[QUOTE="2Old2Care, post: 2596701, member: 121800"] I have both. The VX 5HD has a much larger field of view, top end glass, and my go-to hunting scope for most situations, especially on rifles that I use regularly. I've had ones with a very stiff power ring, which cost me extra to add a power ring lever, but worth the expense for such top quality glass. The VX3 HD is a good scope and I've put them on two lightweight mountain rifles to save 4-5 ounces and a few dollars. They also come with a power ring stud which is a nice feature, but to me they are definitely a step down from the 5HD. In both cases, I use the 30mm tube models with side parallax adjustment, so I'm doing an apples to apples comparison. I also prefer the Windplex model, though I do have a couple with the standard Duplex; all with CDS. My vote is; Go 5! [/QUOTE]
