I like the Leupold 8X M8, too. I've had several. The older 7.5X is also a great scope. The mid to late 80's are the best made, optically. And Leupold will always fix it.

I also like later, PermaCenter Lymans; they are still excellent fixed power scopes and can usually be found at less than stupid prices. And Parson's in Ohio has parts for repair. I've sent back several for reticle change and re-sealing.
