Meopta Meosport R can be had for $400+tax. If it seems a little high consider it comes with a quality pair of rings which save you money. So call it $300. And the adjustments work accurately. So you can zero it and hunt a season or two off one box of cartridges. That saves most people another $30+. Now we're down to $270. That's Chinese Vortex money.
If you don't like the high rings, grab some pipe insulation or an old mouse pad for a cheek rest.
Most deer rifles I see have lesser scopes on them no matter what they paid.
