Anyone use 4-24 VX6 for long-range hunting?

[Wildstreak]

I have two VX6 4-24 scopes. I have not experienced any of the issues being discussed here. I have one on a 300 win mag and another on a 6.5 creedmoor. Have taken animals with both out to 500 yards. I have had no issues with tracking or holding zero.

4-24x52 vx6-hd 23.4oz
4-24x50 tenmile 25.7 oz
4-32x50 NX8 28-29 oz

I too wanted that VX6 after looking through them. But read too many threads on here about issues. The tenmile has great glass, illumination, same magnification, 50mm rather than 52mm. Even wash in my eyes but may not clear barrel contour with same set of rings. I too considered the NF NX8 4-32x50 that weighed in about 28-29oz which is the same as my Schmidt Bender Polar 4-16x56. I caught a great deal on the Tenmile and considering the NF was almost double the price, I went Trijicon. Now my buddy has a NXS 5.5-22x50 nightforce on his 7 SAUM, but to my eyes, the Trijicon had better glass.
