that needed a scope this one would already be gone! Sorry to butt it;
Don't mean to hijack, but you could buy alumina-caps and throw lever and have the VX5HD outfitted for a lot cheaper than a VX6HD. VX5HD is a great value for only losing 3x on the high side.
Additionally, these come with the bikini style lens covers.
