Jeff,  the scope I settled on was the Burris HBR.  I have two of the older ones so have no experience with the new HBRII.  It was only after I tried some of the other scopes I realized the slight extra eye relief of the Burris made all the difference in the world when shooting free recoil like I do. I bought the first because of price ($130) and finally bought another a couple years ago just to have an extra.  Needless to say the cost was higher.  The new Weaver seemed to be more clear at 200 yards but kept hitting my shooting glasses.  The Sightron probably had the best AO adjustment but also hit the glasses.  The Leupold did not impress me at all, plenty of eye releif but AO was poor, clicks were a mile and image was small.  I do run a fair ammount of tension on the front bag so that probably dampens movement a bit.  Have fun and be well.  Come to the Nationals in August and do some shooting.  Larry Cribbs
