Decided to spend some of the charter money on an upgrade....
Bought a Leica Amplus 6 2.5-15x50i.

Got charters the next few days but look forward to going through the process of figuring out which rifle gets new eyes and spending time at the range..possibly next week.
Initial impressions are great. Crisp clear glass, wide fov, illuminated reticle, zero stop turrets,smooth zoom function etc etc.
Bh was with me when I bought it......got home and he gave it a going over and was impressed.....so impressed it looks like he will get one.
The arms race is still alive and going strong....lol
Here is another pic.....

Need a scope for my T1X in .22lr......
Will probably put the Leica on the T3x 243 and switch the leupold VX3 from the 243 onto the T1x....because I can!

Its longer and heavier than the VX3 4.5-14x50......but some women like 'longer and heavier'....
And here is the VX3 on my T1x .22LR...because I can..

Nice swap! That .22 certainly looks worthy of that VX-3

Thanks....Have had the T1X for a while and didmt have a scope for it.....Both scopes are mounted with QR mounts so I can swap them out for the thermal and use them at night for pest work.
Now I just have to find the time to get to the range between charters and working in the butchers shop...
