I was comparing the Leupold 4.5-14x against my Redfield. Price difference $569 vs. $169. And I would take that Sportview too, that would three that I own that all work like a charm. If you want to see pictures of my trophy room I would be glad to send those to you. Just having fun with this whole topic. You get what you pay for to certain degree but not everyone is going to appreciate the attributes of the Leupold like you do. Isn't America great, we all have choices. Thanks for keeping us safe and I agree that law enforcement/military should have the best.
