Which scope is better?

[Tjv787]

Nikon 3-9x40 BDC Reticle scope or the Weaver Kaspa 3-9x40 scope?

Nikon is very good value my friend!!but if you can afford a wee bit more go with Zeiss...

Thanks!
Any one has opinions on the Kaspa
Weaver

Kaspa are no good. Low end glass and very unreliable adjustments.

Nikon for the win.

As a recent Nikon convert, I'd have to echo the above.

Well I have 3 of the Kaspa 3-9x40, two have the ballistic reticle. Glass is clear on all 4, two are on 308s, one on 22. No issues with mine. Good inexpensive hunting scope and better than any Bushnell and Tasco etc in that price range. The adjustments are good, not $500 scope good but they hold. Might have to do 1.5 MOA when you figure you need 1.3 MOA for adjustments but good for minute of deer kill zone.

But most importantly, let your eye be the final judge. Have a look at both.

I recently compared the kaspa to several other brands. It was clearer then the vortex diamond back but the nikon is a superior scope imo

I'm not sure how good that Nikon is, but Nikon optics are good quality. I like old steel made in U.S.A. Weavers and the current production Classic K and V models very much but I wouldn't buy a Kaspa.

The Kaspa is Weavers bargain basement scope built to address this price point.

I have had very good results with the Weaver T & V series of scopes.

I had a Kaspa that came on a package rifle. Lasted about 2 years . Between the two, I'd get the Nikon.
