VX-6HD or Polar T96?

Ran a s&b klassik on my 375 in Zim last year and won’t look back. Best over all hunting scope I own

I have a Christensen Arms Traverse chambered in 375 H&H that needs some glass. I'm trying to decide between these two scopes and hoping to get some input from those more experienced with higher end optics.

I have no way of seeing the S&B before purchase and have no previous experience with that brand. Leupold is the standard for many with a quality reputation all around. That being said, I'm leaning towards the S&B because it is something a little different as well as something new to me.

Any thoughts on these or possibly a different recommendation all together?
I’m putting a VX6 hd 2-12 on my 375 barrel for my R8. That said, I was shooting my 6.5 prc to 450 yds a couple days ago and have found my Nightforce 2.5-10 to be enough magnification to shoot out to 550 yds in the past. I would go smaller and lower profile rather than bigger. I may end up going with a 1-6 myself.

I would go with the Leupold 2-12, the Leupold 1-6 or one of BeeMaa’s suggestions above. The swarovski 1-8 and the 1.7-13.3 are also great options if you have to have a little more magnification and have the budget for it.
 
BTW, one of our site sponsors offers great prices on Swarovski optics.

 
Im glad to hear it went well!
Fixed or variable? Which size?
3-12x42. Took buff, croc, hippo, and a bunch of other plains game
