Been looking for a new hunting only optic. I run mils on my other optics and prefer ffp but i also dont want a large heavy tactical scope. I like the idea of using an illuminated duplex, like the firedot because I like to dial my shots instead of holdover. Heres my dilemma, i think the vx3i-LRP pretty much has what im looking for in ffp and mils but im not a fan of the tall turrets and the one I played with at Cabelas didnt have that great of a turret on it.
So, im wondering if i should go with the vx5hd, then have the custom shop make me a set of mil based CDS turrets to put on the scope. ( I read somewhere once that they can do plain mil or moa CDS). Then I can use the 3-15 x44 with the firedot duplex and dial in mils.
Ive looked at vortex, nightforce, leupold, meopta, and zeiss and so far this is the best solution I can come up with. What are yall's thoughts on going this route? Best i can tell is the upgrade to the vx5hd glass is better than the vx3i in lowlight.
Also, im open to other options if anyone has anything I may have overlooked.
