Leupold scopes

[dickyboy 1]

I've bought myself a remi 700 VL SS thumbhole(John Galway to blame for that piece of inspiration) and was going to stick a S+B vari scope on top, or scope of similar quality up to £700 ish

 

The keeper and I are toying with getting an Archer nightvision setup but the Julian(the guy who makes them) reckons they work best on a Leupold scope or raptor(which seem too cheap)

 

Are leupold as good as the other brand, S+B, Swarzki, Meopta? And if so which leupold is better? i was thinking VX111 or Mk4? It has to be paralax adjustable

 

if you think leupold aren't up to the job can you suggest a variable scope with paralax adjust(prefably on the side) in the range of 3-20 power(not that exact span something like 6-20 or 4-16 or whatever) up to £700 and has to work well with Archer nightvision

 

Thank you

I've a Leupold VX-III 4.5-14x50 on my .22lr at the moment I've not used it at night yet - too much work on. But, during the daytime the glass is really impressive to my eyes (own a Nightforce for comparison). The one small thing is the eye relief can be a little fussy but I can't find any fault with the scope at all. I like it a lot, it's here to stay irwilley on Ebay does some good deals on them.

dickyboy as john g says and more iv got my leupold on a annie17hmr at the moment with the archer on that its an awsome bunny basher was out on wed night and scored 12 bunnies for 14 shots on the same grass field furthest was 90yds nearest 45yds .had the same set up on a 17rem and that sorted charlie out to 150yds,as julian at starlight says leupold are the best for the archer and if you get rid of the archer you still have a top scope.

dont be shy get out and buy!

i've got a leupold on my .243 and regularly use it in both dawn and dusk stalking, lamping at night target work, it's a 6.5x20x50 LRT/M1 Not cheap by all means, but quality speaks volumes. i'm shooting foxes at 400 yards and slightly over at night so it gets my vote..........What you waiting for.

Hi

 

I use a VXII 3-9x40 on my Swedish Mauser, and

I just love the scope.

 

Cheers
