Just bought one of the 3-15-50 with the SCR rec last week from Interstate. Pretty nice scope for a $1000 FFP. These are very similar to the Steiner T and M series sans the glass. The SCR rec is pretty nice. I put it on my Savage FCP 6.5 creedmoor. If you guys are looking for a FFP optic and dont want to break the bank take a look.

I have the Steiner TX5i on my Larue PredatOBR. I would buy again in a heartbeat. The glass is amazing.

What's the application or intended use ? Cartridge and farthest shooting distance ?
Each of the 3 scopes you listed are "different" and most commonly used in the following purposes :
Steiner TX5 - extreme long range such as PRS competition, dialing in at 1000+ yds
LEU VX6 - excellent hunting scope depending on reticle and turrets
Trijicon - AR15 SBR , short range type rifle

The TX5 I'm looking at is the 1-5 version. Am I naming the wrong scope?
The Trijicon is a 1-6 power just like VX6 I'm looking at.
I want something for my AR that with good 1X power for quick acquisition and something I can use to hit at about a man sized target at 500.

Steiner offers 3-4 different TX5i variable power scopes
I'm very familiar with the LR scopes, but have zero experience with the short range/ lower magnification scopes
my suggestion .... go visit Carson @ Bowie, Chris @ IG, etc... and look thru the scopes you listed. Let your eyes decide which model you like best or least. Also, do some online research posted by people who have first hand experience in real world hunting or shooting experience
keep us updated on your decision

I have no experience with the other two but I did buy a VX6 for my hunting rifle last year and absolutely love it. I would put the glass on par with the Swarovski z3 at my lease but not with the z6's I have looked through and better than the couple of Zeisses at the lease (not sure which models hey are). Shot a deer with it tonight. Awesome clarity and light transmission. It really blows away the vx3 I had on my rifle before.
Just my two cents.
