[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1831540, member: 101859"] Do not have blind trust in any scope. Test it. And every season. Keep in mind a VX-5 is over 10oz lighter than a NXS I tried to talk Swaro/Kahles into making us a long range hunting scope in that weight range that was reliable like their Kahles scopes. Theres a reason we dont have a rock solid light weight scope, it is a trade off at this point in time anyhow. I am a big fan of the VX-5 and have tested a few of them and was satisfied with my results. But they are used when weight is a main concern and recoil is mild. Serious long range rifles are typically larger calibers, or at least should be, and weight is not the main concern. In those cases I use NF or Swaro/Kahles [/QUOTE]
