I've got three Leupold Freedom Rimfires, and four of the Burris Droptines, all 3-9s. The Leupolds are better for range scopes, the crosshairs are very, very fine, and could get lost in the squirrel woods. I think the Droptines are better hunting scopes, to be fair about it. The Leupolds have better glass and are brighter, but the Droptimes seem to hold zero a little better for me (all these are mounted on either CZ 452s or 455s, or a 512). I bought the Leupolds when they were still $199, but they've gone up in price by 50% since Covid, the Droptines are available for $129 most of the time at Natchez.
