[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1300545, member: 54178"] I totally agree with Joel on ultra high glass quality being VERY important. Until you have seen through a great scope you can't understand. Currently my best scope is a Bushnell ERS 3.5 - 21 x 50 with an H59 reticle (on a Ruger Precision Rifle). It's all the competition scope I can afford right now and it's glass is merely decent, actually on par with my much less pricey SWFA. And that's not a knock on Bushnell, it's praise for SWFA. But three scopes' glass stand out to me: 1. Tangent Theta (Canadian) 2. S&B 3. Vortex AMG (US made glass!) -> Tangent Theta is [I]extremely [/I]clear. I dunno if it's the coatings, the glass or both. -> S&B is virtually in a dead heat with TT. I just like TT's rendition of color better. -> Vortex AMG is just amazing for the price, or [I]any[/I] price. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
