Help Deciding Leupold VX2 or buckmaster or?

[Bldrinker]

Just ordered a Weatherby Vangaurd S2 30/06. Im trying to decide between Leupold VX2 3x9x40 and Nikon Buckmaster 3x9x40 or is there something else I should consider? Budget is $300 yes I know if I spend another $100 I can get better and if I spend another $200 I can get allot better etc.. Gotta hold it at $300

Thanks for any help!

Get this:

Vortex Viper 3-9x40 Matte Riflescope

http://www.opticsplanet.com/vortex-riflescopes-vpr-m-01p.html

Use CalGuns 5% discount and save some $$

Vortex has a PHENOMENAL warranty ( identical to Leupold )
They are equal in quality to Leupold, customer service is excellent!!

If you are sold on Nikon ( some people like the "Spot-ON" software ) get a Monarch vs Buckmaster.

Also OP.....

If you are sold on a Leupold - I suggest the Redfield Revolution - It's made my Leupold, in Oregon.
Special now at OP w/ butler creek cover for UNDER $300 - Still can use CG 5% discount, I believe.

Its going to be a while. We just sold a couple houses and bought another. So im gonna be busy moving and doing a remodel on it.

The Vortex is nice but im not sure I like the BDC reticle.

Leupold vx ii ftw

Leupold 3X9X40 Duplex Reticle. Sight it in 2.75" high at 100 yards with 150-165gr bullets and you are good for any hunting. Aim for hair and you will have a dead animal. For hunting the KISS princple is best.

I like the way you think.

Have the exact same rifle and put a Leupold VX2 on it. I have been extremely happy with all my Leupold scopes

This. BDC isn't worth a **** if you haven't tested it to those ranges yet. Don't rely on unknowns when hunting. KISS and it's a lot harder to hit an animal in the pocket than a non-hunter could imagine.
