Subject: SWFA 6x42 for 338 Win Mag?
Posted: May/14/2013 at 06:59
I was not impressed by my lynx VX series. My 3-9x40 on my 30-06 lost zero and the adjustments to left and right were way off, 6 clicks to one side and then 13 to the opposite to get it back to the same spot. The eye relief on mine was also very little. I found that the 6x38 is not as bright and sharp as scopes costing less than it, as we did a comparison with two or three other scopes in the same price range and lower. I might have a look at the LX2. Do you know how the LX 2 compares to say the Leupold FX3/VX3/VX2?
