Leupold Rifleman Scope 3x9

Does anyone own this scope? How has it performed? What caliber gun is it on? Wondering if this is an adequate scope to top my sons .280 with. Thanks.

I hunt with the Leupold Vari-X II, I love it. I would spend the few dollars more for the Vari-X II over the Rifleman model. Just my 2 cents

+1, +2, +3 ....VX II is over the top quality compared to the Rifleman scope IMO.
Just my 3 $

I've got the VariX II on my .280 now and I love that scope. I don't really want to spend the $450 on a scope for it at this point.

They don't make the vari-x models anymore. The current models are VX 1,2, or 3.

I put a VX 1 on my grandson's rifle. I thought it was better than the Rifleman and not too much more money.

If I was looking for a good inexpensive scope I would look at the Minox demos that Cameraland has on sale in the classifieds on MM. Some of those are less than half price.

Friend of mine has a 3-9x50 rifleman on a 338 which I have had the privilege of shooting a few times. Scope is clear, nice eye relief, and gathered light well as we were shooting around sunset. Nice scope for the money.
