I would check out sightron SI model 3x9x40MM
The scope has a lifetime warranty no question asked.The scope is made in ***an and from what I here from guys who have them they are on top when it comes to the bushnell banners and simmons scope .
The company is located in n.c. and there cutomer service I here is outstanding

I have a Nikon Omega on my Triumph, and just ordered another for the new Endeavor, I have quite a few scopes and have tried many others, but this one seems very well suited to muzzleloading. Lee

My two choices are easy.... either the new Bushnell 3200 with a Ballistic Reticule or the new Leupold Ultimate Slam.

I have a Leupold VX-II, 3x9x40 on my Knight Disc...

I have a Leupold VX-II, 3x9x40on my Ruger M-77 in .243...

I have a Leupold VX-II Compact, 3x9x33 on my Remungton 541-T .22...

Now, what was the question???

I love my Nikon Omega!

I buy Leupold when I can afford it. When I can't, I buy Bushnell. I've never been disappointed with either.

only use Leupold-use the muzzleloader/shotgun scopes on my MLs and shotguns...

The Nikon Omega is a great choice. Excellent glass, excellent clarity, outstanding eye relief, and a great warranty. Other good scopes are the Bushell Elite 3200 and 4200, the Leupold line of scopes, and a scope I have had excellent luck with is a simple Nikon 2-7x32mm Pro Staff for shotgun and muzzleloader. Its small, light weight, excellent glass, and great eye relief. Plus the price of the scope is user friendly.

IMO, you can't go wrong with Nikon or Leupold. I lean toward Nikon though. As for Bushnell, anything below an Elite 3200 just isn't worth it. I've seen way too many pissed off people who bough cheap Wal-Mart Bushnell's.
