RE: Leupold VXI
Nikon Buckmasters, Pentax Pioneer, Burris Fullfield II, Sightron SII, Browning Buckmark are all as good or better than the VX-2...and the same price as the VX-1 you are considering.
The Bushnell 3200 has good glass, too, but there have been reports of those and the 4200 series having internal fogging problems in wet climates.
IMHO, the VX-1 is an overpriced POS and shouldn't be given the slightest consideration.
