was going to buy one from opticsplanet but turns out there are bunches of people that sell this scope off eBay 50 bucks cheaper. I'm not too concerned about counterfeits like aimpoints on eBay.
Was going to buy Nikon but their retricles are too bold, was going to buy a leupold vx1 but less light transmission (91 percent), so I settled on a vortex diamond back (fine retricle w 97-98 percent transmission)
I have at least that many and like them all.
one of my most accurate hunting rifles wears a 200$ vortex and will get swapped out at some point... maybe.
if/when/if it does it will be for a more expensive Vortex and that one will get handed down.
