I can get a Mil-Dot from Leupold in 3-9*40 for $369.
Or, I can get a Var-X 3 2.5-8*36 with the standard crosshairs from Leupold for $374.
The Mil-Dot seems to be in a class of it's own, and is not listed as a "Vari-X", so I don't know how it compares to the others in quality.
Are the optics in the Vari-X 3 better than in the Mil-Dot?
Any comments on the usefullness of the Mil-Dot for a hunter/target shooter/tactical (probably never) scope?
Mil-Dot's in general seem to run quite a bit higher that their regular counterparts, so I am assuming that if I get a "regular" crosshair scope, then I will be getting a better scope for the money....?
thanks,
