I just put a Nikon ProStaff 3x9 on my CVA Optima Pro this fall. 2 words LOVE IT! The guy at the gun shop told me it adds 10 minutes of shooting time....which I thought to be good salesmanship.

I then let my 17 year old son use it one night during shotgun season....he'd never shot it before. He shot a deer right at last shooting light and told me it was actually brighter looking through the scope than it was just looking clear sight. That's exactly what the salesman had told me....but I hadn't told my son that.

I put one on my daughter's ML and it is a great scope... in fact I was tempted to give her one of my "better" scopes! She got her first buck this year... that 2-7x32 is great on an ML.

Looks like I made the right choice. Do you guys see any advantages in someone going with the more expensive Nikon Omega scope over the ProStaff?

Make sure you check and see what Omega scope you're buying. Some of them have cross hairs so fine you can't see it. The ones that I saw that were like that were at Bass Pro. Others that I've seen were fine with a heavier reticle.
