    Bushnell is catching up on the warranty of their optics.i still like very much my xrs.
    But I had a couple of leupold Vx5 in my hands Friday, and the turret system is probably one of the best and simplest on the market at the moment for that price range.
    They are the way to go for your 0 to 600 m scope.
    Now I wish leupold was coming with a 4-20 vx5!

    Yea i see bushnell are now offering a lifetime warranty also, the vx5 turrets with zero stop are definitely better and lenes also now have a hydrophobic coating. The vx5 is slightly heavier and has a slightly smaller magnification, But has anyone put them side by side in low light conditions?
