I'd had a Nikon 440 and really liked it. Never had any issues with it, but I recently upgraded to the Leupold RX2 and so far it is awesome. I haven't had a chance to take it to the woods yet though. I will this weekend and expect to still like it. It has a ton of different modes. I think it's overkill for most guys including myself but I got it for less than a new Nikon so I went ahead and got it.
