My buddy has a Leupold 15-45x60 SX-1 scope that I thought was pretty nice. I can currently get it for $279 with a case and good tripod. I also found the Barska gladiator 30-90x100 waterproof with tripod and case for $209.
I want to use this to see .223 holes at 150-200yds on white/light blue paper.
Any thoughts on the differences of these scopes? Will the Leupold optics be that much better to command the price difference? Just going by specs, the Barska seems like a better option with more zoom and more light gathering.
