In my opinion there's not a dimes worth of difference between Nikon, Leupold, Vortex or Weaver optics.

Blanket statements like this, which are often made, are meaningless without identifying the specific LINE within a brand that you're talking about - what you say may or may not be true, depending on which line compared to which lines. There are huge, massive, giant, incredible differences in qualities and features between LINES within the same brand, often made in different factories and/in in different countries even. Bushnell Elite Tactical is a fine fine mo-sheen. Bushnell Sportview....notsomuch.
But each BRAND has varying degrees of magnitude of difference of quality among LINES, from the top to the bottom ... I can assure that the lowest Leupold or Nikon lines (Rifleman & Prostaff) are MUCH better than the lowest Weaver line, which is junk. Some Weavers are pretty good and good values though. Not sure about the lowest Vortex line though - no experience.
It's just way to simplistic to say *anything* about the quality or features of *any* brand of scope without specifically identifying the line you're talking about, each and every time.
