[QUOTE="rdsii64, post: 1007835, member: 13978"] When I first posted in this thread,(it is a four year old thread) my anwer was US Optics. My reasoning was two fold. (A) The fit finish and quality of USO products speaks for it self. (b) At the time I made that post, USO was the only company who was doing top tier build to order optics. Fast forward to today, and you discover that there are more top tier optics to pick from than when this thread was started. When it comes to optics we always hear addages such as "you get what you pay for." the inverse is you have to pay for what you get. In my original post, I didn't factor in price. Now price is part of the equation. If you can afford US Optics, Schmidt & Bender and such, this means nothing to you. However, if price is a major consern, the Burris XTR II is hard to beat when you consider what you get. I can buy a 4-20x50 XTR II scope for every rifle in my safe for the price of an ER25 from US Optics. For my money I get a 34mm main tube, front focal plane, a lighted reticle, zero stop, and all the usual features you find on scopes costing two to three times what the XTR II cost. (The 3-15x50 is under $1000.00) Unless you hunt two legged critters for God and country, The XTR II is plenty tough enough. [/QUOTE]
