Well,

since about 1 year or so Leica makes their own rifle scopes - the quality is medium and there are not technical advantages over "other" competitors - and last not least: the design is not yet time proven. Leica has knowledge in building fine binos, cameras and so on, but if their scopes will test the test of time when a .4xx caliber or anything else bumps 2000times and more with it´s recoil against it, must be shown first.

My recomendation would be strongly Swarovski´s scopes instead: their optics is more crisp clear and brilliant, they have advanatges like SR-rail mount or illuminated reticles or the ballistic turrent - and they are in the same price range or compared to the technical benefits maybe even a bit cheaper (Z3 and Z5 lines)!

Just my 2 cents, but I deal daily with them both, so trust me - on my rifles there will be definetly a Swarovski and nothing else!
