I do have to confess, I love my redfield. Ill keep buying the expensive stuff. Cant get it out of my system. People have been using the motorcycle analogy, I can relate. I use to ride a harley XLT, I could put on 500 miles with no problem. Nothing wrong with the old sportster, just wanted better. I went to a ultra, then a roadking. Each one did the job, but some looked a whole lot better, and had a better ride.
I guess this is also part of the reason I just bought a leupold for my 300 monster.
