I'm leaning towards Leupold.
I'm really not comfortable with a used scope bought from afar.
I`ll be contacting them tomorrow about new ones.
Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

Leupold
Hard to go wrong with them.

Get the shortest rings you can fit the glass you choose on.

I bought a Leupold  scope years ago to go on a hunt. When I put it on to sight it in it fogged up right away. I called Leupold up @ 11:30 am and they had a replacement for me at my house by 2:30 the next day with a prepaid shipping label to send the old one back. You don't get customer service like that anymore. I would also go with a Leupold.

Leopold does not offer silver anymore. Would cost me  $150/$200 extra to have a new one custom made in silver.
