I will champion the Burris line whenever asked,..I think they are some of the best optics available in the price range.
I am not a Leupold Groupie,...but I still own several. I have a 8.5-25x50 MK IV M1 and a vari-x II 3-9x40. Both are great scopes. With that being said,...even I have to admit that if you see more leupolds going back to the factory,..it is due to the fact that there are more of them purchased than most other brands,..therefore law of numbers dictates that the return rate will be greater.
why chase the game when the bullet can get em from here?....

I KNOW that the quality of scopes/sights used can make or break a hunt... even while deer hunting for the day or the weekend in the Eastern US.
I use Weaver scopes on my 22LRs, 22 magnums, and slug guns. They will not find a place on my high powered rifles.
To save money I buy used Burris or Leupolds. The guarantee is still good as long as there is no visible sign of abuse on the outside, or they have not been opened.

I love my Weaver scopes. T-6 and T-10 on my Rem. 40x's (308 and 22lr), K lines all over my sporter 22's (love the post reticals), a couple of V's, Marksman's and an old C on a Mauser 22.
I own Burris and Lepould's and they are very good scopes.
I have never readjusted a Weaver once it's been mounted. They are tanks.
