Leupolds are good scopes. I have a couple myself. They are however far from the only scope out there that will do the job day in and day out. You can get a scope that will hold up for years for 100.00 bucks or less. I have a bunch of Bushnells going on 25 years old. Never had to resight them unless I changed loads or put them on a different rifle. I could never justify laying out that kind of money for a scope used a few times a year. But I don't have much money. Gotta watch how I spend it.
