From your list, this is a NO BRAINER. The Swaro Z6 is way better than the others. Of course, it's way expensive too.

Best, best for what, you give such a wide disparity of options ranging from a $9.99 Walmart clearance item to a $3000 Swaro. You didn't say the intended purpose, the gun it's supposed to go on, the terrain to be used in, etc, etc. It's a no brainer what the best scope in this selection is, it's also obvious that the next best scope on the list costs about $2500 less.

Default Burris Fullfield II or Signature Series

Can't beat Burris for the price, I used to be a Leupold guy , that was until my buddy talked me into trying a Burris!
