Which scope under $300

[larbike]

I am looking for a good quality scope for my .223 bolt gun.
I currently have a Tasco 2.5-10X40 that has started to shift poi recently. I would like to keep the price under $300 if possible. I mainly do target shooting at 100-200yds with plans for some limited varminting.
Here's a short list that I am considering:

1. Nikon Buckmaster 4.5X14x40
2. Bushnell 3200 4-12X40
3. Mueller 4-16x50
4. Swift 4.5-14x44

In your collective experience which is the best in this group,brightness, tracking, durability, value etc.) Are there any others you might recommend. Any input is greatly appreciated.

From experience with a couple of them that I own, I would have to say if I were going to spend $300.00 on a scope, it would most definitely be a Super Sniper 20 X. They track well, glass is as good and better than some of the lower end and mid priced scopes and the finish is great. Just my opinion. Thanks, Bill

For around $300 I would also consider the Clearidge Ultra XP 4.5-14x40. Very nice quality and is comparable to scopes such as the Weaver Grand Slam, Bushnell Elite 4200 and Nikon Monarch for much less. You can see more on them at www.theopticzone.com/clearidgescopes.aspx.
