    My advice is: if you want quality at a good price - get a Leupold VX3. They flat out work (9 times out of 10).

    If you're after something a bit fancy (e.g a Euro scope), save up a considerable amount more and buy the very best. Don't go half way.

    I've had a lot of trouble with the mid-range 'entry level' European scopes. Yes, they've got great glass, and the manufacturers use it as a main selling point, but corners are cut in non-visible areas (I.e reliability of turrets, durability, water/fog proofness etc).

    Nothing sucks more than seeing crystal clear misses! Mechanical reliability should be the first priority, and glass second.

    Just my opinion though.
