Before I bought my first VX-3, 3-5-10x40, I had Vari-X 2's and 3's and a few Redfields but for serious hunting I used two Swarovski's, 30 mm 2.2-10x42. They were one heavy scope, and after a few hours they became heavier, but they cut the glare of the sun, let in plenty of light with good definition. Then I bought my first VX-3 Boone & Crockett and discovered it did everything and more than my two Swarovski's at half the weight and soon discovered the Alumina lens covers. I was hooked and both Swarovki's were gone along with the older Leupolds and all but one Redfield on a Savage 99F. My pre-64 M70's all wear Leupolds with Alumina covers except the 220 Swift. I don't have the heart to replace the Lyman 15X SuperTarget Spot scope.
