Best scope for a calling rifle?

[trappincoyotes39]

If your calling coyotes and the such and not bench rest shooting, then I don't know for the money that a vari x II or III can be beat for use and price range. I have a 3.5x10 and it works well can take abuse and it bounces around in a truck 300+ days out of a year and in 3 years never had to rezero it at all.

For something to go kill coyotes with and not be afraid to use it that would be my pic or spend a few more dollars and get the new 50mm low profile with diamond coat.

No way if I had the money for calling or deer,goat hunting I would spend 800.00-1000.00 on a scope for most shooting in my range and not trying to deal with bench rest and mirage issues.

Clarity is something I really don't see a problem with in coyote hunting with a leupold scope. Not to mention great warranty and a solid company.

trappincoyotes37,
Thanks for your input. To be honest I have never had any problem seeing coyotes well enough to kill them, even with low dollar 4X 32MM scopes. I do like to see the holes that I shoot in a target at 100 yards. It is in trying to shoot tiny litle groups that I sometimes wish for better better image quality. There has only been one time that I could have used a little better low light vision. I was calling across a valley in the Blue mountains, when after sundown I am 98 percent certain that I called a nice cougar. I was looking at him through my 3x-9x-40mm Nikon Monarch at around 150 yards. I wasn't 100 percent certain that it wasn't a deer, so I passed on the shot. Would a Leupold VXIII in same power range have made the difference? Probably not, but I can't help but wonder.
