I have a Zeiss on my Kimber, very nice scope, very happy

RE: Which Scope?
 

I have always been a Leupold man untill I compaired mine to a friends Swarovski,while out hunting in Wyoming.I never thought there could be justice in the price difference,but I was wrong.I wish I never would of looked through the Swaarovski.I,ll keep my leupold for the 200 yard gun,but I am going toget theSwarovski for my 270 a bolt.I am going to look at the way the scope will always hold its value.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Well, it won't compete with a Swarovski, but I've become a Nikon scope fan. Well priced for the optics that you get. I have three so far, and until I can afford to even dream of a Swarovski, I think I'll stick with them.

RE: Which Scope?
 

I like Leupolds on guns that really matter like all my bigbores. I have so many rifles for varmints thatI would have $20,000 wrapped up in scopes in no time. Here is a 100 yd group shot with a Bsa Platinum 8-32 scope on a Savage mod 12 BVSS 22.250.I honestly don't think a Leupold could have done better, but than again nothing was at stake.

Zeiss Conquest - GREAT GLASS

RE: Which Scope?
 

I've had several cheap Simmons that have gotten me game over the years, but finally ordered a Leupold VX III, 3.5-10x40mm today for my Savage 110, .06. Yes! Can't wait for it!

Other: Schmidt and Bender

Best scopes on earth. Period.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Interesting. I would have given that honor to US Optics. USO has more ability to make exactly what you want in a scope and they also seem to give you an objective opinion on things like side focus. Side focus is more convenient, but you give up some parallax adjustment precision to an adjustable objective. USO gives you that detail. Others just sell what they make. A USO can be personalized to your idea of best features. Check them out: www.usoptics.com

weavers are the some of the best for their price, well thats what im gonna do for my anshutz .22 that im gonna get

RE: Which Scope?
 

Got a story for ya. About 10 years ago I bought my first Leupold for hunting. I had several for competition, but this was the first one to go with me in the woods. I purchased a 3-9 with 50mm objective and mounted it on a Remington 788 in .308. On the second day of deer season, we had freezing rain in the AM. Later that day I tried standing on a log to get over it, (stupidity on my part). I slipped and fell flat on my back with the gun slung on my shoulder. The objective bell of the scope hit a rock with my weight on top of it. It looked like a case of road rash. I was sick. I just bought the scope 2 weeks prior and here I was destroying it. Fortunately, I always bring a spare gun hunting so I something to hunt with. Anyway, 3 days later I was alone at camp as most of the other guys had left and the rest went hunting in a different area. I couldn't stand it any longer. I had to know what damage may have occured. I took a target and stuck it on a piece of firewood, took out 100 yards away from the cabin, put the gun up on some jackets on the picnic table, and fired a round. I was thrilled to see that it hit exactly where it was when I sighted it in 2 weeks prior.
That made me a Leupold fan forever. Now I know that Zeiss, Swarovski, S&B make probably the absolute best scopes in the world. But they also cost a lot. Leupolds aren't exactly cheap, but I will never buy another brand of scope as long as I live.
By the way, Leupold told me to send the scope in to get it repaired if I want, but never did and it still has the big scrape across the objective bell. Still works like a champ.

RE: Which Scope?
 

First of all...Why no Nikon? You can mention Bushnell and Swavorski in the same breath but no mention of Nikon?!?!?!

RE: Which Scope?
 

Swaroski

RE: Which Scope?
 

Leupold.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Nikon all the way!

RE: Which Scope?
 

Zeiss Conquest 4.5 - 14 X 44mm on my 300WSM. It is ideal for first and last shooting light.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Pentax Gameseeker. 4-12x40, with ballistic recticle.
Victor

RE: Which Scope?
 

Pentax definately makes a clear scope. i put one on my T/C which i bought at the end of last hunting season. i just hope it holds up to the upcoming years of abuse.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Yes, time will tell.
I have one on a .243 WSSM and one on a 7mm WSM, less than a year each.
If my Pentax holds up to these two, I will be sold for life.
Great price, great clarity.
We shall see.
Victor

RE: Which Scope?
 

Schmidt Bender is the best scope you can buy.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Leupold, only because I am saving for a Swarovski.

RE: Which Scope?
 

Sightron SI 3-9x40. It's new, but I like it so far. It's brighter than any of my freind's scopes and it was easy to sight in.

RE: Which Scope?
 

I've had exceelent results with Bushnell how ever id take a Leupold in a heartbeat if i could readilly afford it

RE: Which Scope?
 

Nikon Buckmaster 3-9x40. Excellent scope, especially when considering it cost less than $250 new.

RE: Which Scope?
 

I use a Simmons 8 Point 3-9X50 on my Savage .270.

RE: Which Scope?

RE: Which Scope?
 

Currently, I have a Leupold Mark IV 4.5x15x 50 on an Armalite .338 Lapua Mag. I wish I had not bought it. If anybody wants to buy it, send me an IM. Can't ship it till October when I am home on leave. $1100 get you the scope, and a set of Badger Ordinace Rings.
Scope of Choice: NIGHTFORCE

RE: Which Scope?
 

I love my BSA sights and scopes. A fraction of the cost and still just as effective as anything else with cheaper accessories. I mean I not going to put a scope that cost more that an m14 on anything i own but thats just me:D
