RE: Which Leupold Scope? VXIII OR VXII
50mm will gather a bit more light in low light conditions,but you will need medium or high mounts.As far as vxII or vxIII I would opt for the vxII in the 3x9.The vx III has slightly better optics but I would buy the vxII.Ihave been using them for years and they are a great scope.
