Thread: Leupold VX6 2-12x42

I'm looking at the above scope for my 260, any hands on feed back from kiwis?
With the new Zero Lock is there still the wind plex option? What's the thickness of cross hairs like?
How good is the eye box, especially on high power?
Lack of parallax an issue if shooting to 600m only (At deer)?

taihape price I hope

I have hardly used mine but so far very impressed.
Eyebox is great better then the 3.5-18 vx6
parallax will be no problem if you have constant cheek weld.

Best thing i like is on low power i can see my suppressor its like playing a video game

I echo Buzz's comments comments about Leo's and about where to buy.... and Leopold's are awesome, but just to add a contrary view to the thread the quality of the Sightron s tac 3-16x42 is little bit better magnification range and the low light and CDS style dials on the turrets and sidefocus from 9 yards make it a good alternative - Glass F ing amazeballs!!

I chose the MOA reticle and the centre dot is .25 moa at 16x mag which is great too... @Thar has gone with the simple duplex crosshairs @ around $900 I thought it was pretty good even for a frugal bastard like me and pounced. It glass wise is really similar to my mates HD5 - I was pretty shocked...

I should have said, I already have a 3-15 Zeiss HD5 with turres and parallax. As this would be a bush and Tops rifle I wanted to get away from the paralax.
