I don't own any Nikons but I do have friend that use them so it's not like I've never looked through one. I personally have Leupold VX-I's and Fullfield II's so can personally compare those two from using them. Nikon makes great scopes but I don't and wont own a Prostaff. If I'm set on Nikon I'd go ahead and just get the Team Primo's one that's a lot better scope. Any reviews out there you guys know of that actually like the Prostaff over the others mentioned? I haven't seen any but not saying they aren't there.

As for the VX-I compared to the Fullfield II. It's like night and day difference. Leupold's customer service is the only thing they have going for them with that scope. However, when you have to keep sending them in shipping adds up. I've never had an issue with my Burris so I can't comment on how their customer service is but I hear it's not the best.

In all honesty I don't want to have to use the customer service. This is the 3rd time right now that I'm having to use Leupolds customer service for VX-I's and I've only owned 2 of them. I wont buy another unless I get a super deal like I did on this last one.

The Leupolds don't seem to hold up. Nor are they any clearer as far as I can tell than the $30 Tasco's you can get at Walmart. However, the Burris is a lot clearer and seems to hold up great.

Now that doesn't pertain to the Prostaff. I was just commenting on those since you asked if I owned either.

Honestly, if you can't spend any extra the Prostaff is probably fine. However, I like clear scopes as well as ones that work so I'd spend the little bit extra for a Burris, Vortex, or Nikon Team Primo's all of which are better than a Prostaff. The Prostaff is the bottom of the line Nikon. It's not bad there just are ones that are a lot better.

If I bought a rifle with a Prostaff I certainly wouldn't throw it away. I just don't get why you guys think it's so great when you can buy one a lot better for not much more?
