Just wish I knew for sure that one can get a FAIR evaluation of the redfield line without their knowledge of Leupold as a owner/maker!!!! The Leu bias is so strong, I just don't trust the opionions to be completely fair????
The BIAS works both ways.
Some here dislike Leupolds intensely.
Some love'em.
Frankly , if you need a bunch of internet hand holding just to pull the trigger on a $150-$200 scope with the warranty coverage of the new Redfields, then you have some SERIOUS decision making issues. Don't be such a puzzy.
Most of the guys who OWN the damn things and like them have owned LOTS of scopes in that price range over the years AND can judge them honestly.
The bottoms line is this- The new Redfields are a damn good scope for the $$ with a great warranty.
If you expect $400 + optics for $150 to $200- don't buy a Redfield(or any other $200 scope for that matter)
If you want a solid value for your $$- then buy one.
Peace- out.
