If you could only have 1 of these, which would you go with? Not for hunting FWIW

I have a VX6-HD 2-12x42 with Firedot Duplex.   Excellent in every way.  The VX-5 should be very close.

I'm kind of interested in those two families of scopes myself.  I was hoping for more input from those who've owned or used both.

I have a vx-5 and think it's great. No experience with a accupoint. But if you ever have problems with a leupold they will fix it for free. Trijicon will not.

No experience with the VX5, but I do have three of the Trijicon Accupoints.  Two are 3-9x40's with the green post and amber dot crosshairs, and one is a 2.5-10x56 with amber dot crosshair. Optically, they are fantastic.  Weight isn't bad, and eye relief isn't bad on any of the three.  My only complaint is the fiber optic illumination completely disappears unless you are in almost direct sunlight.  We hunt out of covered box stands, and you can't see the illumination...same with the range, which has a roof over the shooting line.
Stuff I learned from A-Team: 1)Always pity da fool 2)Carry wire cutters (you may need to defuse a bomb or start a car) 3)Never trust a crazy fool 4)Carry grenade launcher/machine guns in the van 5)Know how to weld 6)Love It When A Plan Comes Together
