I've switched to Trijicon scopes. I have 2 3-9 accupoints and a 2.5-10 accupoints. Best low light hunting scopes I have ever used. Looking to trade a VX6 3-18x44 illuminated dot and some cash for a 2-12X42 or 5-20X50 trijicon accupoint...

It's under $1k and you can take it off and hammer nails with it and the quality won't be affected, just not sure it's the brightest.

As mentioned above it's a very subjective subject. I dumped my 3 Trijicons due to disappointing glass. They were good solid scopes but for the money I could do better so I did.

I just bought a Zeiss HD5 and was kinda disappointed in it's brightness right at dawn and dusk. I returned it and ordered a Meopta Meostar 3-12x56. I hope I did the right thing and am happier with the Meopta.

I've looked through Zeiss's many times and have never been impressed. I think they are pretty over-rated for the price and glass quality.

I have a vx3i 6.5-20x50 that does well. Trying to sell it due to reticle but it's a nice piece of glass
