[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 288337, member: 307"] MWH, I have enjoyed Leupold scopes (Vari-X III) for years and swore by them. However, they seem to be like a lot of other shooting gadgets, just getting more and more expensive. Heaven forbid someone add the word "Tactical" to something. The prices jump substantially when that's added! I just recently purchased a Nikon Buckmaster 6-18X40 SF with target dot and mounted it on my .300WinMag. I zeroed it at 300yds, put all the necessary info in JBM calculations went out and shot a 3.5" group at 560yds. A week or two later I was banging a steel gong at 650yds. That's all the range I have for now, but I intend to stretch it further. I was kinda leary of the $325.00 price tag because normally with optics you get what you pay for. This is a nice, well built, very clear scope. For the money spent, I couldn't be happier. I'm actually thinking of selling my Vari-X III 4.5-14X40 and getting another. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
