[QUOTE="JimmyCP, post: 1567770, member: 106166"] I'm not much of a fan of the newer mid range vortex scopes anymore. To me their glass quality has dropped compared to my older ones. There is quite a bit of shadow ring and mono chrome on max when compared to other scopes. Last year I ordered a viper hs for my wife's 6.5 284 from vortex, back order was so long it wasn't going to be in for the hunt. Was in a bind and orderd a Athlon Argo's 2 days from amazon 289.00. Long story short, the cheap athlon stayed and the viper got returned do to better glass at max, better tracking. Ziess has always had good glass, at least the few optics I have that are Ziess. I'm still an HD Razor fan, and Nicon. I would suggest if you have the opportunity to actually go in somewhere and physically look through one or the other before you start bargan shopping is the best way. [/QUOTE]
