Leupold VX-1
You are getting basically a vari-x II. The customer service from Leupold is hard to beat.
Just sent back a VX-II for a stiff selector. Had it back in two weeks with the selector fixed and totally inspected. Cost me about five bucks to ship priority and insured.
They UPS'd it back to my front door.
Also, you can have modifications from their custom shop on VX-I's that they won't do on The Rifleman series - just a side note.

Gone But Not Forgotten
I put this one on my AR and love it. If you don't mind the extra dots which you do not have to use them. It is the Bushnell 4.5-18x40mm. I
think it is clearer and brighter then the 3-9x40mm I had at first.
Look them over they are about 1/2 price here. You can also look at others they sell.

Bushnell 3200 first choice.
Weaver 40/44 series would be my second.

If burris still makes the Elite 4200 I would say get it. I have used several different scopes afore mentioned and like them. A gunsmith south west of Montgomery turned me on to the burris 4200 Elite and I have sence bought 4 of them as people like Cabellas put them on sale as low as $179.
Ill call him "Chris" told me if it wasnt every bit as clear as my ziess Binos he would buy it back ..Every penny.
Well......I still have them.

unless you are buying $30 scopes take a hard look at any makers warranty. Not just what they say but what other folks say about their experience with the company.
even the best of scopes can have issues no matter the price...
one thing you can do is to look for Demo or Samples. Swfa.com has quite a few discounted like new scopes all the time..as well as other optics

also Camera land has great deals on occasion and are great to deal with

The guy was looking for a scope in 2008. Hopefully he's found one by now.

No kidding.
Nothing beats a 6 year old $200 scope thread.
