Depends on the state. You can always take the battery out if hunting in a state that doesn’t allow it.

I believe the anti-cant feature of the VX-6HD makes it illegal in Idaho, even without a battery in it.

That’s still up for debate. Kinda like our state’s definition of “area” when it comes to feeding.

Agree, in my opinion it'll only apply if you give the warden a reason to make it apply.

My out west gun has a VX-6HD on it. If I ever go to Idaho, it’ll be with me minus the battery. 😉

If you want first focal plane, then Schmidt-Bender hands down for a western scope. Not unusual to find sales on them.

None of the one you named will be as bright or as clear.

Gotta wonder who dreams some of this arbitrary crap up...


They also don't allow rifles heavier than 16 lbs. Who does that impact except the goober trying to carry it?
