I bought one of these scopes for the same price earlier this year and they are basically the same as a VX2 with a different reticle
they're along the lines of the cheaper vx1.
Gonna take some getting used to because of the looks but the vx-freedom lines are the new vx-2 replacements with the cost under 200 bucks. They have the twilight system the vx-3i does also. A lot of scope for the money.
