Not much in performance and about $30 in cost.

With the VX-I you can have the reticle changed, not so with the Rifleman...

I have replaced my reticles in 2 deer rifles and had the Heavy Duplex put in, it really helps in low light...I had the VX-II Compact on my 541-T sent back and had the parallex adjusted to 75 yards...So there are some advantages...

btw...I'm in Asheboro...Good luck this season...

The VX-I also has better lens coatings.
