I have a 2-7x33 Leupold VX-II that I’ve had on a lightweight .30-06 and now .308 Win. It has been problem free for 16 years. I’ve owned several Burris scopes and still have them on hard kicking rifles and they are fine. I don’t think there is too much difference in the glass of either one you mention. With all the recent saber rattling of late about Leupold scopes, I might try the Burris even though it is made offshore just like most of the Leupold components. Happy Trails

Ps: Another thought: Buy the scope you would buy for yourself. If she wanders away from hunting, you have a new scope!
