New 2.4-12 Z5 looks pretty good Cam, had a fondle of one the other day and was tossing up between it and the 3.5-18, ended up with the 3.5-18 but only because I want to shoot a bit of steel every now...

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

To be fair when you really need a nightforce is when your down on a thar hunting trip and you trip and fall down a scree slope and get to the bottom thinking that's my week hunting buggered! You go...
