Pictures sort of suck. It's hard to take a pic thru a scope. Distortion to the sides is due to me. I tried to take pics at diff. apperatures and iso. to show the best I could.
Scope is better than my Mark4s and VX-3s. Had it out at 6:25 pm est. No problem to 400 at 12x. Got really clear at 8x at dark. My eyes and the exit pupil thing...
Is it worth the money over a VX-3? Don't know. Is it in the same class as a MK4? Definitely.
Firedot will be the stuff in the woods at dark.

I just ordered a VX6 today as well, the 1-6x multigun with Firedot SPR reticle. They're impressive scopes for sure. Your daughter has a nice setup!

would you be so kind to snap a pic of the turrets with the covers off,,
I am glad to see this,Leupold had let some other scopes catch up and even pass them up,it looks like they finally did something to take some market back,,

Crap pics. Bad light. Bad photographer...
Top dial will have CDS with zero stop. Should get her to 700+, but she shoots only to 200 now. She's 9.
Room to grow...

Thanks guys. She didn't like the VX-III 4.5x14x40 LR B&C reticle that was on it. It confused her.
I think she'll like this.
