I've used a 25X Kowa for a couple of years. It does what I've asked it to do, so far. About the same price as the Leupold.

Can find them at Champions Shooters Supply , or Creedmore Sports . I think Jim Owens still sells them as well.

A HP coach told me once that anything more than a 25X could be overkill, and cause some serious problems wih mirage at longer ranges. His two cents.

Regards,
S.
