I'll 2nd that. Doug is good people and Cameraland has never let me down. The majority of my Meoptas have come from him.

I've gotten some good deals by calling Doug. The first time I ordered from them though was through their website. I also got my credit card info stolen that time too!

I've ordered from Doug and also through Alex at Europtic. Both good places but lately I've preferred to deal at Simmons because I like the guys there and would rather support a local retailer. If you know Jeff he will work with you on the prices.
I'll be there tomorrow morning but probably not in the market for a new scope right now. The Swaraovski Z6 2.5x15x56 is under $2000 now, and the new models have a heavier plex reticle that is outstanding. I've been telling the representative the last couple of years this is the reticle they needed and they have finally done it.

Ended up with a 4x12x50 swarovski Z3. Got scope, leupold steel rings, and a nice sling for 915.00.

Just get a Schmidt & Bender there is no better low light glass IMO. Scoplist has a Zenith 3-12x A7 in stock one sale and in your price range.
It is a heavy rugged scope. Buy that and thank me later.
