I'm kinda leaning toward another 3 x 9 Buckmaster for my Omega. What have you heard about the new Rifleman series by Luepold? The are very competitively priced, and carry the same life time warrenty. As for the 629, I would like a little more magnification than 2x and I generally hunt from a treestand. So far a Weaver 4x or the Bushnell 3200 2 x 6 with a constant 20" ER is looking pretty good.
