Thanks everyone, I appreciate the input.

The Nitrex is a somewhat new scope from the parent company of Federal Ammo. The only review I've seen said it was supposed to compete with the Nikon Monarch etc. market. That's a pretty big jump up in price (and possibly quality) from the other scopes I was looking at. From the other posts in this forum that I've read, I was kind of thinking that I would get a lot of recommendations for the Bushnell...and I was kind of leaning that way - but I sure hoped I'd hear from somebody who's looked at the Nitrex. If it really compares with the Monarch, $210 sounds like a steal! Thanks again.
