Of the three the Leupold the weaver has shorter eye relief and the buckmasters is dimmer than the leupy or Nikon monarchs.

Regarding others, I have some Vortex binoculars that I am very impressed with. I have not looked through their scopes but I would if possible, because I suspect they may be the best in the price range.

Bushnell Elite 4200 3-9x40. Excellent glass with rainguard. Fully multicoated optics. I have a 4200 2-10 and think the optics are better than my Leupold Vari X II 2-7. If you shop around online you can sometimes find the Bushnell for around $250.

Trijicon seems to be unavailable in France.
I've never heard speaking of Vortex.
Bushnell Elite are easier to find.

I will consider all your propositions.

Hello, I compared a Nikon Buckmasters and a Leupold VX-II (3-9x40).

I chose the Nikon.

Thank you for your advice.

The smartest thing you could have done! You actually looked through the scopes, & chose the one that's best for you!

Now be sure to send us pix of your game!

You picked the best of the best! Rifle, caliber, and scope!
