I like Swaroski just because of how clear it is but I don't have the money to buy one but when I do I will buy one.

I agree!!! I personally think Nikon is where its at...for the money! I mean are Zeiss and Swarvoski better....probably....but when I can buy 2-3...maybe even 4 Nikons for the price of a Swavoski...I mean come on. I'm not rich and I don't have anything against those who can afford a Swarvoski....I'll definitely have one if I win the lottery LOL!! I have a Nikon Omega on my TC Triumph and plan on getting a Nikon Monarch 2.5-10X42 for my Browning in the very near future.----Dr ASUS

I disagree with the comment about leupold being best deal for the money. I did a little research on entry level scopes for a guy($200 range) and came up with these specs. these are all 3x9x40

Burris Fullfield II
eye relief-3.1"-3.8"
light transmission- 95%
MOA adjustments- 1/4" @100 yards max adjustment 50
actual maximum magnification- 9x
lifetime warranty
manufactured in both the USA and Philipines(depends on demand)

Nikon Buckmaster
eye relief- 3.6"
light transmission- 92%
MOA adjustments- 1/4" @100 yards max adjustment 80
actual maximum magnification- 9x
lifetime warranty
manufatured somewhere in asia

Leupold rifleman
eye relief- 3.7"
light transmission- 82%
MOA adjustments- 1/2"@100yards max adjustment 56 elevation 52 windage
lifetime warranty
manufactured in USA

The way I see it the Leupold doesnt even fit into the same class even though it costs the same amount. The only reason i can think of is the whole made in USA thing but IMO that is crap. I am pretty sure thats why GM and Chrysler just had to take a bail out from government and are still on a pretty slippery slope. It just doesnt make sense to me an inferior product for the same price its just stupid.
