What Scope?

[Buckriser]

I am looking for a new scope for my rifle. My budget is only around $250. Ive been looking at some of the Vortex Diamondback and Crossfire scopes. And a couple Cabelas Brand. Not too sure what to go with? I know the Warranty on both are excellent. I would like to hear some suggestions or opinions from some Vortex/Cabelas scope owners. I am also open to looking at some others.
P.S. Are the Vortex a better quality than Cabelas?
Thanks!
