The best palce I`ve found to buy scopes is at gun shows. I only buy Leupolds so I don`t worry if they work or not because I`ve never had a bad one. I just check the web page above and the first scope on the Leupold list was a Vari X 111 3.5 x 10. I picked one up at a gun show awhile back for $ 350 and got a Vari X11 2 x 7 in the deal. You really have to look for deals like that, but I`m always looking.
