Rifle Scopes Budget Hunting Scope: Leupold VX-1 or VX-2 vs Vortex Diamondback?

[Maestro]

Trying to stay around $200 for a scope on my deer rifle, most of my shots are around 100-200 yards. Both companies have a good reputation and both have great warranties. Has anyone looked through both? (I have looked through both a VX-1 and VX2 but not a Diamondback).

Let me know

Looks like a nice piece...wouldn't a x32 look like a pistol scope on a rifle though, lol? Not that looks are the most important part of a scope, besides that it's a bit more than I'd want to spend.

I have all three. I can tell you that both the vx1 and vx2 are much better scopes in every way compared to the diamondback. Clarity, weight, and reliability. The vx2 is probably the best bang for your buck hunting scope out there.

Thanks a lot. I'm pretty sold on the VX2.

I have killed everything to date with a vx2. They work just fine.
Moving to a LRHS as my budget increased.

I use the vx2 on all my hunting rifles as well.
