You do mean Leupold don't you?
you could ask your question here. http://www2.leupold.com/resources/My...ndanswers.aspx |
and you mean "difference" right?..not "differents"
|
The VXI has friction dials and the VXII and VXIII has click adjustments, better glass, more reticle options and probably tougher.
Tons of online resources as has been suggested. |
About 260 bucks.....in reality.

May as well make it even more complicated and add the new VX3...
|
the new VX 3 has the new lens coating, thats the only difference as far as I know from the VX III
|
If you looked thru a VX1, then took a sip of coffee, then looked thru a VXII, you would see no difference.
Chances are, if you put them side by side you would see no difference. Leupold doesnt make a crappy scope. I have a few of them |

The VX3 also has double springs in the erector, this keeps the scope tracking well when adjusting the windage/elevation and should also help the scope keep it's zero a little better.
I have a VXII that has had to have the adjustments fixed twice now, always done quickly and under warrenty, but it's a pain in the but and I am without the scope for a bit. I have a VXIII that holds it's zero but has a few black flecks beside the retical, not a big deal but on a thousand dollar scope you don't expect to find the same things as a 50 dollar walmart scope. I have also seen two rifleman series scopes go bad in the last year, both would not hold thier zero from one shot to the next. I have a bunch of leupold scopes and will continue to buy them, but they are charging alot for the name, and there have been quality issues. I wouldn't just assume you will get a good scope because it has a golden ring. |
Some very good feed back ,Thanks.
I have a VX111 3.5-10X40 very happy with it. Stayed true for 25 years . Sounds like if I don't want to be sending one in for warrente I should get nothing less than a VX3 Do they have a VX 4 now ? |

My mistake its a Vari x iii .
Must be one of the better scopes ,had since 1985 ,been on lots of different riffle.Seen lots of hunts . Never been in for warrente,and still hold zero, shot after shot. |

I have one that I bought used about 15 years ago, a straight 6 power. Cna't remember if its FXII or III or whatever...but I would guess that it's from the late 70's early eighties. It has been on at least 8-9 different rifles from a 22lr to a 338 win and it still holds it's zero. I think some of the older leupolds were assembled with a little more care.
I looked thru a VX3 yest (I was actually looking for binos but remembered this thread - I admit it I am an addict..) looked pretty good, they had a vxIII, both 4.5-14x40 and the vx3 seemed much sharper to me looking at an eye chart across the store, I tried focusing both but the vx3 seemed a bit better. |
