Hunt. Maybe an elk hunt. Not looking at a true mountain rifle. Don’t want the heaviest I can get but don’t have to have the lightest either.What do you want to do with this scope? So many options in each line.
I'd argue that probably wasn't actually an upgrade in glass at all. At best, a lateral move WRT glass, assuming you bought NXS or higher. But undoubtedly, that was a big upgrade in durability and reliability, which is much more important overall.I actually really like the VX 5hd. I ran the 3-15 for several seasons. I wanted to update glass and went Nightforce. That being said there wasnt anything wrong with the VX-5 and for where I often hunt it was perfect.
I have vx freedom and vx 3. I am sure any of what I had listed would be an upgrade.I'd argue that probably wasn't actually an upgrade in glass at all.

I went to the NX8 4-32. I do think at the end of the day that is better scope all around than the Leupold VX-5. Kinda two completely different beast. I do like zero stops on Leupolds though lol.I'd argue that probably wasn't actually an upgrade in glass at all. At best, a lateral move WRT glass, assuming you bought NXS or higher.
