Well guys thanks for all of the advice. I went to Bass Pro today and ended up getting 2 Nikons. I got a Prostaff 3x9x50 for my 270 and my fiance picked out the Nikon Buckmaster 3x9x40 for her 243.. Hopefully these two will work out. Noth of these Nikons looked much clearer than any of the leupolds i looked at. I am going to shoot both of them this week so we'll see how they do.
