[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 1666875, member: 105"] I've got to agree with JE Custom. The Mark 4 Leupold scopes are not only quite good in low light and clarity but right now, since they're out of production, are a GREAT deal for someone with a lot of rifles to scope and with reasonable budgetary restrictions. Also another very good and even cheaper option is to get one of the Bushnell 6500 series scopes which always had GREAT low light and clarity features and now you get can get one for a song. My favorite ones are the Elite 6500 2.5-16x42 scopes. The erectors aren't really dial friendly but once you have them set they'll stay set forever even on magnums on lightweight rifles. BUT!!! Having said all that I'm a huge fan of the NightForce NXS and SHV scopes with 56mm lenses and intend to get at least one NF ATACR scope for ultimate low light performance. My gunsmith has a lot of clients that have nearly unlimited scope budgets and he says that they almost all agree that the NF ATACR scopes have the low light and clarity edge on anything else they've ever tried. Now to quit stalling and get one but it's painful knowing I can easily get 3 SHV scopes for the same money... LOL [/QUOTE]
