VORTEX DIAMONDBACK 3.5-10X50 vs MEOPTA MeoPro 3-9x50
Hi dear folks! I am on market for new scope for my brother`s rifle - cz 527. 223 rem.
Hunnting will be in dark, so 50mm lens needed, not 56, illumination is not obligatory, but wellcome. 1 inch tube is needed, because we have brand new original CZ fast mounting with rings (expensive!), wich we need to use.
Highest amount to spend is about 900 usd. Will be better to not spend them all.
First we wanted scope in 2-12x50 or 2-10X50 range, but prices are higher then we may spend.
Finaly after seeng a lot of scopes here in Bulgaria, we must decide from this 2 scopes - VORTEX DIAMONDBACK 3.5-10X50 vs MEOPTA MeoPro 3-9x50.
Meopta is well known here in Bulgaria, and I personaly prefer it - for me is brighter and clear, 10 year waranty, made in Czech republic, BDC ret. Prize here is about 520 usd. Vortex is about 300 usd. I know Vortex VIP warranty, but if we have prblem must send scope to dealer, then in US and waiting. If have problem with meopro it will be fast.
Hard to decide for me, brother will shoot with any of them, he don`t care so much for scopes - need only ammo and animals
.
I will be happy to hear answers from hunters/shooters used this scopes or similar - pros and cons. And other recomendation in this price range will be fine.
Sorry for my bad english language!
