Seems there is a wide gap in what people define as affordable.
For myself:
Burris Fullfields\Droptines= affordable. Underpriced bargains.
Leupold Freedom = worth the price
VX-3 = more of an investment
Maven to Swarovski= an indulgence. Would have to justify to self.
Hawke Vantage is Chinese last I checked. Bought one for my 10/22 not knowing. Honestly, it has been better than it cost.
Droptine and FFII are Philippine.
FFIV are the Chinese models.
Been happy with every Burris I have owned - USA and Philippine.
Still loving my older VX3 and newer Freedom.
Was a bit disappointed in my old VX-1. Gifted to my Dad after swapping the reticle to the #1 post for his Marlin.
