[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2424039, member: 115658"] Look for a good deal on a used Leupold VXII, VX2, VXIII. Then if successful, contact Leupold and ask them to check it out. This will involve getting a warranty service number. Leupold will go thru the scope, replace any worn parts (springs & O rings), clean & reseal. This will take about 1 month. I would avoid buying certain scopes that require original purchase ownership like production of a receipt. Leupold is not perfect but is a reliable deal. I have a bunch of Leupold scopes & occasionally send some of them back when they quit working. The lower price Burris scopes are OK and Burris stands by their warranty. If they can't fix it or the scope is obsolete Burris will ship a new scope of approximate value - no receipt required. Their FFII 3-9X40 is OK and about $200 or so. I have no experience with lower price Burris scopes. Scopes are usually marked up lots & buying a used one with a no receipt required warranty will save money. Under $200 is a challenge but not impossible. Shooting is an expensive sport, best to acquire stuff that will hold value then trade up when conditions allow. [/QUOTE]
