I need a compact scope along the same size as the Leupold 1-4x20. The
problem is I need it in GLOSS & I pnly see the Matte now from
Leupold. Does anyone make a clear , quality GLOSS compact
scope or fixed in a small short size? Also what is the
difference between a WIDE duplex & regular Duplex reticle in
the Leupold line?

Here are some compact/semi-compact Leupolds that come in gloss:

All the scopes above except the last one (FXII 4x33) are under 10 inches in length. The top 2 (FXIII 1.5-5x20 and FXI 4x28) are barely over 9 inches in length. I do not know about Burris so I'll have to leave that one to someone else. What type of rifle is the scope going on? |

I agree. The Weaver V3 is a great scope. I believe though, it is only available in a matte finish. DOGMAN is looking for a scope with a gloss finish.

he can send it out to get coated. Not very expensive. |

I really like the Leupold Rimfire 4x, but am I correct in
saying it is only labeled RIMFIRE because of the fixed
parallex of 60yards? If so- will this stand up to alot of 223.....

I believe you are correct but I would contact Leupold for verification:
http://www.leupold.com/hunting-and-shooting/contact-us/sales -u-s/
You may also want to ask them if they can set the parallax to 100 yds. if you are putting it on a .223. They should be able to do this but there might be a small charge.

You asked if the Weaver scope was well made. I have had a V3 on a 12ga slug gun for years and it retains zero year after year after year! IMO it is one of optics best buys.
