BSA, I had at least 4 of those click-adjust Vari-X III 2.5-8's. I still have one.
They are good scopes... with the caveat that they are not particularly good in low, grey, western Oregon November light. At least not to my eye.
I sold several on the classifieds for $250 if memory serves. They were matte.
Thanks Jeff, you still getting along well with the VX-III 2.5-8 or are you ready to sell it off too
. I agree with some of these other posters that leupolds seem to be higher priced for what you actually get, but you are actually paying for a great warranty and CS as well and that may be worth paying the premium. I may be wrong, but after dealing with bushnell, I don't think I'll ever buy another one, unless nsaqam has another 4200 like the one he sold for dirt cheap last week
