What no Nightforce? No US Optics? No Unertl

I've been using a couple US Optics scopes in 10x...for various hunting jobs...I like them.

I have 3 Leupolds and 2 "other" brands. Love the Leupolds! Would probably choose my Vari-X II 3-9x40mm with duplex as the current favorite. I also have a Vari-X III 4.5-14x40 and a VX-I 2-7x40 for other conditions/ guns.

I have a Leupold VariXII 3x9x40 on my Remington 700 BDL .300 WinMag.
No problems at all & I love it.

I use a Zeiss Diavari Z 3x12x56 and it is by far the finest scope I have ever looked through..I don't know of another that has as good low light gathering ability as it does.

I have a number of scopes. They are all very good scopes but the Nikon Gold is the brightest and clearest out of all of them.

Most of the scopes i own are Leupolds, but i also have a Zeiss, and a couple Williams, old weavers, old Lyman and others.

On my Krieghoff Drilling that i've been hunting with the most, i have a 1x6 B&L. It's a great scope!!! I wanted a Swarovski, but non would fit on my drilling the way "i wanted". Then i saw a new B&L that would fit, and it just had such "great glass" that i bought it!

That was many years ago, and i'm still happy with my B&L scope,
