    Can you get a great scope for lil money?

    Thanks Bravo4! I was at my buddies sport shop last night and he can get the V-X3 for $850 and the Mark-4 @ around $1300. Think I might go for the V-X3. Its a great price. Plus I'm not out shooting every weekend @ long range shoots. Just want to make sure I can get a good scope for under $2000...
