I highly recommend, the Minox ZV-3 ... 7mm RM and it has held up nicely.

It blows the Crossfire, Banner and ProStaff out of the water. It’s as good, possibly better than a Fullfield II or E1.

cdb1, so you will recommend this purchase?

I ordered 3 based on many positive comments.

Some are claiming they are on par or better than Bushnell Elite 4200 3-9x40mm?

Yes I recommend them. It’s been over a year but I had my SIL get one for his 7mm RM, based on info received from people whose opinion I trust. Camera Land still had them so I knew we could return it if he didn’t like it, as long as the scope hadn’t been mounted.

I was impressed with the scope when I mounted it and played around with it. I have an Elite 4200 3-9x40 on a .270 but it didn’t cross my mind to compare the two. For my eyes the Minox is better than a ProStaff, Fullfield or Diamondback. It was close to the VX-2 3-9x40 mounted on my son’s 30-06 - to my eyes. It may be different for someone else’s eyes.

SIL’s has duplex reticle and no parallax adjustment.

I have one ZV3 in 3-9x40, and two in 4.5-14x44. All have excellent glass, and compare with scopes costing twice as much.

When it comes to scopes IMO you get what you pay for. Enjoy.

I had (Gave it to my son) an Elite 4200 3-9x40 (very nice) and if the Minox ZV3 3-9x40 is as good, it's a steal at that price.

I have a handful of Minox scopes. In general very good glass. My only complaint is their durability. I’ve had 2 fall apart. Front o-ring came out and the lensmoves around. Customer service replaced one and I still have the other in my shop. Both happened while on a hunting trip. I’m reluctant to take them far from home.

Several times I’ve run my ZV3 head-to-head with my VX-Freedom and it’s extremely close. The Leupold did better on washout with a full sunset facing West but that was its only significant edge. Minox had better windage tracking and turrets were more tactile.

Both the Leupold and Minox are 3-9 x and mounted on 6.5 Creedmoor rifles. Easily better color and clarity on both than my Nikons (which my eyes don’t mind despite their flaws) and a solid recommendation.
