I was looking at a Leupold VX-R, but after recently buying my first multiple power scope (Nikon P22), I found out the BDC reticle changes values depending on your power level - that really sucks!
Since the VX-R does not have a first focal plane reticle, I'm taking a chance on the Burris 1-4x 24mm Throw Down PCL, which has a first focal plane reticle. Don't know that I like that lever at the back, but if you get the model similar to it without the lever, it has second focal plane reticle.
I handled one at a local Walmart - maybe a little heavy, but I'm going to give it a try.
MSRP is $419, Walmart was $299, I have it backordered (they haven't got their first shipment in yet) @ SWFA Outdoors for $237.
'Course, the Bobro 30mm Extended mount for it is $209!
