[QUOTE="Paladin300, post: 2959647, member: 115299"] You guys can argue over who the best is all day long. I will just state this fact. There are more Leupold's on rifles in Alaska and Africa than probably all other brands combined, at least that has been my observation through the years. I have several friends that guide in both places and they all use Leupolds on their personal rifles. In those parts of the world a malfunction could cost you not just game or your lively hood but your life. The second most popular brand is S&B, again just my observations. The US Military use primarily NF, S&B, and Leupold. In law enforcement NF & Leupold hold the top spots in the US. Those are the three most respected brands in the industry used by professionals. Just my observations. There are others but their percent of the market is not a fraction of what these companies hold. TT and ZCO are becoming the standard for professional competitive shooters and Vortex is also in the mix. Again these guys all depend on them for their lively hood and by extension their lives. You can't really go wrong with any of them. TT (formerly Premier) and ZCO are the new kids on the block so their continued quality control is subject to change but S&B, NF and Leupold have been around forever. One of the reason Leupold sees a slightly hire issue count is because they outnumber all other brands 3-1. Just saying! Old man thought here! If it ain't broke don’t go trying to fix it! I love innovation and playing with new toys at the range but when it comes to putting meat on the table or defending my life. I will take the tried and true. From a LRH perspective most will never need more than a Leupold, S&B or NF can offer. [/QUOTE]
