    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I gotcha! I think I’m going to look at the 4.5-14 first, but I’ll check it out if I don’t like the 50mm obj. Hope you sell it quick! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    10-4, I’ll try to check it out. Not sure I can see that being a new member to the forum? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I very well may be, can I ask the reason you’re selling please? Only reason I ask is it may be something I haven’t thought of yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I thought the same about the issue I was having, but it did end up being the scope. I sent it off for repair, but after nearly missing shots 2 years in a row at deer even after sighting in the week before deer season, I’ve lost a lot of faith in that scope. With the same rings and mounts I have...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    Thank you very much for this info! I would dare say that I would be dialing maybe 2-3 times a year and that’s being generous. I want the ability to be able to do so, I absolutely do not do it all the time. It’s time for me a new scope and I simply want to buy one that is a little better suited...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I agree with that. I’ve only ever had redfield, bushnell and vortex really. Out of the 3 the vortex does best them out but it is also a 8-10 year newer scope as well. I’m definitely stepping back at this point and going to be going to more places and looking through several scopes Sent from my...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    Thank you! I’ve only ever shot this on target at 100 yards and even with the cheap vortex crossfire 2 I am grouping within a 1-1/2” circle no problem. Idk if y’all would consider this good but I’m perfectly happy with it. That does make sense about the ammo. I used to shoot federal fusion and...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I agree. Yes I have several places on our farm to practice at that distance and shoot deer if the circumstance was right. However, I do agree with you. If I was going to shoot that far or planning to shoot that far I would buy better ammo and start out small and work my way towards that...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I am looking at this particular scope right now. If it is something I have to save a little more to buy so be it, that is fine too. I had the 40mm objective on it before and it was not a problem, I just wanted to go bigger. No particular reasoning on that though. I have never looked into...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    My main goal in a scope is to be able to shoot near dark (not overly concerned with shooting 5 seconds before dark, if it’s too dim outside I’ll just go home) and still have enough light to make out what I am shooting. I plan to eventually go on an elk hunt or something similar where I may take...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I am shooting Hornady American whitetail (I know Not the best ammunition, but I am only shooting whitetail. If I go for elk it will be someone better) 150 grain interlock SP. muzzle velocity is 3275 fps. I’m not dead set on either scope honestly, I just have never experienced any other brand to...

    Leupold vx-3HD vs. Vortex Viper HSLR

    I have a .300 Win Mag that I have always had a Redfield Revolution 4-12x40 SFP scope on. It has since started to have a "floating" zero so I am wanting to upgrade. Currently I have a Vortex Crossfire II 4-12x44 SFP on it and its not bad I just want elevation adjustment in case I ever do go elk...
