I don't own a Leopold but have the Nikon Pro Staff 2x7x32 on my muzzleloader and slug guns. They are a great scope for the $$.

The Nikon prostaff probably has better glass then the Leupold does. YOu can look at Pentax gameseekers as well.

Do not buy that VXI. You will be disappointed. I bought one for my brother, and it had horrible glare, Back reflection and just plain constuction. I have a few shotgun scopes. And I have a VXII 2-7 thats pretty nice. Also look at the bushnell elites 4200's. I have never had a prostaff.
