[QUOTE="brant89, post: 2421109, member: 49553"] In reality they are probably both made in the same factory. You can pretty much tell what the glass quality will be based on where it’s made. In general the glass quality goes like this: China < Philippines < Japan < Europe In regard to shooting Vortex scopes at distance, I have shot Vortex scopes exclusively for years mainly because they are the only company making a scope with exposed 1/2MOA elevation and capped windage with a Christmas tree reticle. I’m nowhere near the capability of some of the other shooters here, but I regularly shoot MOA or less out to 1000yd, and this year me and another member took 1st place in the team portion of a precision rifle match (including a 991yd tiebreaker) with targets out to 1050yd. I was running a Vortex Viper HS LR 6-24x50 on my 22BR and it performed fine. Only issue I’ve ever had with one was from Cabela’s bargain bin. Eyepiece was loose, sent it in for repair and got it back in like 2 days and have been running it on my 300WM ever since. [/QUOTE]
