Rifle Scopes Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50 VS Minox ZP5 5-15x50

[Caba]

I currently have a Vortex LHT 4.5-22x50 on my hunting rifle. I have an opportunity to buy a Minox ZP5 3-15x50 MR2 Reticle for about $1400. Has anyone used both of these optics on a hunting rifle? Which one did you like better?

I have the two Minox ZP5 5-25 with MR4 reticles on target rifles and they are great. I like the turrets and the glass quality is terrific. From my research, the MR2 reticle should be usable on low power. Aside from the weight penalty, non-locking turrets, and Minox's slow warranty process I don't see any negatives from upgrading to the Minox. My rifle is currently 7.6 pounds, with the Minox it would be about 8.2 which is fine with me.

Thanks!

In case anyone needs similar info in the future, I bought the scope. The glass, turrets, fit and finish, etc is top notch just like the 5-25 ZP5s I own. The MR2 turret is clearly visibly at low magnifications and at low light, the four thick post are great for target acquisition. It's one of the best low power ffp reticles I've used.

I have three of these. The turrets don’t shift even swinging on my slings across my back.

Glad you went for it. You paid a fair price.
