    Compare the 2 Scopes

    Trying to decide between the 2.
    Picking up rifle from APR this weekend. Have done quite a bit of research here but It's down to nut cutting time
    Is it worth it to spend 430$ more on the 5HD? Be honest! Thanks for all the info.

    #170712 Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14x50mm SF CDS 30mm Wind-Plex Matte Riflescope - 560.00$

    Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x44mm CDS-ZL2 Side Focus Matte FireDot Duplex
    990.06$

    I can't contribute on the VX5 but I do have a VX3 4.5-14 x 40mm. I used to have that same scope in a 50mm. I do not miss the 50mm, IMO the 4.5-14x40 is the perfect hunting scope in regards to light weight and clarity. Plus since you can get by with lower rings allowing for better eye alignment.

        The VX3i is pretty good for the price but the HD5 is noticeably better.

          You can shave $150 off that VX-5 here when you add it to your cart. Bought all my Leupold from here.



          I have both scopes. Go ahead and get the VX-5

              You're putting this on a custom rifle. Get the best you can afford. Pay once cry once. I wish I could have learned tbis many years ago.

              They're both good but I'd go with the vx5.

                  Don’t think you’d be disappointed with either but a custom rifle deserves best. Optics planet has it for about $100 less

                    I own the VX5HD and it is the better option in my opinion. You can get the windplex in the 5HD if you prefer that reticle.

                            They were in stock earlier today.

                            They were out of stock on my last purchase. I went ahead and put myself on the waiting list. Not more than 2-3 days later they notified me they had more and had mine shipping out.
