I’m also in the market for a great scope. I , unlike most really like fixed power with side focus. I have a Discovery HD 10x and a Vector 10x , both are decent , I find the glass to be just as good as my Athlon at the same magnification. Each have their faults, the Vector is nice and light at 570 grams, but only focuses down to 12yards . Other wise I’d buy another . The discovery has illuminated reticle but with it off the reticle is much too thin. Now if the discovery or Vector had the HD or better yet the ED glass with the better thicker reticle , adjustable down to 5 yards without illumination in the same light 570 grams we’d have a winner
