UB and Links, I'm not getting into a ****ing match. All I can tell you you is of the 3 scopes mentioned the Leupold line tracks the worst of the 3. No questions asked. I spend many days a year at several ranges. If you click a NF or Sightron 4 clicks, it moves 4 clicks the first shot. Some of the Leupolds will, some won't, probably a 50/50 split. If you have a hard time with this go to some of the other furums and read a bit. You will find out fast that it's not only me that has this problem.
P.S. I still have Leupold scopes.

Brocksdad,
I dont want to get into a "****ing match" with you either so for this post I will come to your level. my name is jordansdad.
In 1970 I was 12years old and took my fathers rifle (while he was sleeping) and shot my first deer with a Leupold 2x7 vari-XIIc, since then I must admit I have been a Leupold fan but in 38years since that time I have not had one leupold scope fail (except when I was 18yrs old and cart wheeled down a hill with my rifle and my big brothers rifle, and broke both in half. Leupold fixed both for FREE).
In 2004 me and my nephew (goodgrouper) had a quest to see how far we could push the limits of how far we could shoot a varmint, we had pretty good success but we have a friend that had a sightron scope that wanted to stretch his limits as well. all 3 of us found out that the sightron was a pile of $$$HHHIIITTT!!!!
The next year our friend got into the VHA 1000yd club quite easily with no other modification than switching from sightron to leupold.
My point is Leupold was a great scope 38 years ago and it is now, sightron was a piece of crap 4 years ago and great (by your opinion now) but what will it be 4 years from now???
I know Leupy will still be good you cant say the same.
