Personally I've done well with Leupold 6.5-20x which are half the price


There is a guy who posts here who goes under the name of "Formidilosus " who is an active duty military sniper who has seen every scope currently used by military snipers. He said recently that Nightforce scopes are the only ones that are basically problem free. He also said that Leupold variables have the highest failure rate of all the scopes they currently have in use.
