[QUOTE="Sflutes, post: 1579722, member: 106464"] I have a Redfield 2-7X33 that I picked up for around $125 shipped on my Marlin 30-30 and am very impressed with it. However I also have 4 Vortex Viper 2-7X32 scopes on 4 of my hunting rifles that can be had for $149 right now at camerlandny.com For $25 more I feel you got a few more creature comforts that make the Vortex superior to the Redfield. While they both are very bright and seem to track well there are a couple advantages to the Vortex. 1)Is the maglever. I have never seen a scope that is able to adjust the magnification so easily on a rifle scope. Beats Leupolds VX3s hands down in this regard even. 2)Is the finger click resettable turrets similar to what you would get on a Leupold VX3 for $399 only they reset back to zero without tools and super fast. 3)The Vortex if bought from camerlandny.com will through in a set of Vortex Weaver style rings on top of all that. I am coming to a point where the little 2-7X33 scopes are my favorite for nearly all my hunting rifles except my predator hunting rifle as I just wanted a hubble on a rifle in my safe [/QUOTE]
