[QUOTE="planetwaves, post: 1485998, member: 84697"] I have a Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14 X 40. I got the model with the 30mm tube and the CDS dial, side focus and windplex reticle for my model 700 in 270 win. Found it on line new for $480 + $5 shipping. I am sure a 1 inch tube with fewer features would go for less. The picture through the scope is clear and sharp, and it picks up light early morning and at dusk when the naked eye is struggling. I have developed multiple loads that shoot very well from my rifle, and don't particularly like to order a custom dial for each load. It is a simple matter to produce a "range card" for each load that tells how many clicks are needed for each distance. I validated the accuracy of the range card for one load out to 600 yards and used that load to harvest an elk. [/QUOTE]
