Scope opinions?

[CUatTheEnd]

I have the Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x44mm on my Rem 700. Love it! I am sure you have already checked out Sniperhide's website if not, very good site for optics, and great deals. I picked up mine used but in mint condition for $400.00.

I've had several scopes over the years. I've had great luck with Leupold, the old American made Burris and Nikon Monarchs. Given a choice it would be Leupold hands down.

I've had Simmons and Eagles and have had experience with BSA, Nt Star and they have all been crap. The glass or "plastic" may have been good for awhile but it didn't take long and they either fogged up, lost and wouldn't hold a zero or you just plain couldn't see a .22 or .30 cal hole in the target at 100yds and very little if any resell value.

The reasons for Leupold are quality, American made, lots of choices (power, reticle, 1" or 30mm etc), they hold their value if you ever want to sell and the lifetime warrenty. The glass is very clear and good contrast.

My .02 cents anyway hope it helps.
