For the same money you will generally get better optical quality for a lower zoom ratio, its the same with camera lenses. Want to make more complex optics of the same quality, it will cost more (and they will probably be heavier).

If you know of some exceptions to that I'd be interested to know though, I'll be putting a new scope of the 223 before too long...
