While we're waiting on that e-mail,what other brands of scopes do you have access to?

![]() Marc,have you looked at this scope:
This scope is on par (and some say better) with the VXIII and close to the Conquest. Because of the quality of the lenses/coatings it is very good in low light. I didn't think of it before because I took for granted that it would be alot longer and heavier than the Viper,but not so.

That makes more sence to me now. I was just looking at the 3200 1.5-4.5 Fire Fly, what are they like? The rainguard looks like a great feature, although the scope is heavy for that power, and there aint much ER neither. I don't even know which scope would best fit my rifle. it a Remington 7600, just curious for mounting length. I pretty set on going with the Heavy Duplex, How much better is the VX3 1.75-6x32 compared to the VX II 2-7x33? What I mean by better is, quality, glass, ruggedness, repitability etc |

Yes I have looked at the 4200's I'd like to stay with a lower powered scope no bigger that a 2x. I hunt hardwoods out of a ground blind in the mourning, and I've seen deer come out to me no further than 10 to 15 yards. I would think a 3x would be to much.

Your finding out something that we've talked about on here before and that's that there aren't alot of choices in low power variable scopes with low light reticles. DARN SHAME! Problem is you can't get the VXII 2-7x32 with the heavy plex. If they did I would have gotten one instead of my VXIII.
You say you looked at that 3200. It's a GOOD scope that w/the Fire Fly works very well in low light and the Rainguard does work. 3.6" of eye relief is not all that short. My VXIII is 3.7" on 6x and it's never bothered me on my lt. wt. .300. Could you be satisfied with 4.5 power on the top end? I've taken deer a well over 200yds with a fixed 4x. How far are your longest shots?
What cartridge do you shoot?
