Leupold VX 5-HD 3-15 vs Leupold VX 6-HD 3-18

[Coopershawk]

Any word on what reticles are coming in the VX-5HD? I really liked the 2-10X with Windplex (171388) for lightweight rigs. Leupold discontinued it already!? I got them for $599 and planned to replace a few 3.5-10 VX3's for the much better VX5 turrets. Hoping for a "Windplex lite" - cleaned up - similar to a Swaro 4W.

It really comes down to how many "nice to haves" you want and whether or not it's worth the price difference. For me, the VX-5HD with an Impact 29 reticle that is attainable for less than $800 is the better value.[/QUOTE]
That is why I have a leupold vx5hd with the impact 29 moa reticle, on my bergara B-14 300wm. I have not totaly siteded in yet but I have gotten 1/2moa groups at 200yds. I love the glass, and turret zero stop, and zero lock.
