I prefer the Conquest.  I am just hooked on the clarity, brightness, and overall reliability.

I have always felt that the 4200 offers the best bang for the buck. Now that they have the new Rainguard lens coatings and the FireFly reticle they have made a great scope even better. I don't think that there is a better scope out there for $400. The optics on the 4200 are very hard to beat and they are very durable scopes as well.

The Conquest is the best in my opinion out of that group.  However, I think the 4200 and the Burris (splitting hairs here) come into a very close second.  Then I think its a toss up between the Leupold VXIII and the Monarch.
