Like to hear experiences from folks who have a scope in this new line from Leupold. Looking to hear about the VX-R line as well as the VX-R Patrol.
Both are 30mm tube, and as best as I can discern the only difference is you get a mil-based reticle and matching turrets if you go the Patrol route.
I've got a Marlin 1894 .44 mag that one of the 1.25-4 would fit well on that rifle. Also have considered the same scope for my M&P 15-22.
This is a slight tangent, but how useful can a ranging reticle be in a 4x scope that might be used for 3 gun or 2 gun competition?
My logic is: why pay the extra for the vx-r patrol when you can get the vx-r 1.25-4 with the german #4 that is probably very quick at target acquisition?
Thanks
