Of all the scopes y'all have gone through, which one would you keep for all hunting if you could only have one?

Bausch & Lomb Balvar 8 . Can switch it to different rifles and zero is maintained in the bases. You did say one scope not one rifle.

Leupold 2 1/2 compact --- and it is also the one most likely to last forever too !

Leupold VX6 2-12. I've been a Leupold guy my whole life but this one blows any other one I've ever used out of the water.

Weaver Grand Slam 3-10x40 not the best scope I've had, but really good, tough as nails and probably the most versatile.

It would be interesting to see how the responses are broken out by hunter location, eastern vs. western.
