[QUOTE="tutster, post: 93567, member: 5337"] New to this forum. Hopefully you folks can help. I've got a Tikka Continental in .270 and this gun is really accurate with Ballistic Tips in Federals Premium line. Talking less than 1/2" group if I do my part. Have been using a 6.5 X 20 Power Leupold VARI-X III, but moved that to a .220 swift I have. Decided I wanted something not quite as powerful which has a bit better field of view if I end up shooting at a moving deer at 50 yars instead of 250 yards. Am considering the following options. Monarch Nikon in 5.5 X 16 power Bushnell 4200 4 X 16 Power Leupold Vari X-II in 6 X 18 Power Appears all the prices are in the same ballpark. Would appreciate thoughts on each, plus and minus. PS. I know Nikon Buckmaster scopes are made in the Phillipines, is that where the Monarch line is made also? Just curious. Know Leupold in stateside, and the Bushnells are made in Japan. Thanks Tut [/QUOTE]
