[QUOTE="ntg, post: 790924, member: 32568"] Well, I've done some more reading/research. I like Bruce's recommendation in the E1 Burris. So here's what's still on my list, and those marked "*" are those I've actually been able to look through. (Some brief thoughts follow) *Revenge: 4-12x42 (Looked pretty good and w/ $40 rebate, tempting) *Revolution: 4-12x40 (Looks goods and like the slim profile, low weight) Fullfield E1: 4.5X-14X-42mm (like the better turrets) Fullfield II: 4.5X-14X-42mm *Vortex DB: 4-12X40 (good clarity, eye-relief, just o.k.) Nikon BM: 4.5X-14X-40 (want the hard to find mil-dot; not too sure about their BDC) Legend Ultra Hd: 4.5-14x44 Mil-dot (hear good things, and have binos in series that are quite good for the $$) *Trophy XLT: 4-12X4 (actually fairly good, seemed better than Prostaff. AO...iffy.) Trophy XLT: 6-18x40 (wonder how clear is at 18x and AO...iffy.) General thoughts. I like the idea of keeping it light as I may cover 5-10 a day when hunting, and it's easier in dense brush. I'd also like the higher powers for traget/plinking, but recognize it won't be any help is it's not clear focusable on the high end, which I've seen on some inexpensive scopes. Set my max at $350. Right now both the Redfields are very tempting, and I'd really like to look at the E1 and the Legend. Any help or thoughts? [/QUOTE]
