Weaver Grand Slam.  3-9X50 any good?  Want to put it on a Ruger 22-250.

Grand SLam are good scopes.  It is hard to do better for the money.

What is the application for the rifle?

I will be shooting paper, coyote, and other varmints from 100-300 yds.

 

Between the Weaver Grand Slam and a Leupold VX-II which is the best bang for the buck?????

The Weaver Grand Slam I think is a better scope than the VXII, not only for the money either.

Grand Slam is a better scope than VX-II.  Grand Slam is competitive with VX-III optically and has some of the best adjustments at any price.

For your application, I'd go with a 4.5-14x40 instead of a 3.5-10x50.  50mm objective is more of a hindrance than anything else and the extra magnification is nice to have for shooting paper and varmints at 300 yards.
