[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1199342, member: 63138"] vitaminado I have several Vipers, both HS and PST models. I also have 2 Bushnell 6500s in the 4.5X30. Also a VX6 in 3X18. The Leupold has the best glass though the PST isn't too far behind. The VX6 is out of the price range you mention but the others are close enough. The HSs are the cheapest and have the worst glass though I find it adequate and bang for the buck wise they are pretty good. The Bushnell glass is better than the HS Vipers though not as good as the PST or VX6. I've got one of the HSs mounted on my 9 pound 375 Ruger. Recoil is quite stout but the scope has had no issues so they should meet your criteria for tough. Actually all of them will take a beating. However, if you want to go long I'd recommend the Bushells. The 4.5X on the low end is good for something up close and the 30X helps aim small to hit small out there at 1,000 yards. [/QUOTE]
