I find your question alittle odd. Asking about 2 low end scopes and 1 very high end scope. I personally have Leupold scopes on about every thing. Rifles, and handguns in both rimfire and center fire and also shotguns and muzzle loaders. I have them from 2X to 36X. I still have 4 or 5 scopes around that are not Leupold, but they are all for sale.
I find it odd also. We are comparing a Lamborghinni, a VW Beetle and a Whizzer Motor Bike here. Hope I don't give away my age with the motor bike comment.

Being that I mainly am a varmint hunter I have recently gone to Nikon Buckmasters side focus mil dots. They do everything I expect of them and more. I also have Burris Signature on my long range 308 and a Sightron 6x24 on a 243 Ackley. Both are top notch in my book.

With the 308 I can shoot 7" groups at 1k. Thats about as good as I can shoot on a still day. My eyes and Jitters aren't what they used to be.

IF I were to go for a top of the line scope it would be a U.S. Optics or a Nightforce. But living within my needs and on a fixed income it will be awhile for one of those.

Best wishes, Bill
