Vortex is good performance for the money
“I like Nikon for the money and performance.”
Everything in our house that has a scope has a Nikon BDC. Great value for the money AND a lifetime warranty. Can’t beat that.
Our spotting scope is a Redfield. Once again, value for the money. We do have a pair of Steiner Marine binoculars that I won years ago in a sales contest. Those things are rugged.
The problem with Swarovski glass is that most folks can only afford one before the divorce proceedings start. We have 5 firearms that needed glass. Buying all Swarovski would have been the down payment on a second home.

Problem with Belarus glass designed by Zeiss is the markings are all in Cyrillic, can be a bit confusing, but once zeroed, yer good to go.
