Hello all. I recently purchased a 220 Swift, and am looking at putting a Leupold VX III scope on it with the varmint hunter reticle. I have a 30-06 and a 243 that both have VX II 3-9's on them, but I have never owned a scope with an AO on it, and I was just wondering;

1. what is the need
2. What are the pros/cons
3. would you suggest a 4.5-14 or the 6.5-20

I mostly plan on calling in yotes and bobcats, but I do like to go prairie dog shooting on occasion. Any information would help. Thanks.
