[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 690175, member: 34084"] I concur with LouBoyd's advice, especially with respect to glare and contrast. If you are used to S&B and Zeiss, which have high contrast, don't be persuaded to look at Vortex (except for Razor), Sightron SIII or Super Sniper. They will not have nearly the same contrast. For big game hunting, you should stick with a large objective (50 mm or larger). If it were a target only scope, then 40 mm would be fine. Your applications seem to dictate a large zoom ratio of at least 5:1. How important is weight to you? If you need to minimize weight, then you should look closely at Leupold VX-6 and Swarovski Z5 or Z6. [/QUOTE]
