The VX-3 4.5-14x50mm 30mm SF had become my "go-to" glass for hunting rifles over the last few years.

I picked up a VX-3i 4.5-14x50mm 30mm SF for a rifle this week. It's a bit crisper, but so far, I haven't seen anything that really jumps out as hugely improved. It didn't convert the VX-3 into a VX-6, I can say that.

The VX-3i 4.5-14x50mm 30mm SF is now my "go-to" rifle scope for hunting rifles, taking the place of its predecessor.

I'm a little disappointed that they didn't convert to the 1/8MOA clicks as they had been teasing this winter.

There's also a 2nd release planned for mid-year (so I've been told), which will include more magnification ranges as well as an update to the Handgun Scope (VX-3i 2.5-8x32mm).

I begged and pleaded for them to include a VX-3i Handgun scope with Side Focus parallax adjustment, maybe a 30mm tube, but no such luck it seems. Not enough people stretch their handguns out far enough to warrant such a scope.
