    The vx3 4.5-14×42 cds is a brilliant scope for stretching the legs a bit, the cds dial is great for extended ranges and is a accurate when making adjustments.
    Highly recommend doing the zero stop mod on it too.
    It's lighter than the vx5 and it gives away a little bit of low light performance to the vx5.
    I have one on my light weight hunting rifle a 270wsm and it's a bloody good combo.
    Can I suggest you are better off borrowing the forum chrono and getting someone to help you make a drop chart.
    Keep the original dial as the custom dials are only good if your shooting flat.
    If your shooting up hill or down hill it alters your trajectory you are better off with a range finder that gives equivalent horizontal distance or ""TBR" as it is called in some brands.
