So I'm wanting to buy a new rifle scope since mine is pushing 30 years old. I've been looking at a Leupold vx-3i 4.5-14x50 and a Zeiss terra 4-12x50. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations. The only scope I've ever used is a Simmons so I don't know much about these brands. I want to spend 550$ or less. Thanks

Can't believe I'm gonna say this but if those are you're two choices I'd go with the Leupold. I haven't heard good things about the Terra line.

Vortex would be my choice in that price range. Those Terra's are awful in low light from the one experience I have hunting with them This Vortex is the way I would go..

I've got a couple of 50mm Vortex scopes for sale right now in the Classifieds... but they are a little more than $550. They are both great dawn/dusk scopes.
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

Do you know of something better I might could look at @bill? Vortex Viper, Trijicon Accupoint or Meopta Meopro are all better in low light in my opinion.
