[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 418433, member: 2736"] I have done the same as you except for the most expensive scopes ($1800.00+) and found nearly the same thing. Your comment about "your eyes" is correct. each persons eyes respond differently to the lens coatings and one person may have a different opinion of brightness. It appears that the MK4 Leupold is as good as I can find for the money with my eyes. The zeiss diavari was next but prices are out of my range now. The old M8 12X target Leupold was one of the brightest in a 40mm objective that I ever saw and used. For inexpensive scopes the Nikon's with the side focus are very clear and gather light well. There are a lot of good quality scopes available today and I have not tried some of them outside where you get a better comparison. But the leupold's are good to my eyes and wallet so that's why most of my scopes are Leupold's . Also I like the weight, generous eye relief and the durability they have. The important thing is to get the scope that best fit your eyes and needs irregardless of brand. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
