Meopta 3X12X56 30 mm scope on my rifle! super clear, and meopta makes lenses for a couple of the "European" glass companies.
Re: Optics of choice?
leica binos and a selection of scopes. Leup., bushnell, swarovski, zeiss and nightforce scopes. Like the nightforce and swarovski the best.
Re: Optics of choice?
Nightforce 3.5-15x56.
So awsome I usually forget the binos.
I'd like a good pair of lightweight 8x32 or something. Leupold gold ring

Re: Optics of choice?
For good scopes and good price check out supersniper. Fixed power scopes but less than 400 if I remember correctly. The difference between 9x and 15x is pretty impressive so if I was looking for a good magnification scope and hunted open area predominately I'd definately give them a check.
