I don't think you can go wrong with any Leupold scope.

The Hogg VXR is really appealing to me. And its certainly priced right. http://www.amazon.com/Leupold-114933...pold+hog+scope

Some people say the VXR line has the older VARI X III internals. I have the VXR 3x9 Firedot and its a amazinly bright scope. Definatly a step up from the VX1 and VX2.
