I have a Vortex scope I like very much. It's a Viper 6.5 x 20. I have four Muellers that I like. As a general rule of thumb, I've found that Mueller scopes seem to be about equal with more well-known scopes that cost about twice as much.
That said, I've come to believe that Vortex is probably better for the price than most other scopes. That said, I'm thinking of buying a Vortex Diamondback 3 X 9 for a new rifle I'm getting. I think they cost around $200 or so most places.
Does anyone have a rule of thumb for Vortex scopes? For instance, say which Leupold line does the Diamondback line compare to? I use Leupold for an example because their lines and steps in quality are so well known.
