I upgraded both my sons, and my scopes last fall prior to the seasons first hunt. we both have matching remington model 600's in 6mm- short barrels. anyway I bought 2 LEUPOLD VX-II in 3-9x40 for our remingtons- WOW !!!!! this is good glass, and they will last the life of ME, and/or the rifles. and I also bought one LEUPOLD VX-I 3-9x40 for my thompson center omega muzzleloader- WOW !!!!! I really enjoy these scopes, low light, long distance, does'nt matter to me ! I also bought the RX-II rangefinder from them- WOW !!!!! ALOT of difference between these new LEUPOLD optics and my simmons scopes, bushnell rangefinder- BIG DIFFERENCE ! as far as the ones you mentioned I guess after you spend a certain amount of money you can't really go wrong ? my VX-II were not as bad as I thought they would be, same with the RX-II. just my 9 cents !
