Trijicon 3-9x is a good option depending on use, I have one on a .223AI that gets back door garden pest control duty.

The only failures I’ve had with the Leupold 2.5-8x has been with every VX3 and above, roughly 7 scopes total failed between those models for me... The vari-x III’s I own have been bulletproof.

Trijicon Accupoint’s replaced the faulty VX3’s on up for me.
