I think the monarch is worth the extra $50.00.

The Nikon Monarch is a really nice scope! I would go with that one, but the Redfied Revolution is hard to beet for the money if you are on a budget. I have a Redfield Revolution 4-12X40mm on my 30-30 and i like it.

MAKE SURE YOU LOOK HERE: http://www.opticstalk.com/sightron-closeouts-an-incredible-savings_topic34167.htmlIncredible scopes the SII Big Sky and the SIII. Value that I don't believe can be matched at the price range even before you get a bill back in the mail.

Reticle is personal preference... Zplex in my eyes is best plex type...other than that all i would look to is a #4. Alot of variation in, just say, plex and #4, in different brands. Power is equal across the board for brands.

Price limits those options severely.

This one steps up the power range for not much more
