    WTB 3-9x40 scope up to $400 Minox?

    Have my Sako A1 .222 and need a nice little 3-9 scope to place on top. It has come with Sako optilocks LOW so nothing bigger than a 40-42mm objective. (Not even sure if a 42mm will fit) . Found some good and bad reviews for the Minox ZV3 scopes. Does anyone have unused one ? or does anyone have a nice scope in good condition to sell for that price. Its a lovely rifle so don't want to put anything too cheap and nasty on it.
    Have had Burris and leupolds and if there is no other suggestions I will probably put a Burris on it.

    Haven't tried the Minox, but I like the Weaver v9 (3-9x38) - light, compact and niceglass for the money.

    I have a Bushnell elite 4200 3-9 that I would let go for quite a bit less than $400. Pm me if you like

    Hi guys,
    sorry to not update this thread but have been away from the internet for a while. I have put a zeiss conquest 3-9x40 and love it. such a bloody good package. It lives in my truck, and am comfortable shooting deer or rabbits out to 200m.
