Well worth the money - Leupold VX-2 4-12x40mm Adjustable Objective Rifle Scope

I wanted a scope with a fine reticle for my 17 hmr. The optical quality is superb and while the reticle maybe a touch difficult to see when sighting in on a black target it works very well in the field by not covering the head of a ground squirrel at 100yds so you get to see the impact. Increasing the magnification does not reduce image sharpness and you won't need a spotting scope when sighting in at 100yds. Windage and elevation adjustments were positive and consistent - took 3 shots to sight the rifle in. This is my first Leupold purchase and it definitely won't be my last!
