I would not own a Vortex and have owned several Nikons, they have good optics but for durability they dont have it. Last year I went through two Buckmasters and a Monarch, after riding arround on my four wheeler they literally started falling apart, sent the first Buckmaster back, they sent me a new one, after it did the same I up graded to the Monarch, figuring it would be better, just more expensive junk, after it did the same i got rid of all Nikons and replaced every scope I own with Leupolds, needless to say I havnt had a bit of trouble since, Leupolds are at least four times the scope a Nikon is. And they are American made, very important to me, i try to help are failing economy by buying only American made products.
