I`m an old guy and have been hunting and shooting since the late 1950`s. Over the years I`ve had alot of gun and scopes. I have had problems with every brand of scope except Leupold. I`ve got aprox. 30 Leupold scopes at present and have had far more of them than any other brand. I used to have several Weavers, all were made befor they quit makeing them the first time, and most were pretty good scopes. After I started going to Leupolds I still kept several of the old steel tube Weavers for my .22 rimfires, but today most of my rimfires wear Leupolds. I don`t know if your useing your .204 for paper punching or for varmint hunting. If it`s for paper punching the more power the better, but if your going to hunt with it first and punch paper second I would recomand a 3 1/2 x 10 Leupold Var-X111, that`s what mine wears. If you don`t want to put that much in a scope a 3 x 9 Vari X11 or Vari X1 leupold would still due all you need.
