    No I'm not comparing model to model however I am trying to compare magnifications especially the lower one which is the more useful setting in the bush.
    And in the main if you look at scopes 2x or 2.5x as their lowest settings and compare 1 inch tube non IR scopes to those with IR you tend to go from around 12oz to around 17oz.
    I guess that's where the technology is at the moment.
    And to be clear I'm not knocking any of the 17oz+ scopes and there may well be exceptions to the above.
    The VX3 3.5-10 twilight hunter is a lovely scope and I'm tempted however it's lower magnification is the wrong side of 3 for me. If one came along second hand though.....
