OK BOYS---we have had a good time ranting and argueing about Leupold---Personally, I have enjoyed the discussions.
Lets talk about what you want in a good rifle scope---don't bring up money---let's try an build your scope.
What do you want it to be.
I want it to be/have the following:
At least 40mm--50 might be a little overkill and hard to mount on a .22, which is the rifle caliber of MY choice.
Waterproof and rugged--without question.
Good glass without question.
Adjustable AO.
Good dependable and quick elevation and windage changes (read--Positive clicks) .
Lockable positions.
Lockable focus.
AO focus.
Coated lens.
4X 24 variables.
Let's let the sponsers in on this also by detailing the scope that will fit your options--and cost, if they want to post them.
This could also be a test ground for the sponsors to suggest customizing and model suggestions.
Blessings
