I'm no expert on scopes but I've found that Leupold has the MOST eye relief and the relief it offers is also much less critical and much more forgiving than almost everything else I look through. I do notice some other scopes are a tiny bit brighter. But they also have much less eye relief and the operating relief has a narrow margin of error.
I think Leupold offers the most value, for me, since eye relief is very important to me.
My hunting guns get their fair share of knocking around during the season. The Leupolds on my rifles haven't skipped a beat...yet.
