I'm currently getting together parts for a budget SPR type build and need a scope to act as a placeholder until I can do better.
It will likely remain in my possesion as a spare or used on a sporting rifle later. Leupold VX-1 3x9x40 can currently be had for: $199.99 -$20.00 Coupon -$50.00 Rebate $129.99 Net Anything out there better for around $130? |

Nah, that's a good deal. It won't have all the bells and whistles, but the glass is probably better than anything you'll find for $130. You'll be good out to 200 - 300 yards without worrying about too much drop anyway.
Lifetime warranty, so once you replace it, the Leopold will be fine as a beater or whatever you would like to use it on. |

Or spend that money on ammo and get used to shooting with irons for when/if you ever need them? Not going to run irons on the 20" Rifle. It's intended for 100-600 yard work. I have a Ma Tech BUIS on my 16" Mid Gas along with my PA Micro Dot. I have to revert to irons beyond 100 yards as I can't place the Dot with enough precision. Even at that my old eyes are not really up to it. |
| That current rebate on VX-1 scopes makes them a very attractive choice. Its a nice well made quality scope and very light weight. I have both the 2-7x and 3-9x versions on hunting rifles and they perform well. Even if it is a place holder, it is good enough to keep for some other general purpose rifle. |

Can I ask which seller is offering the $20 coupon? |

Can I ask which seller is offering the $20 coupon? I had bought some other stuff from Optics Planet and they sent me a card with a Coupon Code in the box. Of course if you don't have one just put anything at all in the coupon code box and it will usually "suggest" a good code that's at least 5% off . I decided to go with the VX1 2-7×33 instead at the same price. I've decided it will eventually end up on my CZ452 after resetting the parallex . The Nikon 4x32 is getting kind of old and I'm not sure a 40mm objective will work with the current mounts. |
