Default Which Scope??

I have a friend that needs a scope for his Browning A-Bolt in 7 Mag. He has narrowed it down to 2 choices: 1. Nikon Monarch 4X12X40 for $369.99 or 2. Leupold Vari-X III 3.5X10X40 for $399.99. What do you guys think is the better buy?

Not to throw another contender into the ring but for $399.99, I would buy a Zeiss Conquest 3x9x40. It will blow away both those scopes you listed and is a steal at that price.

But if its not an option, go Leupold.

I WOULD GO FOR THE LEUPOLD. I WOULD WAIT TO SEE IF THE CONQUEST LINE IS GOING TO BE UP TO THE ZEISS STANDARDS.

Leupold,Burris and Grand Slam Weaver. The Nikon I have I had to put on a 223. just would not hold zero on the 7mm that I have, and that was after being sent back to Nikon!

If he desires an adjustable objective the he should buy the Nikon Monarch 4 X 12 x 40. If not, there isn't anything wrong with the Leupold VariXIII. They are both high quality scopes.
