Default RE: Pistol Scope

I just bought a Burris 3-12 x 32 for a Ruger Super Redhawk in .480 Ruger.

It has good clear glass and it looks good around the edges, but it is very sensitive in the eyebox and the extended eye relief is tricky. The ahnd knobs on the Burris are not as smooth as I might like, and it is heavy at 16 oz. It does have good points though, and overall I like it, but I am thinking about ordering a Nikon Monarch in the 2.5-8 x 28 and trying it, just so I can get a compairison of the two and take the one I like best to use this season ...... and put the other away for future use or sell it.

Am I sorry I got the Burris, NO. It is a good clear scope, but I want to see a couple of others to compare by, and there are no scope dealers around where I live.
