I've shot rifles with Zeiss and Swarovski. While they're nice, they're not nice enough over the VX-II to justify the price.
I shot my share of the bargain Tasco, Bushnell, etc... and they are crapola.
Get the VX-II and never look back.
Prob is the VX2 is not the VX-II of old. Secondly go price one of them...for the money you can do better. Again not a leupy basher but dollar for dollar they aint where its at anymore.
Decades ago they were the scope to get but many companies have caught up in quality but not in price.
