I honestly don't think you are going to get a good answer on this forum b/c most guys on here think you have to pay $500+ for a good scope.

Take a few minutes and go through some of the posts about scopes. This subject has been beat to death this month alone.

As mentioned I have also heard those two were good scopes for the money. Then again I think my Tasco World Class Plus is also a great scope. Don't think they make them anymore though.

Only thing that I would say is that I would not go with a 6-18 unless you hunt open country. If you hunt anywhere in thicker stuff I would suggest dropping down to a lower power.
