I got the Meosport 3x15x50 and put it on a 6.5 Grendel AR. Been thoroughly impressed so far and honestly like it better than my Optika 6. I got it around Christmas time from B&H photo for $399. Comes with decent Meopta rings as well. The illuminated red dot in the reticle is nice and my son loves it.
Its better to be a warrior in the garden than a gardener in war.

Meopta or for a hair more, Zeiss
I’d steer clear of vortex I agree with the first statement but please explain about Vortex. I have a couple and may be looking at a couple others to upgrade scopes. I’m interested that there may be something I’m over looking. Thanks

It is well known they have great customer service for a reason....lot of people have had the pleasure of using it. Really just depends on what grade scope you buy from them I have a Razor that works fine but it wasn't made in the Philippines.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

The 3rd came on a used rifle I bought. I gave it to a kid. Also, I was t impressed with clarity on the scopes or binos

Thankfully the 2 Diamondbacks I have, haven’t had any issues. They seem to be decent glass for the money.

I have several vortex scopes. Hunting and amateur LR shoooting. Never had a problem.
You gonna pull them pistols, or whistle Dixie?

Hands down, Meopta Optika5 3-15X44 Z-Plus reticle. Well under $500 when you can find one. They sell out as soon as they arrive.

I have several Vortex scopes and have had zero problems.
