[QUOTE="trader388, post: 18357, member: 2114"] Leupold turrets: m1 - found only on the the pure tactical scopes. Each click .25MOA. Can be zeroed after sighting in. No dust covers. m3 - same as above except each click is 1MOA. Target turrets - sit up high like m1,m3 but do not have the grips like m1 m3. Each click is .25moa. Not sure if they come with dust covers. Pretty sure they can not be zeroed after sighting in. standard - sit low to the scope have dust covers. Each click .25moa. Can not be zeroed after sighting in. It all depends on what you want to do. Repeatable accuracy: If you click up 5 inches at 100 yards and click back down are you exactly at where you were? The people I have talked to say you need US optics, nightforce, or leupold m1. Durability - USO, nightforce, and leupold m1...from what I've heard you can beat the living hell out of each. Reticle - Mildot is good but nightforce and USO offer much better reticle options which are faster and easier to use then mildot. (leupold only offers mildot) European scopes - way more expensive. Why? European workers ...especially in manufacturing are the highest paid labor in the world. Again bushnell 4200s are by far the best value for the $. ...if you just want to hunt. They offer some longer range that many use for PD shooting. [ 02-23-2004: Message edited by: trader388 ] [ 02-23-2004: Message edited by: trader388 ] [/QUOTE]
