I just bought one for my 223 and tried it out today. I think the glass is pretty much on par with vx3 scopes and if there is. Difference I can’t tell. From what I have heard you will only notice in low light. Dials are a bit cheap feeling but seem to work as well as anything I have seen. I am not a serious gun enthusiast yet but would have no issues buying another. I think they are as great as any Leupold product
There is nothing wrong with that scope. P&D told me their Leupold rep told them the glass and coatings are a step up from what the VX2 was. That is a damn good scope for the price.
After comparing the 2 in person the VXF has a turret system that doesn’t lock and is more sloppy then the crisp locking VX3.
I will be looking for a VX3 with the CDS Dial System After Comparing The Two Side By Side
