I ended up buying one at that price, but haven't put it on a gun yet. When I do, I will compare to my Burris signature scopes and my Nikon Monarchs.
I really like mine.
I should have asked you to look through that one yesterday
Yes you should have, wouldn't have minded a bit.
I finally got mine mounted on the intended rifle-Ruger 77. As noted, it's a very high quality scope for the price with great glass. However, I can't get it back far enough to get it within the eye relief needed. I don't like offset rings, so it's a no go for me on this rifle. I'll probably go with a VX-3 3.5-10x40 at this point.
My Vortex VIPER 6.5-20X44 PA is very hard to get into proper eye relief position. My Leupold 6.5-20x40 VX-III LR is very easy which makes it much faster. To be fair though, the Leupold cost nearly twice what the Vortex cost.

Theres a reason for that ……
I was always told to but the best scope you can afford !
But what if leupold isn't the best?

Oh it's not the best ,but it works well and customer service is good when you need them . They speak American
If you're buying a scope just for its warranty you're buying the wrong scope

I agree but it sure is nice when and if you need it . Accidents do happen
It's nice when a true accident does happen, we'll agree on that.

I have only one Leupold. A VR-X Fire Dot on my MZ. Best scope I have and can't imagine a better scope for clarity and love the red dot. Bought it on sale from Optics Planet a couple years ago. Second place is a Burris XTR I bought decades ago and is a fantastic scope. Pretty sure both are Made In USA. 3rd place is Made In USA Redfield 3x9 when Leupold made them. Best bang for the buck by far!
If I hit the lotto I want a Nightforce sometime in my life. But I think my eyes are getting too old to reap the benefits. I'm more of a EOTech red dot kinda guy while wearing glasses.
