Ya know what? Why wouldn't I just get a Nikon Buckmaster II for about $100 from Amazon or Ebay? My needs are simple.

Seems to me they sell more refurbished scopes than actual new ones.

Every time I buy a scope other than a Leupold, some time down the line I wish I had bought a Leupold instead....

I have 3 Nikon scopes, a Monarch 1.5 x 4.5 with a 3 P #4 reticle, a Turkey model with that specific reticle, and a fixed 4X Monarch Plex. All have been fine for what I got them for, particularly the first two's reticles, but, for anything else, I'm with tractortad. The Leupolds always seem to be just a little bit better, every time :) .

Evan, if you have not already.....see my post in classifieds. Probably way down the list by now. I posted a while ago.
Would re-post here for you, but don't know how.

Well, that puts me on the horns of a dilemma, huh? I hear the Leupold comments; heck I have three of 'em. But now Mark pops up with a brand new Buckmaster II. Be careful what you wish for, huh? Gotta think about this one.

Understand Evan.
Don't have to sell it. I know you will make your decision on what you feel comfortable with. I wish you good luck with whatever you end up with!
