I’ve been looking at scopes for a 6.5 Grendel build. How do vortex scopes compare to the Nikon Monarch. I trying to decide between a Nikon Monarch vs a comparable vortex? Thinking the diamond hp? Anyone seen good deals bang for the buck on rifle scopes lately?

Ive got a diamondback 4-16 HP im considering selling. Its on my 22-250 and just want a little more magnification. I really like the scope for the price. Ive also owned a PST and Razor and the diamondback isnt as clear as the other two I prefer it to the Nikon's and a few primary arms scopes ive owned or looked through

On my last Grendel build (12.5” SBR), I wanted to venture in mil world with a SWFA 3-15 MRAD SFP. I liked it so much I bought a 2nd one... When it came in I compared it to a Leupold Vari-X III 3.5x10x40 and a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x40 and put all of them on 5x to try to get as close as comparable as possible. At dusk and brightness wise, I couldn’t tell them apart when looking through them. Clarity wise when looking through the SWFA scope you could see a slight “bending” of the image on the very outside edges. The Zeiss and Leupold were clear all the way to the edges. I wouldn’t usually notice that, but I was looking for anything that set them apart or placed one higher than the others. Besides that, the SWFA is a 30mm tube compared to the Zeiss and Leupold 1” tubes. I like all 3 and would choose any of them.
I’ve only looked through the Vortex HS and liked how clear it was. I own some Talon HD Bono’s and really like them!
I’ve never looked through any Leupolds since the Vari-III line, so I can’t compare their newer glass.
