Its a toss up between the vortex and the Luppy rx-1000

They both have pluses and minuses. Comes down to the user

I bought a case from FHF gear, that has a lanyard attachment. Been a huge help in not loosing it in the heat of the moment

I think Cabelas has the Leupold RX-1000 TBR on sale for $299. I have the same model and really like it and that is a great price.

I have a Leupold RX 1000 TBR that works quite well.
