[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2808465, member: 8394"] If I were only needing essentially a 1-5 I'd probably be trending towards the vortex 1-6 razor gen2e. While my 1-6 has also been reliable there is a lurking concer my light weight 375 beats its to death. Im leary of vortex from using that warranty just a smidgen to much on a viper, but from the sounds of things the 1-6e is near bomb proof and would split the weight between the two. Just ordered one on a sale a few weeks ago so haven't put it through the ringer. It would get you down to 30mm rings a simple sfp for 3 gun and pretty durable reputation. Might be worth a consideration. Having had a nx8 Xtr2 and the gen one 1-8 trijicon, they all suffer from eyebox sensitivity and darkening above 6.8-7x ish. Still usable and obviously the market has accepted it, but the 1-6 segment seems to skirt this. I like the mark 5 HD line. The 2-10 just bummed me out. Love My lr scopes, but also really appreciate the diverse capacity a 2-12/10 has. Have really wanted a mpvo that utilizes 2x on the low end(what we all though was fast before 1x came out) with a bigger light gathering objective. It would also be nice to have real trajectory turrets and a capped windage because let's be frank windage is our most subjective variable. A ffp reticle that's donut of death on low power and a consistent tree as the zoom increases would help for speed wind holds. For lazy reasons leupold kept the 35mm tube but instead of using a 42 or 40mm objective they went 32... so it's a massive tubed side focus 2-10 that's almost as heavy as a 3-18. Never mind the jump from 24 to 32 while not trivial is a far cry from lenses they make in other lines. Had they engineered a decent 30mm or even 34mm turret and added parallax to the vx5 2-10 I'd of been stoked. But alas leupold pulled another leupold. Aside from that the 3.6-18 and 5-25 are pretty solid rigs, I'd say leupolds best work in 10 years. [/QUOTE]
