[QUOTE="Caulder, post: 2833500, member: 126915"] I've never used the Amplus, but I have a Leica Magnus and its far and away the best scope I've ever owned. Glass beats out tangent theta, turrets are a little less positive than the TT but otherwise great and track perfectly, and I have no reason to doubt its durability. This is all to say that I think the Amplus is a great buy because I have had great experiences with Leica, and I would bet that the Amplus is going to blow the trijicon out of the water optically. All that said, I have always had great experiences with trijicon and I like them much better than vortex scopes that cost more, and if durability and a lifetime of service were my primary concerns, I would get the trijicon. Because I think both scopes would serve you well, I would just get the one with features that correspond to the scope's intended use. Is this for whitetail hunting where every minute of daylight matters? Is it going on a backcountry or sheep gun where weight is a huge factor? Is it going to take a beating? Do you dial the turrets frequently? The SFP Tenmile is a bit heavier. You can get an FFP tenmile in your price range (the 3-18x44) which weighs the same as the Amplus, and has the benefit of being FFP. The tenmile will certainly be reliable and track consistently because it is a trijicon. The Amplus will have better glass and give you better lowlight performance. [/QUOTE]
