Their is a large difference between a 250 dollars scope and a 1000 dollar scope. LOTS of people say they isnt because of verious reasons. 1 is they cant afford a 1000 dollar scope. 2 is they dont want to pay 1000 dollars because their cheap! 3 reason many want buy a 1000 dollars scope is they dont fell it that much better. Well, it is better. I have had most every brand of So called Hubble scopes
For the OPs 1000 dollar scope, look at the 3x12x56 Meopta . The new 3x12x56 Meopta 4K has lighted reticle, and at 1000-1100 dollars, is equal OR better to my older 3x12x56 Zeiss Diavary with #44 lighted reticle at a price of 1899. Its also as good as my S&B scope in 2.5x10x56. Their NO WAY that a 250 dollars scope will contend with a 3x12x56 Meopta 4k with lighted reticle!!!! Stop kidding yourselfs about a cheap scope being as good as a more expensive scope. Just remember this = You can dress a turd in Barbies cloths BUT that does not make it a Barbie Doll!!
