My 3 was ok but I fucked up and got a LR...side parallax in a hunting scope is a waste of time literally!.

But the 6 is way better optically, is the 3i equivalent glass wise? I haven't looked threw a 3i

in short no its good but it doesn't compare to a VX5 or 6 in low light conditions. don't get me wrong still very good

you are welcome to look thru my Vx3i 2-8, it aint no VX5 but it works better than the NF, Vx3LR and VX6, no dial up and no parallax. Simple is good

then get the vx3i CDS, this is what I have and lets put it another way....I've had a vx5hd CDS and I don't feel the need to upgrade my vx3i CDS. It's good enough, you might loose 15-20 minutes at the beginning or end of the day with fading light but that's a worst case scenario.

Trouble is is that that is the best part of the day hunting wise.
Hard to go back from good glass.

No you wont,and you never will untill you hunt with someone with better glass and they can see and you cant, then you will look threw their glass and be like "Oh I see NOW'

VX6 2-12 with cds then. They are a great straight forward 'scope. Like mine a lot.
