First, I generally think that you get what you pay for.
I do know that a lot of people like Leupold and I think that I am going to get one for one of my rifles. I am thinking about getting a 1x4 Leupold Vari-X II for one of my ARs. Does anyone have anything negative to say about Leupold?
Here's my questions:
I am real sceptical about all these inexpensive scopes out there, but the prices seem too good to be true, and you know what they say about that.
1) There are a lot of cheap scopes out there in the 50 dollar plus/minus range for centerfire rifles. What is the difference between a $50 3x9x40 and a really nice Nikon or Leupold $500 3x9x40 scope?
2) If the cheapy brands are really that crappy, how come there are so many out there? Do they have any redeeming qualities?
thanks,
