[QUOTE="fiftybmg, post: 1905497, member: 96316"] When I went shopping for a long range scope, I took my Leupold VX1 3-9 along. I compared a number of scopes by focusing on distant brickwork. Exposed brickwork has a regular pattern, which at a distance it's easy to see if the lines stay true under magnification. The final test was the sight picture compared to the Leupold. If it didn't look as good to me, I discarded it. When you evaluate scopes, have something to reference against. Any scope on it's own seems like it could be ok, it's only by comparison that your eye registers the difference. [/QUOTE]
