I’m looking at replacing my sufficient but boring Nikon Monarch 4-12x44 with a Leupold VX-6.
This will be on my AR-10 in 243 Win. I use it to shoot deer, coyotes, and targets.
I’ve already decided on the Leupold vx-6, so don’t say “you should get other brand x”.
What I can’t decide is the magnification. Should I get the 3-18 x50, or the 4-24 x52? -- Don't care about the price difference.
I think it would be sweet to go up to 24 power for long range (500+ yards) targets, and the occasional yote that hangs up, but having the 3x on the low side would give a wider field of view for those yotes that occasionally come out of nowhere and into your lap.
Anyone have any first-hand experience with either of these? I can’t even seem to get my hands on a vx-6 in the Fargo area…
